Dear Seniors,
I need an immediate help...
I am working as HR in a company .
The employees in my company once in a while used to take half day leaves or an hr early leaves(which i thought was natural and happens in every company).
Yesterday morning the management kept a meeting with HR team and said that half day system is to be taken off from the company.
Half day leaves or an hour early leave will not be given to employees hence forth.
If an employee wants to take half day or an early leave, he has to take the entire day leave and has to be informed the previous day itself.
Also the management asked the HR team to make a notice on this and inform the employees. We did the same.
Now the employees are all coming against the management and HR and saying that they need half day system or else they need an alternate for that,because they do not take such leaves purposefully but for their personal but unavoidable needs which they cannot keep aside just because they are working.
I personally support the employees but did not say that out or comment on what they said.
Now my query is:
1)is there actually a practice or system of half day in companies?
2)was that right of the management to take off this system?
3)any alternate for half day system?(as the employees demanded)
Please advice....I am looking for an urgent response if you don't mind. :)
