Card · situation and steps, not a judgment

Absence needs both the reason and the days. Half a match does not open this article.

Live crosswalk： §12

Tap a card. Stop names the line. Act is a checklist. Find picks the desk.

Stop

§12(1)(6) states two things: no proper reason, and three consecutive days of absence, or six days in a month. The Supreme Court has split them: one without the other does not let the employer end the contract without notice. §12(2): for item 6, the termination has to happen within thirty days of actually knowing.

Act

Check when done

Mark the days they were supposed to work. Do not count the weekly day off, or leave already approved, as absence.Keep the leave slip, the approval, and the refusal, each with a date. Skipping the procedure and having no reason are two different columns.Write the day you became sure the absence had no proper reason. The thirty days run from that day, not from the first rumor.

Find

If the days or the reason are not both there, do not send a termination letter yet. If you do send one, put only the dates you have checked. The desk is mediation or a lawyer, not the group chat.
