On your first day, you may be scheduled to arrive 30-60 minutes after the regular shift start time.  This allows the team to get the shift up and running, so they can give you their full attention upon arrival.  Check your email for a message that explains where and when to start on your first day.  Please make note of your regular shift start and end times after your first day.  If you are unable to get into the building at your scheduled time, you can call 262-284-6600 and follow the prompts to speak to a shift supervisor on duty.

Attendance infractions are tracked on a point system. You are to maintain a good attendance record, but we understand that unforeseen circumstances occasionally occur. Exceeding the maximum points is a violation of the Attendance Policy and may result in disciplinary action, up to and including termination. You are allowed a maximum of 10 points in 12 months. Poor attendance prior to 10 points may result in termination or other consequences, especially during your first year of employment.

Attendance Point Values

• Unexcused absence = 1 point

• Work less than half of your shift = 1 point

• Work more than half of your shift = ½ point

  • • Punching-in late or punching-out early by even a minute will give you a ½ point.
