scheduled to work four days during a week due to holiday, then each day is worth 1/4 of a week.

Shannon and Elizabeth are co-workers. They are both pregnant and due around thanksgiving.
Shannon works 5 days each week, for a scheduled eight-hour day. Elizabeth works Monday,
Wednesday, and Friday only and on those days is scheduled for eight hour days. Therefore,
Shannon is entitled to 12 workweeks based on a 40-hour schedule, and Elizabeth is entitled to 12
workweeks based on 24- hour schedule.
All absences are calculated as fraction of the employee's individual schedule. For a traditionally
week, with no holidays, if Shannon takes one-eight-hour day, she has taken 1/5 of workweek
( also calculated as 20% of a week). If Elizabeth also takes one 8-hour day, she has used 1/3 of a
workweek (also calculated as 33% of a week) as she is only scheduled 3 days.
Elizabeth takes off Wednesday through Friday the week of Columbus Day, when the office is
closed on Monday. What fraction of the week has Elizabeth taken? - ANSWER
One week- Elizabeth does not work on Tuesdays or Thursdays, so her absence was only Wed &
Fri for a week where she was just scheduled to work on Wed & Fri. Therefore, of her two
scheduled days, she took both of them which equals a full workweek.

Shannon also takes off Wednesday through Friday the week of Columbus Day, when the office
is closed on Monday. What fraction of the week has she taken? - ANSWER
3/4 (75%) Shannon was scheduled to work only 4 days that week as the office was close don
Monday (counted as a non-scheduled work day). Because she took Wed, Thurs and Friday off,
her absence accounted for three of the four days she was scheduled. (75% of the work week)
