Rather than tracking the exact number of minutes missed, we code the Directors into attendance categories at different increments of time missed. Below are the coded times and how they are used to calculate cumulative hours missed.
The cumulative number of hours missed is a conservative estimate and should be understood to mean that the Director missed at least as much time as displayed.
