Hi all, please excuse any formatting issues as I’m on mobile. I have a question that I feel only this community can answer.
For context, I’m starting at a company I worked for previously. My original hire was done with a referral company, which provided its own benefits package and had some guidelines as to how many days you could miss and how long until you would be hired or let go. The company ended their partnership with this referral agency before I left.
Now I’m back, and all the hiring is done within the company. It wasn’t until a girl was fired for missing 3 days within a 3 month period did I find out that they are still practicing this 90-day temp period. This was not disclosed to me at any time. Not in my interview, offer letter, follow up information, or orientation. I was never given these guidelines of how much time I can miss or how much PTO I get.
If it had simply been disclosed, I wouldn’t care at all.
Is this wrong? I feel like it’s shady. This is in the food production industry, by the way.
