  • Ours are very similar and generally not worth the paper they're printed on. We do have one department that has a new system though. The manager in that dept. has taken the job descriptions for his different positions and translated those directly …
    in Evaluation Forms Comment by Craig July 2001
  • Thanks for the responses. Non-exempt it will be (if the position is ever finally approved).
    in HR Asst status Comment by Craig July 2001
  • If their work injury meets FMLA definitions, then definitely start their FMLA clock as soon as possible. I believe other states may be different, but in PA there is no work comp requirement to hold a job for a person, so you can terminate after FMLA…

    in FMLA & Workman's Compensation Comment by Craig May 2001
  • For a person to be eligble for FMLA, they have to be an active employee. Sounds to me like this person quit, citing stress as the reason and 2 weeks later wanted to apply for FMLA leave. Anyone that walks out and doesn't contact you for 2 weeks has …

  • How about the group of employees that presented our president a "proposal" to give Friday, July 6th off in celebration of July 4th b/c the 4th is on a Wednesday this year. never mind that 99% of our customers, suppliers &rest of country will be…

  • We're in PA. She was approved for UC b/c she quit for a "good reason" which "fell through for reasons which were not the claimant's fault." I'm also looking for input on whether or not to appeal this decision. I believe I will, if only to dig fac…
    in voluntary quit & workers comp Comment by Craig June 2001
  • The ability to communicate effectively can and should be a requirement for many types of jobs. The question is whether someone's accent prevents them from communicating effectively for the particular job. If your talking about sales or telemarketi…

  • There are special rules when children work for a family-owned business that may allow you to work around general age restrictions. Of course, they vary from state to state so check with local DOL or state specific info source.
    in volunteer - child labor Comment by Craig June 2001
  • Sure the real reason should be given. Preferably before discharge to give the accused a chance to respond. Unless the manager was 100% sure & could convince me of the same, I wouldn't give the OK to discharge without talking to the employee.
    in Termination for stealing Comment by Craig May 2001
  • I agree wholeheartedly with the prior post. Plus, a majority of the artbitrators I have seen come from either a union or academic background. Not the types that are generally "pro-business." I had this discussion with an attorney last week & …
    in non union arbitration Comment by Craig May 2001
  • Assuming you're in the casino/gambling business do what others in the industry do: no on leaves the room until all money is accounted for. That would probably serve as a great deterrent to would-be thieves.
