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.

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.
