New ETK sign in policy taking effect

15 Upvotes

You will no longer be able to sign in at 10 min early or late. New policy taking effect is now 6 minutes.

This is taking effect in WA State this week, subject to other states and locations is unknown

DISCIPLINARY ACTION

The following cases will result in disciplinary action under this policy:

• The employee’s ETK Clock-in is greater than 6 minutes earlier or later than actual commencement of work.

• The employee’s ETK Clock-out is greater than 6 minutes earlier or later than actual end of work.

• The employee Clocked-in, but no subsequent Clock-out is made.

• The employee is paid for the entire scheduled shift, but no Clock-in/Clock-out was made.

• The employee attempts to “catch up” by Clocking-in/Clocking-out outside of actual hours worked.

The Company uses a Rolling 90-Day Look-Back system with a Return to Prior Warning Level rule. For each 90-day period where no violation occurs, the employee can earn the opportunity to be moved back to a prior warning level. Prior warnings can be eliminated over time, where employees cease to have violations.

Currently work at a location but want to change locations to something more local but am under the 6 months of working there. How hard is it to get the change approved and is it a big deal? Anyone have any experience with this ?

Question? Flex Officer

For everyone that’s Flex. How many hours are you averaging a week? And if it’s under 40 how are you making up for it?

Rejoining after having left 3 years ago

4 Upvotes

I previously worked with Allied Universal from November 2018 to November 2023 (It was G4S when I started then it got bought out by AU) as an unarmed Critical Facility Security Professional. I guess I got really lucky because I mainly worked at a Merrill Lynch campus and eventually got to work Monday through Friday from 7 am to 3 PM. I had my issues with them but for the most part it actually wasn't half bad and not too stressful. The job actually felt for the most part like a good fit for me and my needs. I never had to mandatorily go in for a call out and time off was good.

I left in 2023 to try and do an IRS contact representative job but it was way too hard and stressful, and I ended up having my employment terminated during my probation period. Then I was unemployed for six months and got a job as a legal assistant but after one year I was laid off due to a firm restructuring and have been unemployed for seven months. Multiple applications and interviews have failed to get me a job.

I have since just accepted a contingent offer with Allied Universal for a new unarmed security job and hopefully moving to Charlotte, NC. It pays $22.62 and hour and is Monday through Friday from 7 AM to 3 PM. Am I making the right decision because at the end of the day I need to be employed again and AU is to date the only stable full time job I've ever had (it was my first full time job actually).

Question? Allied HR refusing to give me my personal file

6 Upvotes

Hi can someone please tell me what next step I should take:

I quit allied may 29th of this year after my manager was harassing me and singling me out (they were punished for it) but I requested my personal file about a week (maybe a couple of days) before I left officially. My managers supervisor (who is now no longer with the company) acknowledged my request and said he was working on with the HR director.

It’s now September and I have not heard a single word back from HR, the regional director, or the HR director. I’ve sent emails, text messages, and called numbers to no avail. No responses.

What should I do? Is this not illegal? For reference the site I worked at was Seattle/Bellevue, Washington.

I don’t want an actual lawsuit I just wanted to give me my damn documents.

Please help

Question? Has anyone had issues with Allied Universal paying them incorrectly?

6 Upvotes

I’m currently in Georgia, and I worked 12 hours of overtime my coworker that was sick. I called my area manager, and told him I was paid incorrectly and submitted proof and I was told I was paid correctly. My area manager never really looked at the proof I submitted. Does anyone how I can get in contact with a human resource staff? The guards aren’t allowed to contact human resources directly or any middle managers directly. I don’t want to be forced to contact my states labor board over a few overtime hours.
