Call Out Procedures. When an Associate is going to miss all or part of his/her scheduled shift, communication with management about the time away is of utmost importance. Advance notice provides the Company with at least an opportunity to try and find a substitute or otherwise plan on how to deal with being short staffed. All Absences, Lateness, and Early-Outs Must be Communicated to Management. Whether the absence or lateness is excused or unexcused, the Associate must call to report his/her absence or lateness unless he/she is physically unable to do so. If the Associate’s Manager is unavailable the Associate may leave a recorded message or a message with another person, though the Associate must call the Manager back the same day and discuss the absence with his/her Manager. This will ensure that the message has been received and gives the Associate the opportunity to discuss with his/her Manager when he/she plans to return to work.
