Early Leave Allowed Today for Some DOH Employees

Health Commissioner Julia Sheen today said that events occurring at Health Department locations in both the St. Thomas and St. Croix districts have forced the Department to release some employees early due to problems in the building.

At the Knud Hansen Complex on St. Thomas, employees will be allowed to leave at 2 p.m. today because of a water outage caused by repairs being made by Water and Power Authority personnel in the area.

At the Charles Harwood on Complex on St. Croix, employees will be allowed leave at 3 p.m. today through June 11 because of a malodorous episode exacerbated by last weekend’s power outage on that island.

“We apologize for any inconvenience to the public and hope to resume normal hours as soon as possible,” Sheen said.

Individuals with clinic appointments will be contacted to reschedule.
