In May, we received an email from an employee no longer here, that we will be paid for holidays and to add them to our timesheets. We did and all timesheets were approved by manager and payroll.
It is now nearly March of the following year that we were not supposed to get paid those holidays and we have to pay it back. I THINK THE FUCK NOT. They’re now saying that the original approval was too grey and interpreted incorrectly. Now, you’re going to start deducting a day’s pay every paycheck until you get your money back for not writing a policy correctly? I’m a college student, this is my rent and tuition you’re messing with.
Hate that the law protects the employer in this when it’s literally their fault.
