A friend (no really) has had a bit of time off sick from work, signed off by a doctor, a few months later after they had returned had 1.5 days sick, when returning they were told by their manager they would receive 0 pay for this 1.5 day. When they checked their employee handbook, it states employees will receive 50% of pay, if x amount of sickness is taken in a calendar year.
They have taken this up with HR, who say it is up to a managers discretion, but no mention of this in employee handbook. Thoughts?
