Holy cow - this case could be huge! Many, if not most, employers have a provision in their policies that prevent employees from disparaging the company publicly... If the NLRB is going to rule that Facebook pages are not public, then what else mig…

If this were limited to the delivery date and a week or two afterwards, it would probably be fine. Unfortunately, it sounds as if you may be setting yourself up for an intermittent FMLA headache that could last for a few years.

I listen to a lot of tech-oriented podcasts. (Yes... I'm that guy.) Several years ago, when Facebook was still significantly smaller than MySpace, Zuckerberg was already a popular topic with podcasters due to his personality quirks and awkwardness i…

Can't happen, KDI... If she tries to be different again tomorrow, then it's the same as today. We've actually seen her institutionalized over matters less confusing.

Yeah... didn't see that one either. Of course, I have the advantage of being able to discern movies from real life. Remember how depressed you were after we told you [I]2001: A Space Odessey[/I] wasn't a recent documentary?
-
I haven't seen it, and probably won't. I was following it pretty closely as it happened, and I guess I feel like I've already "seen" it.

[quote=kbunes;720946]I'm new to the forums but as in the world of Facebook...I would definitely reply "Like" to this thread [/quote] Good, because we've already friended you and started to photoshop your face on all our kegstand pictures.

"Special due process rights?" The right to due process is granted to all by the 14th Amendment of the Constitution. I'm trying to think of possible circumstances that can bestow "special" constitutional rights on anyone and can't... Can you be mo…

[quote=Paul in Cannon Beach;720935]I love being on the West Coast. You can insult most of the forum and they won't know it for 12 hours![/quote] If ever. .

When you say "all your friends" does that include your Facebook friends? And how would that work? This just sounds entirely unworkable.

I've not done it, and I have no actual knowledge about it, but... I would think this would be even easier than having her as an employee. Think of the gazillion people there employed as call center reps for American companies - they're all non-ci…

I've been in favor of saving hooters since the Spotted Owl controversy of the '80s.

If they lived in our neck of the woods, the little girl would outlive the Petkovs.

Generally speaking, there should be some advantages to being exempt, as part of the trade-off. They're giving up OT... are they gaining flexibility in their hours, for example? If not, then you may be okay within the law but you're laying the grou…

My friends are absolutely shocked that I have never seen Mad Men. Well, I hadn't watched 30 Rock until last season, so there's still hope, I guess.

It's been many years since I worked for a company that employed a lot of PRN employees... But generally speaking, those employees - primarily nurses - worked at least as many hours as our regular fulltime staff.

Schools are facing a similar dilemma with those rubber "Save the Boobies" bracelets. Many schools have banned them, but have been taken to task for doing so.

Thanks Nae. It's easier to comment on other people's work than to blog on my own, though. I'll settle for publicly applauding the folks here on their efforts. I did agree to blog for one of our trade associations about a year ago. It took six d…

I Google them pretty indiscriminately... no pun intended. If the search gives me a link - whether it's Facebook, LinkedIn, the county jail records, or a newspaper story about their unabiding love for Justin Bieber - I'm checking it out. There have…

It's a simple formula: X < Y+Z where X represents the time in a day, Y is the time needed for mission-critical tasks, and Z is the time needed for distributing, collecting, and following up on forms that serve no purpose. I refer to this fo…

We stopped completing a form for that about two years ago. I include the fact in new hire orientation and in our open enrollment meetings, and let it go at that.
-
As far as I know, you can. You just probably need to be careful about what you have those folks doing and when they're doing it. You're probably also going to want to talk to you work comp carrier.

Your FMLA cert should include a date when the condition qualified (in the doctor's opinion). If the doctor examined the employee 9/1, for example, but didn't render an opinion until 9/15, the doctor can (and probably should) still certify the condi…

I also have Google Alerts set up, but I haven't been surprised by anything I've found. 90% of it is marketing stuff we created, of course.

I don't think I've ever worked for a company that [B]didn't[/B] have a policy against public criticism, within guidelines provided for by the CBA (on the occasions when a CBA applied). I think employers are just clarifying that they consider cybers…

We will have similar language in our policy.

Love the term!

It's not so much the surgery, but the recovery that dictates FMLA. I would think this probably qualifies.
