My supervisor said that – in our department – we’ll manage attendance the way we’ve been doing it (and not change to meet the new program). Can he/she do that?

Please come see us in HR to discuss.  Operating under our old policy or supervisors managing their attendance “like they always have” is no longer an option.  The new time-off policy was effective 9/30/2019.  Any further questions on the time off policy, please come see us in HR.
