An Administrative Assistant really should not be handling this matter. This is a delicate matter, to put it mildly, and may cause someone (probably HR) a lot of grief in the long run. I believe a supervisor should do a formal evaluation once a yea…

We just recently went thru Hurricane Rita and Katrina, and were closed for 2 days and we paid employees for those 2 days without deducting from their leave bank. When the office reopens, and an employee cannot make it in, then we deduct time from th…

It is hard to believe that anyone would think raising one's voice at anyone in the workplace, throwing around the "f" word, and then hanging up on that person is anything other than hostile and inappropriate behavior in any kind of work environment!…

That letter was the best thing she could have sent to you, and the worst thing she could have done for herself. haha! No way she can dispute that she resigned. However, I would still report to my WC carrier and explain the situation to them with …

We are a business office with clerical workers and we do have a shoe policy included in our dress code. No open toes, no sandals, and shoes must have a closed back as well. In other words, no slip on shoes. This ensures a professional appearance …

TAD, Does the school system have a worker's comp insurance carrier? If so, the injury should have been reported to them and they should be paying the employee. In Louisiana, after an employee has been out with a job related injury for 7 days, incl…

Don, Court appointed attorneys are for individuals who are charged with a crime, such as a felony or misdemeanor, and who cannot afford to hire an attorney. They are not for civil matters such as when an employee sues an employer. (EE Vs. ER) In …

Sounds like this employee has a false sense of entitlement! Will he eventually want you to stand in line at the bank, deposit his check, and wait for cash back, and then go grocery shopping for him too? Two things I would do: 1-Give employee date…

I would not take their PTO or vacation, but I would inform them prior to the required work that it is mandatory that they work the required days, and inform them that an absence will be unexcused and discipline will follow unless the absence is conf…

I keep personnel records in locked "Personnel File Cabinet"; medical records, including supplemental insurance electives, in a separate locked cabinet; attendance records in a locked "Attendance File Cabinet"; and 1 accordian style folder with all I…

seeleyhr, Have you noticed that in the name line of messages it gives the state location incorrectly?

It's a paid holiday for us.

Verbal warnings are given by the supervisor and documented, however, if the problem is not corrected and a written warning is given, it is first discussed with HR. Documentation is always accomplished with the supervisor and HR. Disciplinary meet…

In LA the waiting period is 7 days.

Break and lunch periods not required in Louisiana either, but I know of no one in Louisiana who isn't allowed at least a lunch period.

Louisiana law requires an employer to pay the regular hourly or salary for one day that an employee serves on jury duty. After one day it is up to the employer's policy as to whether or not to continue paying employee. Our policy pays employees …

We are also closed on Good Friday. It is one of 15 holidays that we are allowed to close. I'm in the "deep South" as well. Most businesses, other than retail, are closed on Good Friday in this part of the country. Louisiana! If we would not be …

Seems to me that 3 definate violations exist here. One, wasting time at work. Two, using company property to do personal business, and three, violating zero tolerance on porn, if you have such a policy. Frequency and content should be examined. …

We have a written policy that allows us to ask an employee to use their PTO during slow periods. Without a written policy showing that the employees know of this policy you are on shaky ground.

My prayers are with you too. My suggestion is (1) give employers notice now about needing FMLA. Employer does have to pay it's normal portion of medical insurance while you are on FMLA and you would pay what you normally pay. FMLA can be with or…

In the state of Louisiana, accumulated vacation time must be paid at termination of employment. That is why we changed our policy to 2 types of PTO; 1 is vacation paid leave and it must be used by the end of the year or it is lost, and the other is…

Do not forget to include the following: Cobra notification to the new employee and their family members. AND HIPAA Notice of Privacy Good Luck!

I am not sure about Kansas, but in the state of Louisiana, employers may not deduct from a leave bank for any employee serving on jury duty. Also, an employer is required to pay for 1 day of work missed due to jury duty. Most employers within our …

Are you an at-will state? If so, I would not take any chances. He would no longer have a part-time job with me. The children should be your number 1 concern. If you aren't an at-will state, I believe you have sufficient grounds to terminate th…

Paranoid? Probably so. I understand how you might feel, but one also has to think of upper management's position. There's a job to do and someone's got to do it. It's important that any telecommuting job be well defined so there is no miscommuni…

The IRS recently issued Revenue Ruling 2002-88. This gives guidance regarding COBRA coverage and divorce. According to this ruling you are right on the mark Linda. At-A-Girl!
