I’m in the central with no sick days and it’s the same here.

They charged me with both. Got a discipline and lost a vacation day
They always steal single vacation days if you call in sick here. Happened to me Monday and Tuesday actually. So when I need to use those vacation days for what I was planning to use them for, I'm just going to call in again and they won't have anything to take. Plus, it can't be denied.
That's what we call a DOUBLE DISCIPLINE.
Reserved for the most heinous offenders.

Sometimes zero, but depends on how sick I am/get.
I can say this, in fifteen years, maybe have done this fifteen times. I’m not looking to screw the operation but if you can’t make it in then so be it.

You get 6 call ins in a 6 month period.

Unfortunately, yes.
Although I had to call in for a funeral and didn't lose one.
It is wrong. They are called single vacation days, not sick or vacation days.
That vacation time is supposed to be ours to use at our discretion within the guidelines,just as if we had chosen it as a week.

They are right. That is what they are supposed to do. The problem is that it is not consistently enforced in many centers. If they really wanted to they could start enforcing it across the board. Each supplement is a little different but ours, for example, gives us 8 option/sick days. If our center wanted to they could deduct the first eight days we do not work. But it’s very rare anything is done automatically. We normally have to tell them to code us as an option day. Some of our drivers will miss lots of days throughout the year but not use their option/sick days until later. They save them for when they really do not want to work. Such as bad weather or other things that come up.

False. Cut that in half, 3 call ins per 90 days. That is what the central has.

Where is that at in the contract.
Here it is 6 in a 6 month period.

None of it is in the contract.
It was a company policy, that has never been consistently enforced.
Maybe 30 years ago, it was 4%. Meaning 1 absence or late, every 30 working days.
Not anymore....

nowhere special
They had me in the office once because I was sick 3 days in 6 months. Put me over their magical percentage. Didn't matter that I had hardly missed any days for years previously. Or their "special" people missed many more days. I was one of the people they always counted on being their every day and screwed up their plans.
No warning letter or other action. Just a bit of harassment.

I should have remembered that it was a local understanding the 6 in 6 months.

Where is the 3 in 90 verbage in the central we have a huge issue with that in our center?

How's that? Several posters use their real name. For example: Turdferguson. That has to be a real name.

Fits in that case
My building was bad with this. We have a growing workforce but our Saturday’s have stayed the same, so we have signups NOT to work. It all used to just be scheduled off, but then people were still using option days and option week days later on. New boss comes in and now our first 9 scheduled off days, they see if we have any paid time to be used first. After those 9 days are exhausted, it becomes a scheduled off/layoff day. Some use all of those by March.
It’s a lot like them using vacation first when we go on FMLA.
Luckily my area has sick days. I still see call ins though. So they aren’t quite enforcing it fully.
