My employer did.My sick time was used up for the first three months I was off work.You may be able to recover this time if you have an attorny. If your employer did this, he probably did it with your best interests at heart since Comp doesn't pay 100% of your salary and your sick time probably is 100% of your salary (unless you're paid tips & commission.)
yes, if the employee indicated having missed work to visit a parent in the hospital.
So long as your employer didn't promise a raise in a contract, then your employer is under no obligation to provide you a raise - no matter how stellar of an employee you are.
Yes
My guess is that it all goes to the contract you have with your employer. If you requested a vacation day and it was approved, they should pay you with vacation time. If you just missed a day without approval, they can choose not to pay you. But this is all speculative. Read your contract/employee handbook.
Allow up to 4 weeks.
Former employers can only inform present or future employees of the salary that was being paid, title, job description, and duration of employment. Any other information that you share may be grounds for a law suit. I would say, just be glad that employee is someone elses problem now. The previous answer is just groundless. An employer can say anything factual about a former employee, with no liability for defamation: "We fired Pat after an investigation", "Pat failed the apprentice exam", "Pat had three unexcused absences the last week here", "Pat was in jail for a week and missed work". You can PAY a lawyer to sue the employer for giving valid facts about you from its files. Every court will dismiss the case; it is not defamation to report the facts to someone with a need to know (the prospective employer).
Most people can get around without their prosthetic limbs for a time, if not as well or as comfortably as with them. If attendance at the meeting was a condition of employment and the person was at work, or had missed work without permission or suitable cause, then firing the employee may be within the employer's rights. Each jurisdiction is different, so check with someone who knows the details of the jurisdiction where this has happened or might happen.
he has to eat sh!t
The boss kept warning his employee about the termination of his job if he kept missing meetings, and sure enough, the employee missed a meeting and lost his job.
Breaks are a matter of state law or employer policy.
If they had a good reason. i.e. the employee had been missing a lot of work, or to update them on something they need to know about on the day of work they missed, etc.
Bad test scores or periods of missed school.
