I am in support of changing the mandate from 5 calendar days to 5 business days. This would allow for workers to have sufficient time to respond to complaints. With the increase in cases, it is becoming challenging to consistently meet this mandate - especially when a case is assigned near a holiday. Often, this results in workers having to treat these 5 day cases as 24 hr cases and have to respond immediately due to holidays.
