If only it were possible, x:D .

Sorry! Didn't mean to make you (and maybe some others) feel old, . It really hasn't been that long! Now, if you were listening to Beethoven in HIS prime, you could consider yourself old . Im trying to be careful with my words here, being …

It is very dificult to find an artist or band these days where you can enjoy the entire album. My husband loves to by CD's and keep up with all types of music- he would love to be a DJ someday. I, on the other hand, prefer my trusty, dusty Simon …

Watersflo- I'll be honest - Nothing teaches like experience! April

I graduated 2 years ago with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Business. I was praying my entire senior year of college that I would fall into HR like most of you did. When looking for a job though, after graduation, I had one major problem...…

HS- Thanks, I will check it out. Maybe the lyrics will give me a clue as to why it is named the big Yellow Taxi! April

The version I have listened to was sung by a woman, but it is a popular song, so it could have been performed by many different artists. Im definately not an expert on the song though, I can't even get the words right!

I was at a Karaoke bar on Saturday and realized I had been singing the wrong words to a very popular song for some time now. My version "...you don't know what youve got till it's gone, A pink paradise, put up a parking lot" The real version "T…

I LOVE Fawlty Towers! My parents introduced me and my sister to these comedies when we were kids. My favorite line (if I had to choose just one) would be when Basil Fawlty's wife Cybil is on the phone to one of her girlfriends and keeps saying "…

I was having a bad day, but now I am smiling! Thanks!
-
Wow! I sure learned something there! I also thank you.

My thoughts: A change in the duration of leave taken is reason enough to request re-certification. Maybe I didn't understand your question... have you already asked the employee to submit recertification due to the increased number of absneces a…

The surgery has already been done, so choosing another doctor is now out of the question. Thanks, though.

Mushroom- Same situation here. We left it up to the "Managers Discretion" as to whether the time could be made up - as long as they kept track of their FMLA usage. Not all departments are capable of allowing employees to make up time.
-
I just had the exact situation today... and we decided to count time used (intermittent to go to Dr. appointments for her husband) as FMLA even though she is going to make up the time later on in the week. My reasoning: The reason she is excused t…

I asked a similar question earlier this morning about retroactive FMLA. I found this article on Ragsdale v. Wolverine World Wide, Inc. [url]http://www.binghammchale.com/Content/Publications/August LEPG newsletter.pdf[/url] If that link doesn't wo…

Here's my senario: Day 1 Employee had surgery. Employee was only supposed to be out for 2 days. Employee called off day 3 came in day 4,5 went home halfway through day 6 came in day 7, 8, half of day 9 off day 10 went to doctor. Complications from s…

It's my understanding that the employer designates FMLA leave, and the employee does not have the choice to "opt" out no matter what you policy is on pto during leave. We inform the employee after 3 days that their current leave is being counted as…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 08-14-03 AT 11:47AM (CST)[/font][p]No, that was actually really well stated. Thanks, Sonny, for pointing me in the right direction and the useful info. It seems like every FMLA case poses something new…

Thanks for your pov, sonny, It is for a mental health issue. The Fed. regulations state "clinical social worker" as a certified health care provider, is that what an LISW is? Are they clinical when they work independently? I will look up the lisce…

Here is what we are going to do: We are going to allow the employee 12 weeks total of leave for the birth of her child. We believe (after much reading of the FMLA) that offering 6 weeks of medical leave and then an additional 12 weeks is unreasona…

I agree. thanks for the help!
-
Yes, thank you. I am still not sure if this is something I want to start doing. Do you feel that it has helped your employees?
-
Paul- I struggle with the same issues you have stated earlier. In my company HR is not involved with payroll and does not have access to employee absence records either. We depend greatly on word of mouth and management notifying us of qualifying…

x:o Im shocked! How insensitive and tasteless of you, Balloonman! As a young woman on this forum I am grossly offended! x}> Now go to your cell and think about what you said!
-
Thanks, that's what I needed to know. I prepared a report for the COO and did not factor in transfers and he asked me why not. I guess it always depends on what you are looking for with the results.
-
HRQ (or anyone else )- Do you factor in employee department transfers in your total number of terminations/separations? Or because they stay with the company, do you not count them? Im confused as to what to include, as when they leave a departme…
