RE: Attendance Tracking System - Reminder
Importance:
High
Attention: All Hourly Employees
REMINDER
As stated in previous
bulletins, it is mandatory that all hourly employees call the Attendance
Tracking System (ATS) toll free number 1-866-893-0576
at least a half hour before the start of
their shift (when they will be arriving late or absent for work). Calling
into the ATS System will not justify your time off from work, but will allow
management to properly plan/staff their lines for start-up. Effective
January 9th, 2006, It
will be each and ever employees responsibility to follow the ATS call-in
procedures, failure to do so will result in discipline.
Employees calling
for FMLA time off will still be required to call the ATS system and
Security at 734-671-7131 to record their absence.
Employees calling in
for medical time-off will only be required to make one initial call to ATS based
on their return to work (RTW) date. If the medical period exceeds the
initial RTW date, another call to ATS will need to be placed to extend their RTW
date. This process should be duplicated until the employee sucessfully
returns to work.
Please follow the
procedures below when accessing the ATS System:
- Enter their 9 digit
social security number
- Enter their eight
digit Ford Service Date (Example, July 15, 1996 would be entered as
07151996). A common error is that employees fail to enter the
entire year when entering their eight digit Ford Service Date.
- Press 1 if tardy,
press 2 if absent
- Press 1 to confirm
selection, press 2 to change selection
- If absent select one
of the following reasons for absence:
- Illness
- Transportation
Problems
- Personal
Business
- Family Emergency
- Inclement
Weather
- Other
- Enter the expected
return to work date using eight digits (Example, August 29, 2005 would
be entered as 08292005). A common error is that employees fail to
enter the entire year when entering their expected return to work date.
- Press 1 if correct,
press 2 to change information
- Record the
confirmation number issued.
If for some reason the ATS
system is down, employees are to report their absence to Plant Security at (734)
671-7131 and document the confirmation number. Calling in to the ATS
system does not approve an employee's absence; it is only a notification
procedure to assist in manpower planning. Employees are still required to clear
their unscheduled absence with their supervisor upon their return.
Employees failing to report an absence will be subject to disciplinary action.
Please feel free to contact
Anthony Picciuto (SPOC) at 734-671-7383 if you have any ATS questions.
