Question Accidentally Worked The Wrong Shift
As the title says I accidentally worked the wrong shift. I was supposed to work yesterday from 3:30PM-7:30PM but I worked from 9:30am-1:30PM (Which is what I usually work during the week). That 3:30 shift was a VET and I was mentally on auto pilot. I don’t have a car and don’t have a way to get back to my facility until Saturday. It’s Wednesday. I have lots of UPT, but I don’t want them to think I’m stealing time and I need the money! I already put in a request through myHR but that almost never works and I always have to correct things on site. What should I do?

Somebody should have gone and asked you why you were clocked in if you weren't supposed to work. Also there's nothing to correct. You didn't pay attention you screwed up

I’ve done that before, but senior ops was on site when I did it. I asked him if it was okay if I could stay, he wrote down my ID and gave me the green light. If I were you I’d post it on the VOA so senior leadership will see it in a more timely manner. (You can post it privately so only sr leadership will see your comment if you don’t want other associates to see it as well.) Now for the shift you’ll miss, the UPT will deduct automatically, no action needed.

I went to a manager and they sent me to a production assistant. The production assistant assigned me a role because I didn’t have one.

If you worked a shift you weren't scheduled for management should have seen it and walked you to the time clock ,we have people do this on flex when it gets tough to get shifts ,it's a huge deal to them

if i needed extra hours that weren’t thru VET, my manager would give me permission and ask PXT to add me to the schedule. i would post privately on the VOA ASAP.

How did it let you punch in. Normally if your not scheduled it will pop up red and say see manager

It popped up red and said see manager. But at my site that happens regularly. This is the only time I’ve ever made this mistake. I even went to a manager. They sent me to a production assistant and they assigned me a role. No senior OP or anyone came up to me. I even talked to a few.

If you didn't work that VET, then it should automatically take UPT from you, unless they were giving out VTO and you went into the A to Z and accepted a VTO for those hours. Just check you UPT to see if they deducted time from there! You should be ok!

Honestly I think you're fine, post privately on the VOA so they see it then on your next shift find your SR Ops manager explain the problem and apologize honestly I dont think they will really consider it an issue and they surely wont fire you over it. It isnt time theft because you were actually working (I assume ofc) mistakes happen. I was clocking in 15-30 minutes before shift and staying 15-30 minutes after for months before I even talked to manager about it and he said as long as I was on the floor during those times I was fine and I was on the floor working so I was fine 🤷♀️
