As the saying goes, without rules, no circle can be formed. In order to restrain the behavior of workers, enterprises will formulate relevant rules and regulations, mainly to facilitate the management of the company and enable the company to develop in a healthy way. Of course, these rules must also be reasonable and reasonable. , but also in compliance with laws and regulations.

Zhang Li is a customer service representative of a company. The company is mainly engaged in the business of leasing some electronic products, and Zhang Li's usual work is mainly responsible for guiding customers to carry out product leasing, or dealing with some simple problems. Zhang Li, who was at work that day, received a call from home saying that Zhang Li's mother was ill and asked Zhang Li to go back to take care of her for two days.

In the afternoon, Zhang Li came to the office and asked the department leader for leave, but the leader said that the business has been busy recently and it is not allowed to ask for leave, otherwise it will be treated as absenteeism. In Zhang Li's opinion, the health and safety of her family is more important than work, so she packed up and went home that afternoon.

It will be three days before Zhang Li returns to the company. The leader didn't talk to Zhang Li or anything, Zhang Li thought it was over like this. However, when the salary was paid at the end of the month, it was discovered that the three days of absence were counted as absenteeism, and Zhang Li’s salary was directly deducted for nine days. Zhang Li went to the leadership theory. The leader said that this is the company's rules and regulations. If I didn't approve your vacation, it should be counted as absenteeism.

For such a leader, Zhang Li did not have too many disputes with him, and knew that she could not compete with him, so Zhang Li resigned that day. But the matter did not end here. Zhang Li filed a lawsuit against the company to the arbitration tribunal, asking the company to pay compensation and pay more deductions from her salary.

The results can be imagined. There is no clear provision in the Labor Contract Law that three days of wages will be deducted for each day of absence from work. Generally, the number of days of wages should be calculated based on how many days the worker has been on duty. Since Zhang Li did not go to work for only three days, her salary should be deducted for only three days. The company's behavior of deducting three days a day for absenteeism has seriously violated the labor contract law. In the end, the company was sentenced to repay Zhang Li's salary. Because the company violated the rules first, it was necessary to pay Zhang Li's additional compensation.

If you are Zhang Li and encounter such a thing, do you acquiesce or take up the weapon of law to protect your rights? Write in the comments.
