Hello there
We have a fantastic new nanny who started last month. Due to a large snowfall in our area she can't get here today - it's a half an hour drive away.
We didn't put a clause in our contract about enforced absence due to weather, and I'm not sure what to suggest.
She mentioned that in the nursery where she worked, they had 'snow days'.
If I had a job where I too could take snow days this would be ok, but a) I work from home most of the time and b) if I miss a days work for any reason, I have to make it up on another day.
Do any employers or nannies have any solutions? Would it be unreasonable to put in the contract that if weather prevents work she would make up the hours on another day? And if so, would that be all the hours, or a proportion of them?
many thanks
