Recent modifications to the UAW/GM Agreement have created changes to the attendance policy that all GM Unit members should be aware of.
When an absence or tardiness could not be planned in advance, employees are required to call in to report their absences or tardiness at least thirty (30) minutes prior to the scheduled starting time of the shift for which they will be absent or tardy unless they can provide a satisfactory reason to Management for such a failure to call in. The number to call is 1-800-222-8889. If an employee fails to call in, the absence is considered an instance in the attendance procedure:
A. One (1) day or two (2) consecutive days of absence will be treated as one (1) absence.
B. Absences of three (3) or more consecutive days will be treated as two (2) separate absences.
C. Tardiness of four (4) hours or more, or five (5) hours or more in plants with Alternative (i.e. four – 10 hour days per week) Work Schedule.
