What happens if, due to certain work circumstances, you don't get to use your personal day? I know vacations have to be paid out but i was told that PH days disappear.... is that true, or do they have to pay it out?
Because ever since i was sent to my new store, pretty much every week there's been someone on vacation, or a holiday week, or someone else taking a PH day making it impossible for me to get mine in. This week, i was on vacation so the co who did the schedule for me left my PH day request pending, gave me the day off, but scheduled me 40 hours. Now that this week is already scheduled, there's only one week left before the end of the year (since we do 2 week schedules) and that week is the week of Christmas-through the 31st, so that means that i'm already only going to be able to be scheduled 32 hours, i'm not sure if there's going to be a way for me to fit my PH in there or not, because on top of that we have someone going on sick leave.
Sooooooo yeah, will they pay out my PH if i don't take it or am i just going to lose it?
I remember last year our payroll clerk went ahead and paid out everyone's remaining personal days after the cutoff date (December 1st for us). Whether you actually took the day off was up to you and your supervisor. I would ask though.
Yeah, i'm going to ask on sunday when i go back to work. Just hoping someone knows how this stuff works.
The union contract (75) is vague too, it says that Personal days are scheduled "by seniority and in accordance to the vacation schedule rules" so that might mean they roll over but idk.
at my store we have till the end of jan of the next year to use our vacation/PH days. so if i had one left today i could take it jan 20th or something and be fine. they do by fiscal year
