Final Employee Handbook

Auto-Wares Group of Companies Attendance Policy Maintaining a good attendance record is essential to our culture of reliability and accountability at Auto-Wares. Attendance is considered to be a part of your overall performance, and frequent or unexplained absences, late arrivals and early departures, regardless of the reason, may result in discipline or discharge. Whenever you must be absent from work because of sickness or other emergency, it is your responsibility to call your supervisor as soon as possible, but no later than one-half hour before the beginning of your shift. If your supervisor is not available, leave a voice message with a telephone number you can be reached at. Any employee who does not call in to report an absence on three scheduled workdays in a rolling 6-month period will be deemed to have voluntarily quit. Incarcerated employees will be considered as voluntary quit. If you are absent (whether excused or unexcused), always keep your supervisor informed of when you plan to return to work. After a period of 3 days, you may be asked to bring with you as a condition of your return to work a note from your doctor certifying the medical reason for your absence and releasing you to return to work. An employee will be subject to possible disciplinary action up to and including dismissal if he/she has a pattern or practice of excessive excused absences that are not permitted under FMLA. At Auto-Wares, we are driven by our commitment to reliability and teamwork, always striving to create a positive and supportive environment for everyone. To maintain a strong and cohesive team, it is important that absenteeism and late arrivals are managed appropriately. All employees are expected to follow the attendance policy outlined below. The responsibility to provide satisfactory proof of absence lies with the employee, not Auto-Wares Group. If satisfactory proof is not provided, the following sequence of penalties will be enforced.
