Re: Staff Wellness – New Process for Informing Menno Place of your absence
________________________________________________________________________
Staff Wellness and the Menno Place Attendance Management Support Program
As a dedicated employee of Menno Place, regardless in which building you work, your primary goal is to offer exceptional care to our residents. Offering care to residents or tenants should not compromise your self-care.
The leadership team at Menno Place is happy to provide information to promote your self-care. You will notice two documents have been placed on the staff website (www.MennoPlaceStaff.com/PeopleandCulture) one is titled “Promoting Healthy Attendance ”. This short booklet is packed with tips to help you eat healthy and sleep well as some of you manage shift work, family obligations, and taking care of yourself. We hope you find the information helpful and useful as you work toward achieving your wellness goals.
The second document is titled, “Question and Answer Sheet for Menno Place Employees on wellness and attendance ”. Please take a few minutes to review this document as it summarizes important information regarding wellness, attendance, break periods, and overtime.
One of the most noteworthy points in these documents includes a new process for informing Menno Place of your absence.
Any time you call in sick, effective immediately, you will call the staffing office and your manager to report your absence.
Your manager will speak with you to ensure any support that can be provided by Menno Place will be shared with you. In addition, the manager can make decisions that impact the operations of Menno Place in a timely manner. Please do not send an email or a text to your manager, please make the phone call.
Your health is important to us, and we have seen sick time increase as well as WCB claims. It is important that we all work together and help each other live our best possible. Stay tuned for more information on leading your best life throughout the year.
Loradonna Botter,
Executive Director, People & Culture
