Was unwell two days last week and being “coached” by another elevated position to tel payroll make a deduction from their upcoming paycheck. would you address it and if so what would be the advice you’d give?

I feel this is fair. PTO limits are designed to keep it staff. Yes taking off is important but there's also work to be done and the business relies on employees who show up.

The business needs coverage, and the PTO plans are usually designed around that.

The stickler in me says, well this person should keep time off for emergencies.

That being said... I do feel that sick time and PTO should be separate for this exact reason.

Unless it's your job to get involved I wouldn't.

Why is this your business?

more info needed....is there a separate sick bank? Does she log any type of work in a day she is home sick....answer any emails/texts/chats?? Being exempt makes it very tricky to deduct pay
