1st Occurrence

Hey guys I know this is about anti-work and I would love to be rich too and not have to work all the time. But today I got my first occurrence. I honestly forgot I had to come in today and had something scheduled. for background, I consider myself a valuable employee, they know I can do almost anything. I’ve never once called out. I’ve picked up shifts and they’ve given me the option to come in earlier when I want. I got this occurrence and I guess they’re figuring it out but of course it scares me. I know they see me probably as a worker doesn’t mean much but idk what an occurrence is.

I got intermittent FMLA approved through H.R. at my company, and 4 days later my department changed my shift.

I have a medical issue. I am afraid that at times it may cause me to miss work, because of this my doctor filled out FMLA paperwork, and it was approved on Tuesday. I have only missed one day this year, I just took the FMLA as a precaution, because my medical issue can come on without notice. In addition to the above mentioned medical issue I also have a sleep disorder. My department knows about this. I work the overnight shift because of this. I have happily been on this shift for a year and a half. 4 days after I turned in my FMLA paperwork my department director and manager decided that we will now be changing shifts at the end of the month and rotating shifts every six months. My manager then put a coworker on my shift with me until the change goes into effect at…

is this legal? (ohio?)

In Ohio, is it legal to require hourly staff to give 30 days notice before they quit, and change their hourly rate to minimum wage for the last pay period if they don't? Is it legal to force said employees to pay for trainings the employer required them to take? Is it legal to terminate an employee's insurance coverage effective immediately and still charge them premiums on their last paycheck? Is any of this reportable & if so, to whom? Thanks!
