I thought it was worded oddly myself. In school we talk a lot about how everyone is on so many different committees, teams, project groups, blah, blah, blah. Plus now so many are on "virtual teams" where the members sometimes don't ever meet face …

Thanks for your thoughts everyone! I agree with many of you - it depends on what the company's definition of teamwork is and the culture, etc. Myself, I've always hated "group work" because I've had too many experiences where it has been called "t…

Aha! Very good. Thank you Irenesmsaclaims! Cinderella

I think the question is in regards to cases where some medical plans are only available in certain areas -- at least that's how I was reading it. I agree, you always have to offer it per the law (except for gr. misconduct) but am not sure if they…

I believe you still are required to offer it (send the notifications, etc.). I would consult with the carrier in regards to out of area situations. Cinderella

There are several different types of herpes, some that only infect the genitals and some that can affect the whole body. Many people who have it have no idea until symptoms start showing up (sometimes not for a long while after being infected). It…

I stumped Don!!! I can't believe it! This will never happen again...I must savor the moment x;-) Cinderella

Well said Mwild. Customer service excellence theories only works if it exists for internal as well as external customers. I'm for the compromise: we need you to cover it up during work per policy, if you break the policy we will engage in progress…

I remember back in 1990 an employee at my local music store had "Pimpin' Ain't Easy" SHAVED into the back of his HEAD. I only saw it once. The next time I went in the first word was shaved off but the last two remained. I can only figure the ER m…

Regardless if you do get her the screen, perhaps your IT department can help regarding monitoring her Internet usage. At my former company managers could see what their ee's were up to on the Internet with the click of a button. Cinderella

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 01-19-04 AT 04:07PM (CST)[/font][br][br]LV, Many of us have been involved with "discimination issues" up to and including audits from our friends at the OFCCP. It doesn't matter how many ee's you have, …

I would say no, since there is no AAP. Also, since EEOC reports don't include applicants (just employees) you're clear there too. Cinderella

I agree with Don. A lot of times companies treat consultants as "second rate employees" which is beyond me. I would go so far as to include Don's suggested statment ON the "Internal Job Posting" so internal employees and consultants know that both…

Pork, Are you talking about MS or MI? I'm confused x:-/ Cinderella

That is truely rotten. It is great that you and the other manager are giving yours to the employees who would otherwise miss out though, that is the spirit of giving right there. I once worked at a company where lunches were stolen out of the refr…

Thanks Sonny. Can't say I've seen Gillian around. I've been here, just lurking instead of posting...but lately I have some time so I figured I would say hi! Cinderella

I don't know the answer to this question. The only thing I recall ever denying COBRA for was a discharge due to proven sexual harassment. I beleive a discharge that occurred for selling marijuana at work during work hours also resulted in denying …

I know I haven't posted for awhile--been lurking though. I also know that I am an idealist....but...this is one of the things about corporate America that chaps my hide, especially as someone in HR who is supposed to be a model to ee's as well as h…

I don't know about this year, but last year was about 14% and we were happy about that b/c we heard others had it MUCH worse. Cinderella

We do background checks (credit, civil, criminal and rental history). We have about 1200 ee's nationwide. Cinderella

Our dress code is "business casual". We allow things like shorts (no shorter than 4 inches above the knee for women AND men), capri's, and jeans but not tank tops or anything with spaghetti straps. Oh, and we have a "no beach-ware" type sentence i…

A colleague of mine had one of her Welder's collectors calling all day, every day. She tried everything short of reaching through the phone and strangling the person to get them to understand the Welder worked in a shop and couldn't stop working to…

This is a toughy. You have to use your best judgement in the "weird" situations (once had a software engineer candidate that was convicted of molestation....the job wouldn't have him around kids but we still didn't hire him....). Cinderella

This is how we do things around here whether or not someone is terminated, quits, no matter their level/status/education/etc: #1 They don't. Their things are boxed up and left for them at the front desk. #2& 3 Since we prohibit personal use of …

We have a "handicap parking brigade" type group here that goes around to local businesses to scope things out. It's made up of citizens who have the power to ticket cars parked in handicap spaces without proper registration. I think it's a pretty …

I would just like to say: I am jealous! I WORK for a fitness equipment company and we don't even have an on-site gym. Cinderella

Don't you love it when candidates think they can dictate how the hiring process will go? I also love it when applicants tell me what's legal and what's illegal. Because, how would I know, I'm just in HR. Ugh!!!! The arrogance and audacity of s…

That's just my point...she doesn't have to talk about her personal situation with anyone, the boss, parents, kids, no one. She could have been abducted by aliens and implanted with ET's embryo for all anyone knows, or probably cares for that matter…

Besides the whole debate above....on another note I just want to point out that the employee's pregnancy, marital status, orientation, etc. is no one's business but her own. Not the employer, not the kids, not the kid's parents, etc. Also, many wom…
