I have worked at my job for 7 months. It is a very small company with only 5 employees. A couple weeks ago my boss told me that we get December 24th and 25th off work and December 31st and January 1st off for the holidays. I had already checked the employee manual and had noticed those days were listed as paid holidays, so he wasn't telling me anything new. (By the way, I'm salaried) I have excellent attendance, but I did call in sick to work this past Thursday (horrible sinus infection). As we were all leaving work last night, my boss stopped me and told me that I need to report to work on Monday (Christmas eve) since I missed work Thursday. He's not making anyone else come in, just me! I'm not behind on my work, so it's not because I need to catch up. He's just punishing me. Since this day is listed as a paid holiday in the employee handbook, isn't he breaking the law? He is NOT planning on paying me time and a half. Could he fire me if I don't come in? (I'm in Indiana)
