Hello!
Recently my manager has been posting how much vacation time we have left and encouraged us to take the time off so we don't lose any over the amount of time that will carry over to next year.
According to that report, I had 6 days over what would be carried over, so I put in for next week off.
Today, I just randomly decided to ask my manager to confirm the numbers he was using was accurate… and he didn't.
See, we have rwo systems, the vacation system where we request time off, and the timecard system where we actually put in the codes when we take those days off. Both record vacation, sick, holidays.
Apparently they don't talk to each other. And it's “Each individuals responsibility to make sure they're reconciled”
I was told that part of this is not simply telling the manager that I'm going to take a sick day, but I have to SPECIFICALLY REQUEST he make sure it gets updated in the vacation system.
But, shouldn't it be HR that makes sure those two systems agree? not the employees?
