Good morning to all,

This year has been a winter to remember.  My system is being challenge with providing child care for the times that the area schools are closed because of bad weather.  Our call-in rate is sky high because many of our employees do not have child care arrangements for their children when school is cancelled.

 

Does your facility have a program like this in place?

How did you get it up and running?

How do you provide supervision for these children

Would you please share your policy and process?

Do you provide child care on all three shifts?

Was your program successful?  (decreased call-in rate because of bad weather)

 

Thank you for your assistance and sharing your knowledge.
