It sounds like an unnecessarily complicated alternative to sticking to your salary ranges.

When I have an opening, I run the ad, list it on our website, and have the listing linked to an online application specifically for that position. I not only don't accept anything else, I warn people in the ad that I won't accept anything else. That…

Where did you buy that? The STOCK MARKET ? hahahahahahaha!

Not in this state. Even if there were a reporting requirement, it would probably fall on the testing lab, not you.

I sometimes use it as an opportunity to send out a mass e-mail reminding employees of a specific policy. Internally, that eventually becomes code for "I had to correct one of your co-workers for this... I'm not saying who it was, but you can probab…

Deposit growth is good, loan growth is good, but we have about 40% fewer teller transactions than we had five years ago. I told our AVP Member Services the next new hire we get for this branch (located in the admin center) needs to be capable of ru…

Once you deviate from the actual FMLA requirements and grant a leave of absence (as you are legally allowed to do), you enter the land of "What Will I Do With The Next Exception Request?" I think most Forumites know I am relatively comfortable wi…

We have that issue too. I tell each Branch Manager (and the VP) the same thing... If you want to complain that you don't get enough days off, you can't in the next breath ask to borrow an employee because a teller called out sick. Every one of our b…

I grew up on a farm, and a lot of my childhood friends are in farming now. I can't believe how many of them play Farmville. I can't imagine going home and spending hours every night on a game called "Personnelville".

Sharon - I'd like an 'advance' copy too. I have only a few days left to finish our policy, and I'm trying to get as much input as possible.

I have only one Muslim employee currently, and haven't heard of any issues. At my previous employer, I had many Muslim employees, and everything seemed to go fine. I didn't even hear any issues after putting the training room on 'permanent reserve'…

I understand the rationale, but my point was that I don't believe the rationale has ever borne fruit. We have enough real headaches in HR without inventing more. This isn't an issue that really affects me, since I don't even accept resumes... jus…

Writing race-based (for example) comments on the app is completely different than accepting a photo. Can anyone provide me of an example of a verdict against an employer for allowing an applicant to submit a photo with his/her resume?
-
I understand where you're coming from, Dutch, but I look at it a bit differently (as I often do...): You would see the person before they were selected anyway, assuming you interview in person. So what's the diff?
-
HP's position is interesting... that Hurd can't possibly do his job without violating a confidentiality agreement. They're not alleging any violations - yet - simply predicting them and asking the court to side with the crystal ball. If HP is succ…

John Phillips has this post (including a video) on his blog... Maybe this will help. [URL]http://www.wordonemploymentlaw.com/2010/09/todays-tough-choices/[/URL]

Your comment is more tactful than the one I posted on their blog.

Here's an interesting take... [URL]http://www.bnet.com/blog/tribal/the-two-things-obama-needs-to-say-to-business/153?promo=713&tag=nl.e713[/URL]

That's why I did it. I'm glad you enjoy it, though.

Tony, that's one of the reasons I don't watch American Idol. I haven't seen a contestant on there who would be anything better than average as a Nashville Cat. There's so much world-class talent in that town, it's probably easy to take it for grant…

I completely agree with your post, Coffee... but I hope that doesn't mean I can't mock you anyway! O:)
-
I always tip buskers... whether they play well or not, they deserve kudos for having the heart to try. Now mimes, on the other hand... I usually just make exaggerated motions pretending to drop money in the jar. I think they admire my tribute to t…

I know my 'reception' sometimes allows me access to data, but not voice. Even at that, I believe I may have texted someone directly rather than post to Facebook. Oh, heck. Who am I kidding? I probably would have just tweeted and curled up for th…

We include this line under our essential functions, but the 'expectations' are defined in our attendance policy. [B]Consistently meet Alliance expectations regarding attendance, teamwork, and attitude. [/B]

I haven't used Survey Monkey, but everyone I know who has used them loves the product and the service. I looked at a demo, and it's in my budget for 2011. However... It would be absolute overkill to use Survey Monkey for EEO info in an organiza…

I would love it if our managers called me, rather than carefully select the absolute worst solution possible and run with it. It would save me a lot of grief on Monday mornings. What is your specific objection?

Would it be possible and/or advisable to lay them off prior to Labor Day, but pay them a "bonus" the week before?
-
Woof! .

Is the vacation time in question accrued or unaccrued? If it is accrued, I would recommend a change to your FMLA policy making paid leave concurrent with FMLA. As it is, there's nothing in the law to prevent you from paying her the vacation, wheth…

I think I've told this story before, but that never stops me... About 10 years ago, I had an employee (major PITA) refuse to sign a write-up. I patiently explained that signing it only acknowledged that the write-up was discussed, not that she ag…
