Summary of Unilateral Revision of the

VZ Mid-Atlantic Regional Attendance Plan,

effective May 1, 2006

Below is the notification by Verizon to the Union.

Effective May 1, 2006, the Mid-Atlantic Regional Attendance Plan will be modified to more effectively address absenteeism and tardiness in the Mid-Atlantic region.  A copy of the revised Plan is attached.

The revised Plan provides, in part, that an employee will be placed on Step 1 of the Plan if the employee has:

  • two chargeable incidents of absence in 6 months; or,

  • one chargeable incident of absence three (3) days or greater; or

  • four (4) chargeable incidents of significant tardiness (or equivalent minor tardiness) in 6 months; or

  • any combination of 1 chargeable incident of absence and 2 or more

  • chargeable incidents of significant tardiness (or equivalent minor tardiness) in 6  months

  • In addition, an employee will move directly from Step 1 to Step 3 if s/he has a chargeable incident of absence within 6 months that exceeds three (3) days.

  • The definition of significant tardiness has been changed from 6 minutes or more to 5 minutes or more. 

  • This change makes the tardiness definition in Potomac and New Jersey the same as the existing definition in Pennsylvania and Delaware. 

Also, two tardies within six months advance the employee from Step 1 to each succeeding Step, making the Potomac and New Jersey standard the same as the existing standard in Pennsylvania and Delaware.
