Hi folks. Unfortunately in recent times i have hit a spell of poor health. Consequently i have triggered and been issued with a stage 2 attendance warning.
My issue is that i am unaware off the procedure in the regard that, When i clear my stage 2 in 6 months do i revert back to my stage 1 again for 1 year or
am i clear off all warnings?? I have asked in house both senior manager and two reps. All three had no idea. Cheers!

Attendance standards
The formal process consists of two reviews and consideration of dismissal. The table below sets out the attendance standards required
All employees (except triallists)
Attendance review 1 prompt
4 absences or 14 days in a 12 month period
Attendance review 2 prompt
2 absences or 10 days in the next 6 months following an attendance review 1 formal notification
Consideration of dismissal prompt
2 absences or 10 days in the next 6 months following an attendance review 2 formal notification

Employees on 2nd review who do better than the standard required with no more than 1 absence of 4 days or less will come off the formal attendance process.
Employees on 2nd review with 1 absence of more than 4 days but less than ten will revert to 1st review and will remain on Review 1 for six months.
Employees who are on attendance review 2 and do not meet the attendance standards may be considered for dismissal. If they are not dismissed they may be issued with
a new attendance review 2.

Doesn't that just sum up this place?

Senior managers probably do know.... but it suits them to decrease the surplus postie population and s**t reps who don't even know the attendance procedure.
Thankfully apple has given you the correct procedure so now you can educate a few more people on it.
