Re: Holidays Announcement Regarding Sick Calls
_ _
Dear Team,
In the past, we have noticed a pattern of increased sick calls over long weekends/ stat holidays, followed by staff working on the statutory holiday the next day. All staff scheduled to work on Christmas Day and Boxing Day are expected to report to their shifts as usual.
Due to this recurring pattern, we will be requiring proof of illness/doctor’s note as per the Collective Agreement from anyone who calls in sick on December 25 and/or 26, 2024. Additionally, if you call in sick on December 24, 2024 and then come to work on the statutory holiday, December 25, 2024, an investigation will be initiated by your Manager with a Shop Steward and a doctor’s note is mandatory. Failure to comply will result in disciplinary action and a risk of no sick time pay.
We appreciate your understanding and dedication to our residents’ care. Adhering to these guidelines will help ensure smooth operations throughout the holidays.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your department manager.
Sincerely,
Jessy Manhas
Manager of People & Culture
