Best Answer

Requiring salaried employees, or even union employees, to use vacation time if they want to be paid during a plant shut down is a common practice, and therefore presumably acceptable. The specifics, of course, will depend on the specific jurisdiction in which the company is located and the employee works.

Can an employer take away sick and personal days from employees?

I think your question is regarding a day that the company is not open. No, they cannot force you to take a sick day, a vacation day or a personal day...but they also don't have to pay you for the day (unless you are a salaried employee.) They can just schedule you to be off without pay on that day. So, they are probably suggesting that you take a sick day if you'd like to be paid for the time.
