Points-Based Attendance Policies

Points-based attendance policies… we get it. Sometimes, you want to immediately “punish” employees that are late or call out with no notice.

Paul Edwards sits down with Senior Solution Center Advisor Michelle Richard to discuss why these types of attendance systems are not a good idea, and how easy it can be to land yourself in hot water if you use one.
