We are looking into updating our handbook. We only require 1 week but it must be Sunday-Sunday. Is this necessary? Can it be Tuesday-Tuesday?

Examiners have never had a problem with our 5 consecutive day policy. You can start on any day, but holidays don't count. You can take a Friday off, take your Monday holiday, and then take Tuesday through Friday off and it counts as your 5 days.

Honestly, unless you do something to restrict a person's computer/network access while they are gone, this control has become pretty much worthless anyway. The control was designed so that the daily manipulation an employee would have to engage in to cover up an embezzlement would come to light while they were gone. Now, with remote work and such, they can continue to cover it up even while spending two weeks in the south Pacific.

That may be why our auditors recommended that when someone is out on vacation for their "extended" time - in our case we require one week - their access must be temporarily turned off so they can not access remotely.

Exactly so, TaraSue.

First banking job - the comptroller went on vacation (paper then, no computers).
When cleaning off his desk, his admin found a notice from the state that doc(umentary} stamp tax would be increasing from $.10 cents per hundred to $.15 cents per hundred, effective 2nd quarter. Unfortunately he went on vacation in November, The bank had to pull every note (commercial, consumer and mortgage) and apply the additional doc stamps from April 1st. At that time they were like postage stamps - had to lick them! New to the bank, I had been one of the people volunteered for the project.
