Unscheduled Absence. All instances when a staff member is scheduled to come to work and does not, except as noted above in the list of exemptions. Each day or partial day of unscheduled absence is considered individually, except that consecutive days of absence from one or more consecutively scheduled work shifts will be considered collectively as one unscheduled absence when supported by a physician’s note. For example, a three (3) day illness is counted as three (3) unscheduled absences unless supported by a physician’s note. If a physician’s note is provided, the unscheduled absences would count as one (1) unscheduled absence. A twelve-month attendance review period commences when the grace period for unscheduled absences has been exceeded.
