Electrical Association Committee Attendance Policy

Regular attendance at the Electrical Association meetings is essential for the success of the group.  In addition, regular attendance enables Committee members to be productive and helps ensure that issues and discussions are examined from a variety of perspectives.

the Electrical Association Committee members may forfeit their position as a result of poor attendance.  Committee members are expected to attend all scheduled Committee meetings per year.  We understand conflicts arise and will allow one excused absence.

If for any reason I find myself unable to carry out the above duties as best as I can, or am unable to attend two of the scheduled Committee meetings, I agree to discuss with the Committee Chair and the Electrical Association Staff Representative my future obligations in serving on the Committee.

Committee terms are valid for 1 year, you will be asked to re-commit to the committee on a yearly basis
