We have close to 200 employees and I also review every appriasal PRIOR to the supervisor sit down session with the employee. 99.9% of the appraisals are OK - it's the .01 that we all have to worry about.

I'd first start by handling the issue as a performance issue. Is he performing the quantity of work that is expected of him in this position? In that way, you can open up the discussion as to what's wrong, and let the responsibility fall to this e…

Alice, you can request a handbook from the same site to use as a refernce guide. I believe it was written in the early 90's, but it's the most up to date information avaialable.

Thanks Don, I'm with you. We can easily get caught up in the blitz of media coverage. I prefer a quiet rememberance.

I would contact all of the employees in question and explain to them exactly what you explained to us - that when you recently audited your I-9's, there was some information that was missing. You can tell them that you will be personally contacting…

I only contact those applicants that I'd like to interview when it comes to responses to a bind ad. Often times, you can have several applicants who just don't meet your criteria. Since it's a blind ad, you don't need to respond. No one knows who…
