The policy of calling employees at home after they have called in sick should be administered on an individual basis. If there is reason to suspect abuse of sick leave or if all of the information desired is not provided at the time of the call in, a call to the employee's home is proper. However, these calls should be made at a reasonable hour. Under the circumstances, we consider the issue resolved and the case closed.
