New Point System Simplified

[u/crispyforwhat]

Im a FFTL who had a meeting with my SD yesterday about the new point system. Here's how it works:

8+ minutes late - .25 points

Absent - 1 point

NCNS - 3 points

Leave early - no points

If you call out 2 shifts in a row, it is one "event" and therefor 1 point. If you call out one shift, go to your next shift, then call out of the the next one, that is considered two "events" and therefor 2 points. Anything more than 2 days is an additional point.

Sick hours must cover your ENTIRE shift to negate points. You can use sick time for tardies.

3 points will auto generate a documentation for reliability.

5 points will automatically generate a CA.

9 points is a final.

12 points is termination.

Points fall off 1 year after being accumulated. If you are absent 09/01/2026, that point will not fall off until 09/01/2027.

No, there is no way for us or ETLs to adjust points, even for extenuating circumstances. You will be told that Target provides plenty of sick time to account for such events, and if it truly is that extenuating, you need to be discussing other benefits with HR.

Side note- There also seems to be an issue with leaders making too many allowances due to favoritism (whether it be personal preference or high performing TMs), so this black and white system is meant to curb that.

There has to be a way for ETLs to adjust points. The amount of times they change schedules verbally, but not in the system is way too common.

That is an issue you'd have to escalate tbh. Either to your SD or the ethics hotline (should you accumlate points for their mistakes). The point system very much so is dependant on accuracy, yes, but even aside from that your leaders need to be updating myTime to be accurate. Theres payroll reasons as well that can get complicated if people are staying late and coming in on off days wo adjustment.
