Accumulation of tardy and early quit points shall be subject to the following disciplinary action: Counseling/verbal warning Up to 10 points Written warning 16 points One-day suspension 20 points Termination 30 points Points will be maintained on a revolving ninety (90) day cycle. Accumulated tardy and early quit points older than ninety (90) days will be crossed off an Employee’s attendance point record.
Attendance Discipline. The parties agree and understand that regular attendance is a minimum and essential job requirement. For attendance issues, Valley Transit subscribes to the principles of progressive discipline, with the primary focus of any discipline being on the facts and severity of the underlying attendance problem(s). In other words, Valley Transit will generally initiate discipline with a verbal warning to correct attendance issues. If progressive discipline related to attendance issues advances to a written warning or higher, the employee will be given notice and offered a pre-disciplinary hearing; it is the employee’s responsibility to notify the Union. If an employee’s attendance does not improve, Valley Transit will impose gradually more severe disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal from employment, unless otherwise prohibited by state or federal law. When there is a serious violation of the attendance policy, Valley Transit’s discipline may fall outside of progressive discipline principles, and severe discipline may be issued.
Attendance Discipline. An employee that incurs either an unpaid sick occurrence(s) or a late arrival (after the use of their free late arrivals) shall be given an attendance point. Unpaid sick occurrences for discipline purposes shall be measured based on single day use. If unpaid sick occurrences occur over the course of multiple consecutive days and shifts, then multiple points shall be given to the employee. If an employee has unpaid sick occurrences over the course of more than one consecutive day and that employee can provide a physicians note excusing them from work for the period of missed time, then that employee shall be given a single attendance point. If an employee calls off sick during their shift, and has no accrued sick leave, the sick occurrence shall be covered by a free late arrival, if the employee has not exhausted their free late arrivals. The progressive discipline for attendance points shall be the following: First point will result in a written warning being issued to the employee. Second point will result in a final written warning being issued to the employee. Third point will result in the employee being subject to termination. All attendance points under prior attendance policies shall be reduced to zero for all employees as of April 28, 2024.
Attendance Discipline. Attendance violations shall be on a separate disciplinary track from General Discipline.
