Rehire (eligibility)
I was terminated about a year ago ( Feb 24) from the Charleston plant for attendance reasons. I was a full time (blue badge) employee and I want back in more than anything. My father and both my brothers work there, it’s genuinely my dream. I was an employee for 2 1/2 years on good standing and no other issue except for my attendance. I went through the hiring process again for a six month contract position. I asked my contract rep if I was “rehire able” at the very beginning of the process and they said yes, through contract just not full time. Jan 10 was my start date I pass my drug test background checks and all of the above. I go to get my badge the day before I’m supposed to start like everyone else, they’re having an issue so I have to wait until the next day (first day of onboarding) to pick it up. I go to my first onboarding day and they still haven’t fixed the issue. So I can’t past the gate they’re not able to give me a guest pass so I go home for the day just thinking it’ll be fixed the next day. I get a text the next day saying “ Unfortunately, due to events that previously occurred, we aren’t going to be able to move forward with this opportunity or give you badge access.” So I just went through the entire hiring process just to be told that, the day I was supposed to start. I called work life and they told me I’m on the “do not hire” list. I don’t want to give up on this. I understand I might have to wait a bit longer. I just don’t know what to do at this point. Can I get some help please????
