Progressive discipline for not calling in four hours ahead of shift. Not calling four hours ahead of time is part of comprehensive time and attendance policy that includes
a) clocking in
b) tardiness
c) call in policy.
Any voilations of any of above all count against the time and attendance policy. (Not calling in four hours prior to a scheduled shift is an "automatic " write up company wide.)
For example an employee may have a written verbal for failing to clock in a number of times.
If that same employee who already got a written verbal for failing to clock in a number of times also voilates the company tardiness policy, he/she will now have a written written warning and so forth.
Schedule of progressive discipline
1st offense a written verbal
2nd a written written
3rd 1 day suspension
4th 3 suspension
5th 5 day suspension
6th termination.
At dominatique : Company has an "automatic" write up for missing call in deadline as there standard call in policy.
I live alone and cannot have anyone call in for me.
