<p class="MsoNormal">Hi all,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We have several staff who are in charge of book clubs, participate in local community read programming, and/or statewide reading programs. Some of my staff read 10-12 books a year (or more) in support of these programs. In other words,
they are reading for work. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m interested in developing some type of system by which the library will give them paid time for part of the hours spent reading to support these programs. Not sure we can’t pay hour-for-hour for reading time but I’d like to offset this
even a bit. Does anyone have a policy/structure for this type of work time? <o:p>
</o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m thinking it could be included in our remote work agreements and would be a ratio such as: for every 4 hours reading you will earn 1 hour paid time. Up to x hours/month or year.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m trying to figure out what this ratio would look like, how it would be tracked, and looking to find other Library policy examples (if they exist.)
