My shifts are scheduled 8.5hrs a day, 8 hrs of paid work, 30mins of unpaid lunch. My employer is using my sick time to cover my unpaid lunch on a shift that I needed to leave early due to illness. I worked 3hrs of my shift and expected to use 5hrs of my sick time to cover the rest of the day. Employer is using 5.5 hrs of sick time to cover the day. Is this a normal policy?? It feels like I am having to “pay” for my unpaid lunch. I get such a limited amount of sick time, every bit of it matters to me.
