Resolving Problems Through Good Communication Sample Clauses

Resolving Problems Through Good Communication. We believe that each individual person’s situation is different, and should be treated individually. Good communication between supervisor and member should solve most problems. When a member uses sick time in such a way that the supervisor considers either the quantity or pattern of time off to be a problem, the supervisor will talk with the member about it. Supervisors and employees are encouraged to talk informally before a situation develops into a full-blown problem. Resources such as leaves of absence and the Employee Assistance Program should be discussed during this time. If the question cannot be resolved after reasonable attempts, a combined problem solving approach coupled with progressive discipline may be applied. SHARE union representatives and Human Resources Generalists are available to help in such situations. This approach requires extensive communication between supervisors and employees. If a manager feels the need to refer to a standard for absenteeism, s/he may refer to the guidelines in section C below. However, these guidelines are to be used as a reference, and should not be substituted for an individualized situational approach. In addition to the usual disciplinary steps and problem solving process, a supervisor may address a particular sick use problem as follows:  If sick calls exceed a reasonable standard for the situation, UMass Memorial reserves the right to require a physician’s note for a particular incident, or at reasonable intervals for an extended illness. The employee will normally be notified in advance that a note may be required for future absences.  If an employee calls in sick for their last scheduled shift before, or first scheduled shift after, a holiday, a supervisor may choose to withhold the holiday benefit as a disciplinary measure.  An employee who establishes a recurring pattern of unscheduled leave for more than 2 occurrences on his/her weekend within a rolling year, may be required to make up an additional weekend shift based on departmental needs within 6 months of the occurrence, except where prohibited by law. This shift will be scheduled within budgeted hours with mutual agreement between the staff person and the manager.
