Randstad hires temps mainly and work off a attendance point system. As I'm sure their sympathy was with you the companies they hire for will require termination if someone misses too many days regardless of reason and many times its the company they hire for that requires termination after 3 points. While I'm sure Randstad hopes that you are doing much better they are required to follow the policy of the company that they hire for.
