Management is frequently using 23M7 outside of 8 hours, not logging 23M7 incidents as required, along with numerous other routine PWA violations.
There is a lot of gray area here, and lots of back and forth over beers. I might say that there is "nothing contractually wrong" from calling in sick all 270 sick leave hours (for old guys like me) and not calling in sick until one hour prior to report, for ALL 270 hours of sick use. But I would raise a BS flag if someone was bragging about it--legal and all.
