1) that was a completely different case than someone calling in sick almost every time the get an assignment for over a year.

2) my understanding was it was a technicality that for 3 of the 4 it was first time being caught, that’s why 3 got their job back.

3) the company successfully terminated 1 of them

4) they likley did not make the same mistake again and had significant documentation for this termination.


it’s also worth noting that the company has had a few very favorable awards from arbitration since that happened. I certainly wouldn’t bet my career on an arbitrator looking at a pile of evidence that I routinely missed work and deciding that wasn’t good enough to fire me.
