One day off can i have my pay docked?

Post by Leebest112 »

Hi i was off today as i wasn't feeling well.
I'm ok now im just a bit disappointed to use up an absence just for one day.
I was just wondering is it possible if i returned to work, the next day would it be possible just to lose a days pay?
And then hopefully that day wont go down as an absence.
My absence record isn't great so that would be ideal.

Otherwise i may aswell just take a few more days off, the way the sick leave works.

I don't think there is a process to allow that unless you get on with the manager and he puts it down as special leave. But if, as you suggest, your sick record is not good, it's pretty unlikely they will.
