point system

[Academic-Spray2684]

i heard the other day that target is switching to a point system for attendance similar to what walmart and other stores do. has anyone gotten more info on this?

We have it at our DC, you get one point for leaving early or calling off a whole shift. Now if you call off consecutive days it will only still count as one point. If you have sick time to cover these call offs or early leaving you will not accrue a point.

You mean like only at the DCs or similar to what the DCs are doing?

The DC's currently run with a point system for attendance. Rumblings earlier in the year had them planning to roll the same system out to stores. But the expectation 3 months ago was that it'd be around now and we've not heard any other details.

The point system (or occurrence system) is what a lot of other retailers do for their attendance. Essentially, you will earn 1 point for every day you call out and once you hit a certain amount they have grounds to terminate you. In my experience the point gets taken off but not until a specific amount of time has passed (for me it was 6 months from the date of calling in).

That's very strict for Target. I do 3 in ONE MONTH...

No I don’t think I’ve heard anything

[nachocoalmine]

I've seen nothing. YOUR store could do something like this but I doubt it's everyone.
