Most of the businesses these days charge us with penalty if we are late to work and it could be equal to one day salary deduction.

When I was working as a salesman in a big store, we do mark attendance. So when we come late, there is an amount that is always deducted from our salary

I used to work in an office that you need to clock into a computerized machine. So if you are late you would have a deduction for that day.

Mine threatened to deduct but they don't. The one time they deducted, there was backlash and they stopped. In my office, staff have so much power because we are united.

No, our office does not charge any penalty for being late to work. However, it is important to be punctual and to adhere to the office's policies and procedures.

Well, there are jobs where one can not afford to be late. I am into one of those. I work in a school as special educator and counselor. I have to be in time for my one to one sessions with students or parents. I don't want that someone should keep waiting. Also, that's not a professional approach. I have a fixed timings for my sessions. I charge hourly rate and so it's not fair on my part to be late. I make sure that I reach early enough to relax and gather myself before I begin with my sessions. My performance and creativity is badly impacted if I am in rush.

It's a shame too if arrive to we work late especially in teaching when students are there waiting while their teacher isn't around.
I totally agree. As a teacher we bear a responsibility to pass on good values to next generation. And being late to work is definitely not a good value..I will keep preaching about punctuality and importance of time in the class. But my students would not care about those preaching lessons if they don't find me doing it myself.

They are kids and their minds are not fully developed they must be fed with the right values for when they grew mature those they learned from you won't depart from them.

When I am still working in my previous companies, they do give penalties for lates. In my opinion, it can be offset for the overtime work. It is a matter of being considerate.

Thy used to do it in my workplace and that's one of the major reasons I resigned. They refused to increase my salary when I told them it is a condition for me to be early to work.

When I was working for a company, we don't get charged penalty for coming to work late but we are going to be issued query for us to answer and make sure that it doesn't happen again.

Now a days, I see that more and more workplaces are being flexible with the timings. Unless the job demands you to be there on certain time,.most offices give you the flexibility..they just make sure that your log in and log out hours are within the set hours by the company.. They are giving more breathing space to the workers
