they have a strict attendance policy that forces people to come in or lose 3 "attendance points" per... missed shift. You get .25 points for a perfect shift, and only get a maximum of 16 points. Once you go below 8 points, you start getting attendance notifications. Lots of people coming to work sick. They have run out of hand sanitizer and disinfectant wipes.Show More >

An email from them today Dear, The Police Association continues to meet daily with the Police Serv...ice regarding the COVID-19 outbreak. Our mandate is and always will be to ensure the safety and well-being of our members and their families. This situation continues to evolve quickly and the information I'm providing today, may change tomorrow. We want to thank the members currently out of the country that reached out letting us know their whereabouts. It's critically important we know where our members are so we can assess their potential risk of being exposed to COVID-19. At present, the Chief has directed that all members travelling and at home should follow the flow chart found posted around the station. The Chief has consulted President — as well as the Senior Leadership team and at this time is not implementing a mandatory 14 day self-isolation period for members returning from abroad. The flow chart outlines steps that should be taken to self-monitor for symptoms. The Chief Medical Officer for —— has issued recommendations for "essential workers". Everyone employed by the Police Service has been deemed to fit into this category. As such we are using the flow chart in accordance with these guidelines. If someone returned from out of country and is symptom free, they can return to work if they are an essential worker at their place of employment. If they go on to develop symptoms they stay home from work and begin their self-isolation. If a family returned from out of country and no one has symptoms, the children are required to self isolate for 14 days however the parents don’t have to. If anyone returns from out of country and they have symptoms that are consistent with Covid-19 they are to self isolate for 14 days The police service has a plan in place for the issuance of Personal Protective Equipment for officers as well as keeping the front desk open.Show More >

If we are totally capable of working form home - we do it if it snows too much - why when the Government is telling it's workers to work from home, do our managers think it's okay to tell us to stay? Sent out email saying to work from if possible but telling us we aren't capable when we have done it in past.

Although my employer is “encouraging” people work from home, they are ill-equipped and unprepared to... actually move 12,000+ employees online. Therefore, there is still pressure to come in to work, as we provide an “essential” service. During a global pandemic, my work is most definitely not essential.Show More >

Im a single parent of three during this outbreak that is sweeping our world by storm i don't know wh...at my children would do if i got sick and had to stay hospitalized for a period of time with that being said all of the other retail stores in my area are closing there doors 6 to 7 pm everyday (that includes grocery store). my work refuess to close by these times and asks there employees to stay open till 10 pm this is unacceptable for me and the safety of my co workers dollarama isn't an essential store that has to stay open for this long. My company does try to take precautions during this pandemic. They have asked us to clean the store in the morning but we deal with many customers a day and i feel that if this virus being so deadly the needs of my peers are not being meet which leads me to believe that they don't care about the health of there staff and only care about making money during this crises the world is facing at this time. i hope that my message reaches someone that can help us out.

Our head office is sending regular updates that it is ok to work from home, however our Winnipeg off...ice is making people work in office/making people feel guilty about working from home. They are not practicing social distancing at Petline and judging those that are not comfortable going into the office. Even if your role is easily done by home and you have worked from home in the past, it doesn’t matter, they want you there in office and are acting like this is just a flu.Show More >

Alberta’s elected officials are cutting budget. The Health is hit hard. They are planning to fire ov...er 7500 public servants, mainly nurses. Their focus is to pass the budget while everyone is distracted by the pandemic. Meanwhile, COVID-19 is spiking through Alberta. The Province is unprepared to react adequately . We don’t have the equipment to enable our staff to work from home. And the staff doesn’t have the necessary approvals from the political leadership to do so. Is this UCP’s way to cut the public service in half? Attrition by death instead of lay offs? @YourAlbertaShow More >

Shame on Canada's "most innovative" university for forcing thousands of administrative employees to ...brave crowded trains and packed streetcars to do work that can be done from any internet-connected computer. How many lives is each day of dithering worth? How many grieving families? What if one of them turns out to be yours? Look to Italy, then look to the people you love most in life, and maybe you'll understand your workers' rage. A few hiccups in service delivery or business continuity is nothing in contrast to what we could be facing within the week. Please.Show More >

Why isn’t Rogers giving permission to Concentrix to allow employees to work from home, or at least paid time off while Ontario is under a national emergency?
