Colleague being told to come 4 Days/week due to poor performance.
Hi all,
We have a colleague from a different team working in a call center like environment and the colleague isn’t the best at time utilization - ie when a call is finished forgets to put themselves as available or isn’t on the phones as much as the other team members in their team.
Now my question, the employee was called into a meeting and was told they will need to be in office 4 days a week to better be monitored as they aren’t trusted to do the job properly. They have always gotten succeeded and on the last one they got a succeeded minus. Not in PIP or anything.
The manager (new to their team) has told them they will have to be in office 4 days a week ahead of the July mandate. The employee is scared to reach out to the union in case the manager retaliates and makes their life miserable on other aspects of the job unrelated to this issue.
This manager was responsible for another team member (manager’s previous team) going on stress leave due to the amount of micromanaging.
Is this allowed ? Can the manager mandate someone to come in to office more than the TB mandate ?
Thank you for reading this far (if you have 🙂)
