[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 04-07-04 AT 02:04PM (CST)[/font][br][br]If the other issues you mentioned are solid and well documented, I would be inclined to stay away from the admitted drug use entirely. Was the admission witnessed…

I don't know if I'd want the help of a guy who's gonna take his 11 year old to Hooters. That's like the canary asking the cat to babysit, or one of those country-fried cliches.

I would opt for progressive discipline UNLESS the porn was of a nature that was illegal, such as child pornography. In that case I would investigate and if the evidence was solid I would terminate and notify the District Attorney.

But Denise, you're comparing apples to oranges. Your EE had a relatioship with that particular physician and so HIPAA would apply. As DJ pointed out, according to njjel the EE was NOT a patient and so how can HIPAA protect a private relationship w…

You might consider issuing a discipline, in addition to any training, to the manager whom asked that question just in case this becomes an EEOC issue. That way you can show that you took action when the problem arose. People in leadership roles sc…

Wasn't that 1986? That was the year Reggie started congratulating Gene Mauch and then Dave Henderson hit a double to start a rally....right? I'm working off the top of my head here, but that is such a clear memory.

No....that's Tastycakes (said through gritted teeth). And I suppose you follow the go-nowhere Giants? Or would it be the do-nothing Dodgers?

You're thinking of Jim Thorpe, Pennsylvania....formally Mauch Chunk.

Jim Thome is the guy who won the National League Home Run title last year.....minus the steroids I might add. He's the heart and soul of the Phillies.
-
Man, just twist the knife some more why don't ya. It was 32 in Philly this morning, and we gotta wait a week for the home opener. BUT the first game ever in the new ballpark was last Saturday and the first hit ever was a Jim Thome HR. I was there…

Excellent point.

Was he placed there as part of a vocational program of some sort? Lay aside the "slowness" for a second and think about how you would treat any other employee in the same boat....no documentation, but you just can't escape the fact that he can't do…

I don't recall any of my Amish relatives ever mentioning a prohibition on having their picture taken. However, I DO remember them complaining quite loudly about the rude, obnoxious tourists who had no respect for their privacy.

First investigate the charge and determine if it's true or false. Launching an investigation does not automatically mean that EE-B will be burned falsely, and you have a duty to protect the company from liability, which is the reason you make a goo…

Welcome to my world. I swear, somtimes I think our corporate motto is "Shoot, Ready, Aim" You...or someone like you...must have fought this battle before at some point. Solid HR practices don't just spring from the ground, so there has to be some…

There are no campaign protection laws that I know of, unless there are some local guidelines out there, and of course nothing coming out of California would shock me. Are you in Wisconsin? You might check your state and local laws to make sure. I…

We get a pat on the back and a heary handshake.

I don't question your credentials as a HR professional, but I do think that you would serve yourself better by modifying your condescending tone and inflammatory language. As accomplished as you are, (and trust me, I respect that) it sounds like a …

Perhaps Alcoholic Annonymous Female. But what do I know. I'm just a DPD (Dumb Pennsylvania Dutchman).

This may sound vain, but I'd like to think that I could still eat the employee victims even if they were represented.
-
"HR people eat unrepresented employee victims for lunch." I love that! It sounds like a headline. That one's going up on my quote board. Thanks, Maggie. I hope it all works out for you.

By the way, there is also no limit to the number of hours that you can require of NON-exempt employees. You just have to pay them time and a half for anything over 40 in a work week. Salaried folks are paid by the job, not by the hour. That being…

Good question. For more information, call 1-800-792-8881 or (609) 292-8112. Got this off the NJ DOL site.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-25-04 AT 01:49PM (CST)[/font][br][br]I'm wondering why the "special" offer letter is needed at all. Presumably this person will be judged on the ability to deliver the goods, which should be standard…

DOH! Since you've offered an accomodation he is now protected under ADA. I think you've just jumped out of the frying pan and into the fire with this. Good luck.

The physician called YOU and said that?!?! Man, there's no way I would allow this guy to circumvent the established practice. Follow your policy and terminate him if he exceeds the threshold and termination is what you would normally do under thos…

Wait a minute. The intermittent leave exists to facilitate continuing treatment by a health care professional for a serious illness...not to facilitate sleeping in and watching Good Morning America. For example, a cancer patient may need to take i…

> As management we have decided NOT to say anything since we allow makeup to be worn (although normally by women) but I'm not quite sure where to go with this. My little KISS example is based on this statement.
