Being forced to take vacation time.
Hi!
I am a salaried employee in North Carolina, and as such, understand that I am expected to work additional hours as needed without additional compensation. My concern is that I am being required to take vacation time when I miss an hour of work due to a doctor's appointment.
I thought that being salaried meant that I would make my salary regardless of how many hours I work, as long as I am getting everything done.
Did that make sense? I am having some serious problems with this policy, but want to know if this is normal practice.
Thanks!
