Yeah they changed it. Show up to work or the next time you come in you get hit on the ass with a paddle of Merlo's face
 
Yeah thats what i have been told, i cant believe it. company usually encourage people to stay home if you are sick but this is totally opposite. it seems like if i get sick, I dont care I'll be at work, puking - I dont wanna get occurrence- a corrective action
and this new policy is from healthcare company
 
This is to help deter abuse of sick time. As you know, CVS technically gives unlimited sick time (with stipulations of how long each period can be), so many associates will call out numerous times throughout the year and put a heavy burden on those at the store. The new policy gives a recommended disciplinary structure that does not have the potential for termination until the 11th occurrence (3 conservative days off would be considered 1 occurrence) within a rolling 12 month period. If you actually have 11 unapproved absences within 12 months, you really deserve to get fired.

According to new policy if you are sick for 3 days you will get 3 occurrence, and won't be just 1 even if you bring doctor note.
 
Are pharmacists even allowed to call in sick? I've never missed a day. I was sick twice in January and just went to work everyday, yet the techs have a woe is me attitude about everything and will call off multiple days in a row for a headache.
