Employees receive time and a half their regular pay for any hours worked on an observed or paid holiday. On paid holidays, you receive holiday pay as long as you have been employed at least 60 days, and work as scheduled the day before and the day after the holiday. Observed holidays along with the day after Thanksgiving are fixed PTO days for all direct care staff. The day after Thanksgiving is not a holiday; it is simply a day that the training sites are closed.
*Fixed PTO days for all hourly employees.
If a person does not need transportation on a given day, please call TSE Transportation at (651) 209-3474.
As a reminder, transportation is a curb-to-curb service, meaning that the residence must provide assistance to the van for
anyone that experiences difficulty walking. Sidewalks and driveways need to be kept clean during the snow months as
well. People should be ready 15 minutes prior to their scheduled pick up time, and staff should be available at the end of
day 15 minutes prior to the scheduled drop off time.
Community job sites may operate on a different schedule of days closed.
Doctor and other appointments should be scheduled on days closed or at the beginning or end of the day. Make sure to
let transportation know if you will be providing a ride to or from the service sites due to these appointments.
In the event of threatening weather whereby the training sites cannot open, you will receive a telephone call. In addition,
WCCO-AM radio, 830 on the dial, will carry an announcement by 6:00 am. If weather becomes a concern during the
day and a decision is made to close, your residence will be notified in advance. Community job sites will be handled on
an individual basis and you will be given specific instructions pertaining to each situation.
