WORK CONDITIONS AND HOURS All job-related accidents will be investigated immediately. Cass County assumes no responsibility for injuries occurring in the employee’s at-home work space outside the agreed-upon work hours. The employee agrees to maintain safe conditions <br />in the at-home work space and to practice the same safety habits as those followed on Cass <br />County’s premises. In the case of an injury while working at home, the employee should immediately report the injury to the Department Head to get instructions for obtaining medical treatment. <br /> <br />The employee should not undertake to provide primary care for a young child during at-home working hours. If a young child will be home during the employee’s at-home working hours, some other individual should be present to provide primary care. However, if a young child is ill, the employee may, on a temporary basis, provide primary care for that child subject to <br />approval of the employee’s supervisor. Similarly, while working at home, the employee also <br />should not undertake to provide primary care for an elderly adult, who would otherwise require the care of a nurse. Telecommuting is an alternative method of meeting the needs of the organization and is not a <br />universal employee benefit. As such, Cass County reserves the right to refuse to make <br />telecommuting available to any given employee, as well as to terminate a telecommuting arrangement at any time. <br /> Cass County 39
