<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"">A scenario not specifically covered in the matrix is when the employee is approved to work from home or an alternate worksite (either for the inclement weather day or that is their primary
 duty station).  All time the employee works from home is coded as regular work time (“RG”).  Once the office closes, it is coded as miscellaneous paid leave (“MPL”).  An employee needs to receive supervisory approval to continue to work after the office closes. 
 Time approved to work after the office is closed is coded as regular paid time.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
