Continuous Service Policy
Applies to all WSL Team Members
Purpose
To provide guidelines for managers and team on continuity of service for team members who have resigned from their employment with Warehouse Stationery and are later re-employed by Warehouse Stationery.
Policy/Procedure
We are aware that you sometimes have to leave our employment due to unforeseen circumstances, such as your partner or family moving to a new location. We also recognise that due to limited vacancies, it is not always possible to transfer to a Warehouse Stationery store at this new location when you move. We want to be able to retain your skills and knowledge and when this is not possible in the first instance but there is an opportunity later on, we believe your length of service should be recognised. Therefore where you leave our employment you will have 3 months to return to permanent employment and keep your service record intact. The original start date of employment will remain, with only the time away being deducted. (Please note that this policy does not apply in cases of redundancy.)
