Good news is my union is grieving every single instance of this with the willingness to take every single one to arbitration if need be (because they'll win easily).

I keep coming to work, checking email, and discovering HR keeps soliciting donations of PTO.
There's a reason this place is always hiring.Facebook: bcowles920 Instagram: missthundercat01

What is the discipline they've imposed? Is it actually some form of discipline like a write up or a suspension or something, or is it a requirement that you use paid time off or vacation time or something for your absence, or is it something different?That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

I’ve already written about my pay ordeal.
I'm genuinely interested in this because we've had to deal with similar issues in terms of people with Covid, people who've been in close contact to people with Covid outside of work, etc..., and it has been a challenge trying to sort through all of the variations while still trying to treat everyone equitably, so I'm always interested in hearing how other employers are handling it, and disputes that are coming up.
It seems sort of incongruous to me that an employer would write up an employee for testing positive for Covid and then staying home.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

Not sure how jj's union operates or what agreements they have around comp with his employer, but it wouldn't surprise me if it's a tactic his company is using to try and deny people promotions or annual raises. "You got written up for an unexcused absence, so no (or reduced) raise for you this year per the terms of your CBA."

I mean I guess I could see it if it was discipline for some technicality or something like you didn't call in to the right person or sufficiently far in advance of your shift or something as required by the contract, but just writing someone up for missing work due to illness seems sort of BS.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

It’s really just an attempt at “being fair”, because they’re punishing everyone no matter the circumstances. Most likely some idiot MBA manager at the regional level decided this was the best idea.
It could also be a response to the newly elected hardline union leadership.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Well that's what I was wondering. The whole thing seems confusing. I have to assume people get sick all the time at that work place, whether it's from Covid or the flu or some other condition. Does everyone get a written warning for getting sick, because that seems pretty harsh.

What’s hilarious is they don’t want people “gaming the system” so all it leads to is people gaming FMLA.U-A-A!!!Go!Go!GreenandGold!

Of all the systems I've been exposed to as an employee or an employer, I still like our current one the best. Maybe 20 years ago we went away from vacation time, sick leave and all the rest. Everything is just PTO. I don't care why you are gone, whether you're sick, in Mexico on vacation, or home banging the babysitter. Use your PTO until you're out, and at that point you need to show up for work.That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.
