Point System

[Peter Parker]

Does anyone have foresight on the new point system Target plans to implement in 2026 ? They haven't told us anything yet at my store.

Haven't heard anything at store level. If it starts in February we should hear something soon.

Thanks for the info. Yeah there have been rumblings around my store but noone other than leads have been told anything yet. My store usually doesn't tell us anything they expect us to look into these things on our own .

Over the years I have found out important information from other team members talking in the break room than anywhere else.

Yeah usually someone who is close friends with managers will spill everything around the whole store but nothing from anyone yet. They are playing this pretty close to the vest. I rarely call in maybe like 3 to 4 times a year , I do have elder parents and a brother who just had a kidney transplant so who knows what next year holds but i dont want this new point system to get me fired for things that are out of my control.

I would assume sick pay (or protected PTO as Walmart calls it with their point system) would still excuse an absence or late.

I wonder if it'll mean calling out 3 consecutive days is the same as calling out 1 day (like it was at Wal-Mart when my gf worked there several years ago). I believe they used a points system
