Is your office work strict in terms of Late and Absences?

Sometimes I wish they would be a little more strict like they were with me last yr when I was late all the time ... Thing is I had a doctors note and they still got after me where the people I am referring too are always late with no real reason. I feel if you have a good reason like doctors note then that should be acceptable but not then just allow everyone else to be late as well.

At my job you get 2 chances on the third they terminate your employment. It is very important to be on time to your job. Other people count on you to be on time. If your going to be late it is always best to call and let them know, but being late all the time will get you fired where I work. They have no tolarance for it.

My company is really strict when it comes to the absences and tardiness. One of my colleagues got late for 2-3 weeks in a row and she got a letter warning her about her tardiness. There was also one colleague of mine got fired because of her tardiness and absences. At first she got suspended, but when she got back, she still had this tardiness issue and so the management had to let her go. We don't get our attendance allowance if we have 3 lates or absences. But if we don't have any, we'll be able to get additional attendance allowance bonus.

hi, actually me and all my co-worker are very thankful because we have a supervisor who is not very strict in terms of late but when it comes to absences our boss is not,he said to us that he would rather like to us to be late rather than to be absent for the whole day.

I used to be in HR and we were quite strict with attendance and tardiness. For every 3x late in a month, the employees were given penalty from written warning for the first offense, 1 day suspension for the next and so forth. An employee who persists on being late for 6 months will have to face dismissal from the job. Re absences, employees should provide advance notice otherwise, they will be asked to make a written explanation regarding their unauthorized absence. If it is a sick leave or an emergency, a simple phone call or text will do as a notice of not being able to report for work. Why do companies do this? It is to impose discipline. It can be very inconvenient especially for production and manufacturing companies when employees do not come on time. Time is very valuable and employees should be able to realize this. On the other hand, companies need to provide incentives for perfect attendance as an encouragement for employees the same time that is is a method to show appreciation for those who give due importance to their job.

I can deal with that kind of restrictions but that all about the boss
