1 day suspension

NutritionWhore · Guru

They can suspend you and schedule you however they feel like.

You can be suspended for an entire day, and be scheduled for four hours for three days next. You're not promised or guaranteed hours you believe you want and are entitled to, only the minimums required by law and contract.

I never said I was entitled to anything. But I usually get like 30 hours. My department is too small to have me only getting 12 hours.

That's why I was asking how it was going to work. I didn't know if it HAD to be an 8 hour suspension or could be less.

Umm, if you are actually being suspended, what makes you believe that your department is too small to give you shorter hours? Just sayin'...

I was recently suspended and they gave me the choice of either going home and missing the rest of that day or missing my next scheduled shift. I don't see why it would be any different for you...

Changing the subject a little bit but just wondering, how long do write ups and suspensions and stuff stay on your record?

I mean, if you say had the opportunity to become a dept. head or something in the future, a write up/suspension from 2 years ago wouldn't be involved would it?

Generally speaking, those things stay in your file forever. However, most cannot be officially held against you for discipline reasons longer than 90 days. But if any mgr decided to check up on your record, they could view discipline several years old or more.

Then that'd your division's standard for how long into the future a writeup can affect later ones, but they stay on record in your file forever.

Write ups: go "away" (lie dormant) in your file for the specified time after being written up. Usually 6 months

suspensions: follow you around your ENTIRE career at that company. They do NOT go away. EVER. : (
