Your company leave policy clearly states that if an employee is out for more than three days, he or she MUST contact the HR department to report the absence. An employee named Jesse was in a motorcycle accident. He called the security desk from the hospital the next day and told the operator he'd be out. On each of the next four days he placed another call to the security desk to report his absence. On the sixth day he returned to work and his boss -- who had no idea why he hadn't shown up for work because the security desk never told him -- fired Jesse because he'd violated company policy by not contacting HR.
If you were the HR director at this company, how would you handle this situation? |
