Not surprisingly this has not been a very popular decision by corporate. The policy is supposedly under review, as of right now it is officially if you call off for any reason you have to use a PTO day even for weather.

Unless you "make an effort" to work. What that means is open for interpretation. Tt sounds like we have to come in, log into the truck for a few minutes, then tell a supervisor we do not feel safe running. I've also heard we need to a hook a set and leave the yard and come back

Someone at corporate is interpreting this law, and that break law very loosely. Will be interesting to see how this plays out.

OOS:

When a violation by either a driver or company is confirmed, an out-of-service order removes either the driver or the vehicle from the roadway until the violation is corrected.
