ee calling 15 min after start time..."i overslept, do you still want me to come into work?". I asked him "do you still want your job?" I love the common law ones! I hear that all the time, they want to argue the law. I tell them to retain a lawy…

I'm in Michigan, winters are long and cold. We have a outdoor yard and a few ee's assigned to that area. I cought one drinking. When confronted the ee told me "I won't lie you you, It's cold outside. I take a nip here and there to stay warm."

We had OSHA come in on a tip that our air was not clean to breath in a repair department. This department has 18 employees, and they DA sand parts. The MIOSHA representative hooked up 4 ee's to a ventilater type machine. One ee was throwing dirt …

Have you ever stayed home with a child?? Trust me, some days you need a drink! Or some time out with other adults. This person most likely has a spouce or friend/family member who whork days and can babysit at night so the "care taker" can get out…

Documentation is the Key. Did you document any past performance, absent, and other issues? Also look up your company policies on the after hour work and what type of approval is needed. I would go sit down with your HR person and have a private m…

I feel your frustrations. I am getting ready to go on my leave in a few weeks! I like Don D's suggestion of highlighting the FMLA and discussing it with your boss/or the VP or both. (Don always has great advise). The Law is the Law. I am using my…

Thanks for your quick responce. So then, after she has the baby, the "hours" left are what she can take as the remainder of her FMLA, if she needs more time, then we can charge her the COBRA on her insurance, right?

touchy...we have that here. 2 ee's diff. departments. One missed, they both miss. Our company requires a dr note on each office visit, this covers her, but it is not medically necessary for him to be there. I had to talk to him. Our company wil…

are you an "at will" employment state? I would lay him off. document everything. how is his attendance and performance? bottom line, he was released to full duty. refusal to work should be a company violation.

our health care carrier sent me a written release that the ee has to sign authorizing the administrator (you) to call on claims. it really is a headache..and who need the additional paperwork!

Your post made me laugh. You described about 20 of our best employees! Our company is in an empowerment zone, of ther inner city (detroit). As long as his work performance is not suffering, he is not trheatening ohters, he is on time and does wha…
