In the event that the District needs to open one or more schools as emergency shelters, we hope to satisfy the majority of staffing needs with employees who indicate interest in working at a shelter. However, in the event that staffing needs are not met, administrators, professional technical, and NNB staff who did not express interest may be contacted and expected to work.
Administrators, Professional Technical, and NNB Staff: ALL employees classified as administrators, professional technical, or NNB staff are REQUIRED to serve as representatives, if needed, per our employment contracts. We will consider preferences to the extent possible.
Employees who believe they qualify for an accommodation under the Americans with Disabilities Act related to performing shelter duty should contact Sheila Blue, Civil Rights Compliance Manager at crc@pasco.k12.fl.us.
Shelter Pay: Shelter work will be paid in accordance with Board Policy and the terms within the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Overtime pay for hours worked in excess of 40 hours per week will apply for non-exempt employees in accordance with the Fair Labor Standards Act.
Shelter Responsibilities: Shelter work can include a wide variety of duties, including but not limited to, registration and intake, dormitory assignments, assisting residents, general clean-up, and animal care.
