Centerspace encourages team members to fulfill their civic responsibility by participating in elections.  Generally, team members are able to find time to vote either before or after their regular work schedule.  If team members are unable to vote in an election during their non-working hours, Centerspace will grant up to 4 hours of paid time off to vote. 

 

Team members should request time off to vote from their manager at least one working day prior to Election Day.  Advance notice is required so that the time off can be scheduled for a time that least disrupts company operations.


Additionally, all team members shall be eligible and may volunteer up to 1 day of normal paid work time to participate in non-partisan, non-paid service facilitating voting (voter registration, election judging, providing service at polling venues, etc.) within the 30-days prior to any national, state, or local election in the community in which the team member lives.
