I am the store manager of a retail shop in New York state. I am in charge of the day to day, including making the schedules. Corporate is making me do the schedules weeks in advance, I just finished the schedule for week ending October 9.
The issue is HR is going into the scheduling program after me and is changing all the schedules without letting me know. But they are changing the schedule for the current work week, as it's happening. Is this allowed? I can't find anything about it for non NYC, but it still seems wrong. They are taking hours away from already part time associates and there seems to be nothing I can do.
If anyone has suggestions, or knows that this isn't allowed, I would appreciate it. I try so hard to keep people with as many hours as possible and fit it into what their availability is, it just seems like it's for nothing if others can change it at will.
Sorry for any formatting mistakes or grammar issues, I am on mobile, hiding in the office, trying to make sense of the schedule.
