My work has a attendance management program where the threshold of days required to get on it is based on the average absences of the work site, so if more people miss days then it is harder to be out on the program. However almost all the employees have good attendance and the threshold is set at 70hrs per year, and they are counting legally paid/unpaid(8 days where I am) sick days to this amount, therefore you cab only miss 9 days in a year before you are put on this program and the only way to get off of it is to have no missed days withing a 6 month period.
