Attendance

All employees are required to adhere to the following attendance policy:

1. Arrival Time: Employees must be present in the office and ready to work 15 minutes prior to the official opening time. This allows for a smooth transition and ensures that all necessary preparations are made before the start of the workday.

2. Office Hours: The office opens promptly at the designated times stated above. Employees are expected to be present and prepared to work during these hours.

3. Late Arrivals: Punctuality is crucial for maintaining a productive work environment. Being late can disrupt workflow and impact team dynamics. Therefore, employees are allowed a maximum of three late arrivals per week. A late arrival is defined as arriving after the designated opening time. Beyond three instances, further tardiness will result in disciplinary action, including a writeup.

4. Prior Notification: If an unforeseen circumstance arises that may cause an employee to be late or absent, it is essential to notify your supervisor or the HR department as soon as possible. Communication and transparency are highly valued, and it allows us to make necessary adjustments and ensure smooth operations.

Note: Any deviations from the specified office hours require prior approval from your supervisor or the HR department. Special considerations may be made on a case-by-case basis, but it is essential to maintain open communication to manage expectations effectively.

Office Hours are subject to change.

We appreciate your commitment to punctuality and professionalism in adhering to these guidelines. By doing so, we can maintain a cohesive and efficient work environment that benefits everyone.
