I guess I just find it interesting, as most of you do, often working late hours or even on weekends to interview candidates that it is much of an issue. I have been fortunate in my last few employers that when I need to go to the doctor, or my kids…

Don is right, and ADA only requires you to make a reasonable accomodation for disabilities. Guess what, being pregnant does not count. It is a temporary condition. Put her out on FMLA, and go from there. If she is early in her pregnancy, she and…

If he has been repeatedly warned, and this is documented why would you not terminate this individual? Can't be a good employee if you are not there. Let him go, or with the next write up set and expectation of what is unexceptable, more than 1 ab…

Your knowledge that he is a hazard operating the vehicle actually exposes your company to significant liability in the event he has an accident. Lots of 000,000's Fire him now. UI does not matter, and you may get lucky. Make the reason for disc…

Hell yes it's Miller Time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey in reality a very tricky situation, and handled well. You cannot let her blow up at someone without any recourse. She will be cool when she learns why the GM is no longer there...........and she w…

Beagle, so sorry to rain on your parade, but the mystery has not been completely resolved. WHY did the GM resign, what was the real reason? Any tips on the computer? Just curious, although I have to admit, like how everything else turned out. I…

Ditto, must work the day before and after unless an approved day off. We also require them to be here for 90 days. My $0.02 worth. DJ The Balloonman

I would file a report with the police, and send here a certified letter letting her know that the next time she comes on the property she will be arrested for tresspassing. My $0.02 worth. DJ The Balloonman

You found her sleeping on the job. Fire her. End of discussion, save the holiday pay. My $0.02 worth. DJ The Balloonman

Your adjuster is correct that you have to file a claim. There is nothing that says the insurance company cannot deny the claim. Submit the claim, have them take a recorded statement from the individual so you can learn the details of the claim the…

I would go look at his computer, internet and email usage. If it is all deleted see what your IS folks can dig up. Did the GM sign any type of non compete? This might be a convienent way of quitting to avoid the question of who is he going to wor…

Man is tonight going to be Miller Time or what?! My thoughts, are I don't see how you could have handled it much differently. The GM is being unreasonable, my take. Discipline should be on a case by case basis. I would be comfortable with either…

I don't know about proper consent forms, but I would call my contact at the hospital. Assuming you use them for occupation injuries, they probably have someone in charge. I would explain that you are none to happy and if this consent form was an …

I would have already gotten rid of her. However since she is falsifying company documents, I would terminate her for that. My $0.02 worth. DJ The Balloonman

Uh what about finishing the investigation, seeing if you can get the person who breached the confidentiality agreement about the downsizing to begin with to acknowedge that.....then fire them. My $0.02 worth. DJ The Balloonman

I disagree Pork. SO someone comes to my house, instigates the fight and after getting hit 3-4 times I say enough, defend myself and you are going to fire me? Personally I would not let it get to that, if a hostile employee showed up at my house I…

I hope in the write up of the supervisors you make it clear if they ever do it again they will be terminated. Make it crystal clear. My $0.02 worth. DJ The Balloonman

If you work in retail it is not an unreasonable thing to be required to work on holidays. I would go the volunteer route first, then if more employees are need by seniority. Most stores near me post the notice a few weeks in advance announcing shor…

While, you may not wish to terminate, how can you employ an outside sales person who can no longer drive? Just creating an inside job is not a reasonable accomodation in my mind. If she no calls no shows based on your policy you can easily end he…

I hope the suit gets thrown out. I am so tired of illegals suing for anything!!!! I am not a huge fan of Wal-Mart, however this gets old. My $0.02 worth. DJ The Balloonman

You may have discovered rather quickly that you hired someone who is not a fit within your organization. When you sit her down to let her know this is how our company is, if she still has issues, let her go right then and there, you will save yours…

She better learn to adapt to the culture and be called Sylvia. I would not do anything different. If she says I prefer to be called Minister Sylvia after you call her Sylvia I would respond with "You are not a Minister while you are here" My $0.02…

Don't bag on the manager to bad, lets face it this position is supposed to work weekends. WHile a bit abrupt if this had been a situation that accomodation may have been appropriate it could have been an issue. I would sit down with the employee …

Good luck you are going to need it. Does your contract specify the type of health insurance? If not and they are not willing to bend, just replace the cream of the crop with a more standard plan with co-pays and deductibles and tell them to go fcu…

I have bad news for you jscheidter, You have a workplace full of drug users/abusers. Trust me the druggies know what companies will or will not tolerate those things............ You need to convince the hire ups that they need a clean workplace..…
