The Committee Chairperson is responsible for creating a Service Book at the beginning of each year that includes each member’s name.
Any members who are not required to provide service due to other assigned Clay Studio responsibilities are included in the Service Book but recorded as exempt.
New members are added to the Service Book throughout the year.
The verification of service time is performed by reviewing the members who have both swiped their badge and properly recorded their service in the Service Book.
The information is derived from information that is printed from the Point of Sale (POS) system or sign-in scanner that provides a list of all who entered the studio.
The Committee is responsible for notifying each member who fails to perform their required service by following the steps contained in the Policy Manual under Member Obligations (see section II, E.)
Sanctions are established for nonperformance, up to and including suspension.
The Committee regularly communicates with the Monitoring Committee and the Facilities Committee to coordinate waivers for service as may be appropriate.
