  • You guys are too funny. I seldom read this section but it's Friday and it's been another helluva week. I've been checking daily and that's an increase. Love the bathtub stories. I'm gonna have to make time to read these posts more often. Need the…
  • I am considering going via the community college program linked w/ SHRM. It starts in March and runs a couple of months. Has anyone prepared for their certification exam this way?

  • Ray A, Sorry to read you are leaving. Yours is a familiar name among several. I don't post often but view regularly and have benefitted from your wit and wisdom. Happy Trails! Debbie
  • You guys crack me up!
  • Artful response and thanks for your input. Being October 31st (any my sister's birthday) I hope everyone out there has a Happy Halloween! -Debbie
  • I don't take Christ out of Christmas. When I'm typing I often use my own shortened versions of words, not to take a position, but to save time. Such shortened words for me include "incl, w/, w/o, exc, C'mas, T'giving, the kids' B'days, Thnx, rec'g…
  • These have been some great ideas. Thnx so much!
  • Congratulations to you, Christy, and best wishes to you all.

  • I'm 2nd generation in family business & have worked for the mfg/mail order company for 27 years. (Small co-50 EEs). I've worked in nearly every department. Currently, Acctg/HR/CSR Supervisor. As part of management I have direct input on directio…
  • We have a 1st aid/comfort kit in each of 3 buildings. It includes the usual 1st aid assortment and 3 versions of pain relievers, and have had this for 20 years. We have had instances of abuse. We have had to remind employees that it's purpose is t…
  • Thnx for feedback. Pretty much talked myself out of it and your responses confirm the decision.
  • I agree with these posts. The "pattern of absences" has emerged that can be addressed as a performance issue, pointing out the impact on productivity, moral, etc. You can document the pattern and the coaching session, and give them amnesty and let…
  • Our personnel files have individual folders inside including one for performance history and a separate one for benefits administration. I reign over these files and supervisors only get the info they need to make whatever decision they have to mak…
  • I have a sample. Email me @ [email]dlail@steelerubber.com[/email] for an attachment.
  • We created one, if interested send me your email: [email]dlail@steelerubber.com[/email]
  • Thanks - that covers the extremes and we can craft a policy that fits us.
  • Would like a copy of this policy - thnx so much, [email]dlail@steelerubber.com[/email]
  • Would also like a copy: [email]dlail@steelerubber.com[/email]
  • If you have success getting a 360 format, I would also be interested in getting a copy. DSL, NC
  • Depending on the day, my title is HR Mgr., CFO, Office Mgr.; We have a bookkeeper 10 ft from me who processes payroll, but I generally complete payroll reports, set up new ees, and all other HR functions. We both can process P/R, so we don't have o…
  • I agree w/ mwild31 - it must be the company size that makes the difference. When reviewing the responses, the word that kept coming into my head for an ee touchy-feely - was "options" Provide the employees with options. If it's their idea it does…
  • I haven't seen the huge savings yet. Maybe it's because we're under 100. We distribute checks, don't mail them, no savings there; a direct deposit stub is printed, so maybe an incremental savings between 20# bond and checks; our system allows for …
  • Are there states that actually allow mandatory D/D and NOT let ee's choose bank?
  • We offer D/D, but not mandatory. We have about 50% or slightly over participation in D/D. I run the paychecks but I have D/D and check because I'm the one who has to get the lunch money, allowance, etc. and teller machines only disburse $20 bills.…
  • We seldom close for inclement weather; we have generator and battery backup to support at minimum customer service for mail order company. Locally people freak when a snowflake threatens the area and will choose to leave work the second there are f…
  • We include a statement as well (in letter format) that accompanies the W2 statement. Ours includes unemployment and ER Fica/Mcare tax portions as well.
  • People like that are really only interested if you're making more than they - that gives them (they think) amunition for requesting a raise.
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 12-12-02 AT 10:36AM (CST)[/font][p]7am to 3:30 shift w/ 30min lunch. . .
  • Why assume that? They leave @ 3:30 unless they're working overtime.
  • We use the 7 minute window as NaeNae does. If they are not authorized to begin work early but show up 20-30 minutes early and do not intend to start work until the shift begins (7am in our case) they are instructed not to punch in until they are to…
