Make-up Sessions/Absences Clause Samples
The Make-up Sessions/Absences clause outlines the procedures and conditions under which missed sessions, classes, or appointments can be rescheduled or compensated for. Typically, this clause specifies how much advance notice is required to qualify for a make-up session, any limits on the number of make-ups allowed, and whether absences due to illness or emergencies are treated differently from other absences. Its core practical function is to set clear expectations for both parties regarding attendance and to minimize disputes by providing a fair process for handling unavoidable absences.
Make-up Sessions/Absences. A. If make-up sessions are utilized by the Contractor, the make-up sessions shall be conducted during the same calendar month as the missed sessions occurred. The Department will not pay the Contractor for more than one (1) weekly group session per Participant (excluding make-up sessions).
B. The Department will pay the subsidized Payment for a MAXIMUM of four (4) group session absences per Participant per Fiscal Year. After four (4) absences, the Department will not pay the Contractor for any other sessions the Participant misses during the Fiscal Year. The Contractor may collect from the Participant the Contract rate for absences in excess of four (4).
C. Participants who are ten (10) or more minutes late or leave ten (10) or more minutes early to scheduled group shall be considered absent. The Department will pay for this absence in accordance with Sections G.
