[QUOTE="steeltoe, post: 293470, member: 9491"] I am not sure were you are from or what supplement you are under, but here in the Southern, we do not handle it this way. First, our language has option 3. Option 3 is paid the first 7 days that the employee misses work. It does not matter how they code it, sick, personal, etc. The first 7 days are paid no matter what the excuse. I will say that management sometimes does not follow the contract on this language. The employee can use it to there advantage if they like, but the bottom line is our language requires it to be paid the first 7 days missed in the calendar year. As far as illegal for paying a sick day when you are not sick. No where in our supplement is there such language. Again, you are paid for the first 7 days missed. In addition. Oprtion 3 is an earned benefit that is part of our vacation package. How could an employee possibly be disciplined for using an earned benefit? You are paid for the day. This has never gone to panell, as far as I know, becuase the company knows they would loose if it ever went to arbitration. Our local instructs us to call in and tell the supervisor that we are using an option 3 day. That is it. We do not go into details, we just let them kow that we will not be at work and to pay us option 3. [/QUOTE]
