 Missed Punch definition

 Missed Punch. A missed punch is a failure to use the time clock properly.  Exempted Absences Not Counted Against Attendance Record: o PTO Jury Duty o Military Leave Unpaid leave o Court Issued Subpoena Center Closings o Paid Leaves Related to Work FMLA Leave  An occurrence is used to track an unscheduled and unapproved tardy, missed punch or absence. Consecutive days of absence due to illness are considered one occurrence. Bargaining unit employees who are ill and are absent from work for 3 or more days must provide a doctor’s statement noting the date the employee may return to work. Failure to report to work for 2 consecutive days without notification is considered a voluntary quit.  Each Full day absence = 1 occurrence  Each partial day absence = ½ occurrence  Consecutive absences due to illness = 1 occurrence  Each tardy = ½ occurrence  Each missed punch = ½ occurrence  Each no‐call/no show for work (when an employee fails to report to work and has not followed the appropriate call‐in procedure), unless an emergency situation arose which resulted in the employee being hospitalized, which made it impossible to call‐in/report to work = 2 occurrences  Each bargaining unit employee’s occurrence accrual will be reduced by one (1) occurrence for every ninety (90) calendar days of zero occurrences. (Summer layoff months are not included in “credit period” for bargaining unit members working the school year). For example, if a school year bargaining unit member accrued a total of 2 occurrences on January 15th resulting in a verbal warning, but did not accrue any additional occurrences for the next 90 calendar days, their total accrued occurrences would be reduced by 1 occurrence effective on April 16th (the day after 90 days of no occurrences). *No bargaining unit employee’s occurrence total will be less than zero.
