I found this forum in the hopes of finding some help,
In my sales role all performance is tracked across the division with easily accessible reporting. It’s this reporting that has been used in evidence it tally’s:
sales days (expected) ‘written at start of quarter obvs’
target (based on sales days expected)
Revenue achieved
% to revenue target
Sales days used
growth per day
numbers of sales made
in the disciplinary letters and subsequent meeting my performance as a % to target was the sole focus of the meeting. I was absolutely stunned to learn I was being disciplined for poor % to target against a 57 day target when I have only physically been at work 33 days!? ( my % to target against the 33 days worked ranks me in the 1/3 of the division) I was signed off work for the entire of February by my doctor and provided with a staggered return to work in March. I didn’t request this..i didn’t even know it was an option - however It was said in my return to work interview in March I would have a target reduction for March due to the reduced days in work and still receive full pay for the month, so obviously a no brainer to accept.
I have appealed the decision and have an appeal meeting next week. I just need to know ahead of time if my employer is acting within sensible guidelines? Am I just going to have to accept this regardless of any sense of fairness?
I have been with the business over 10 years and never faced a formal hearing like this before, it’s filled me with anxiety and bitterness towards the company to the point where I feel bullied and want to just leave.
appreciate any help please!!
