& Emergencies that sometimes are the cause of said Mandatory OT seldom
give notice... Although the ones that do, are usually doozies!

The notice is the thing. We work 4 x 10 hour days but if we are behind
it is common to ask them to come in on Friday. So we are not really
giving them much notice at all.

I'd give extra bonuses to the ones that actually showed up as required.
Reiterate that mandatory OT is required per job hiring/employee
handbook. Make everyone sign a note/policy moving forward.
Also make sure you give them sufficient notice if possible in the future
moving forward so they have no excuse...at least 48 - 36 hours.

Maybe a company-wide e-mail reaffirming that you occasionally have
OT to meet production demands? Full staff is expected on those days
to meet deadlines, but that you understand that there may be prior
obligations that can't be mitigated on a short notice. Accurately
stating that you can't come in due to prior obligations is highly
appreciated. Continual inability to meet emergency OT requirements
may result in disciplinary action. Abuse of the prior obligation
caveat may result in disciplinary action.

Not sure. As tight as the job market is I would be reluctant to let
them go. But normally I would let them go. Service industries have
mandatory OT at times. It was made known to them at the time of hire.
If they were told the day before that the next day is OT, that is
the time for them to say they have something planned. But faking
sick (if indeed they are faking) is not going to work for me. Just
not sure what the proper response should be so for now I am just
grumbling to you guys.

What if rather then calling in sick they just told you no? Would you
prefer that?

We had a situation where we needed everyone to show up on an off
day to push through a project. Mandatory OT. ____

Half the crew called in sick. These young folks want more
money, here I am offering them 10 hours of time and a half, and
they would rather try to convince me they are on death’s door?____

Not sure where to draw the line. If they are truly sick, OK
fine, sorry, hope you feel better soon. ____
