We have no Executives at our bank, but our President/CEO does have a Cabinet that reports directly to him, these are referred to as our Sr. Management Team. The Cabinet is made up of 1 Ex. VP, 4 Sr. VP's, and 2 VP's (the VP's are our CFO and Dir. o…

Us bankers gotta stick together. Absolutely,Speak Up! There are time when much can reach a decision and then there are times such as this when you shot first and can ask questions afterwards, if necessary. Good Luck, Dutch2

I agree with the above. We too have had AA's reporting to another AA but their titles were different. Seems we once had a "Lead AA" which was still hourly also, but had some input on the evaluations and scheduling but primalry due to more experien…

Amen..... If only they were based on the "Facts" and not the opinion of the referee, judge, etc. My experience is if you can't back up your story with hard documentation concerning why the ee was dismissed due to mis-conduct, failure to follow poli…

Might I ask, what did you see that caused you to reason that something was not right? Was it just your usual back ground check or did something stand out and say this is not right? Also did you do all the checking on your own or did you use an out…

I have just completed a Compliance Review by the DOL. It took nearly 2 years to finally get this baby put to bed. It seems that because I complete the annula EEO1 report every year, that is required by law, this put us in the box for a "random" se…

Do you have anything in your Employee Handbook or other policies/regulations regarding an employee having possession of or under the influence of a controlled substance while on company property? Dutch2

Our app. is similar: "Are you legally eligible for employmnet in this country?" With a box to check Yes or No. Good Luck, Dutch2

Ditto, we too were once this way. Basically all anyone had to do was go visit their Sr. Management Team Supervisor and he/she would give some of them, but not all, anything they wanted. We finally got this stopped by stating that only the President…

We require our employees to work their full "scheduled day" the day before and the day after the holiday in order to receive holiday pay. The key is "scheduled" if they are not scheduled to work those days, such as on vacation, we pay them holiday …

We too state in our policy that bereavement pay is to "attend the funeral" of a family member and we go so far as to spell out which family members, basically one limb of the family tree. We allow up to three days off with pay if travel time is re…

Thank you all for your counsel. I was unable to find any materials that indicated Missouri had any laws protecting gays/homosexuals and I had to make sure. As always and once again, the Employer's Forum comes to the rescue. Thank you, Dutch2

I must agree with the above, it was the clerks job to check ID before making the sell. However, my questions is; are their any laws pretaining to once the under age kids have the cigarettes and are standing around outside the 7-11 after school smok…

A quick question... if you call an ambulance for an employee, who pays for it? Does if fall under the employees insurance policy? The reason I bring it up is that we had a Branch Manager call 911 because he thought one of our employees was having …

Just thought I would go ahead and ask: But..... will you have someone say a prayer before the dinner at your company sponsored "event(s)"? We always do (unless the MC forgets) and best I can remember, here in the bible belt of the mid-West the pra…

How far are we going to go trying to please everyone all the time and bending over backwards to never offend anyone for any reason?!? Before anyone gets on their high horse, I do understand that this can be "what if'ed" to death and if the circumst…

I do believe that you just hit the nail smack-dap on the head. If something appeared out of line in regards to AAP, as the employer, we still have the right to hire the most qualified person for the job regardless of their gender, race, etc... If n…

I suggest that you go to the trouble and some expense of doing it right the first time. I work at a bank and therefore we must have an AAP. We have had one for years, updated as needed and it has always cleared any and all exams and/or reviews tha…

Sorry, I bleive we allow more than you. Our policy states, "...more than five occurrences (not consecutive days) within any twelve month period is considered excessive and is grounds for disciplinary action up to and including termindation." For e…

We are non-union. We also take the stance that if the employee refuses to sign, we get the supervisor's supervisor to set in on the second round and we repeat the whole session. If they refuse to sign the second time, we have the two manangment per…

We too are a bank, only with approx. 125 employees in six sepearate facilities. We figure time cards the old fashion way, by hand and a calculator. This takes my assistant at least a full day each week. She probably spends as much time following …

I also am in MO and there is no problem to hire without first running a help wanted ad for most business. As someone mentioned above, State agencies, some private colleges, etc., must run an ad before they can fill the position permanently. I am i…

We also have eliminated the Probation Period and gone to an Orientation period lasting 90 days. The new EE is reviewed at 45 days and at 90 days. If the new EE is meeting the requirements of the job they recieve an increase in pay with the 90 day …

We allow our sick time to be used for anyone in the immediate family,living in the same household and parents of the EE(in-laws included). This has proven very helpful for us. I once worked for a company that allowed sick time for the EE only and …
-
We too are in a Right to Work State, but... we have a progressive discipline program and we use it. Of course we make it very clear that depending on the severity of the opportunity the first step may be termination of employmnet. If someone is cau…

I too am in banking and we have four pay scales, 1.Teller rainee, 2.Teller, 3. Sr. Teller, and 4. Lead Teller. We also have branches in very small rural communities and in a larger city (75,000)and the pay scale is the same for all. I agree with t…

We instruct the Supervisors to give every EE a copy of their evaluation.
-
We also have not had a COL in years. Any incrases we give are based on merit and are determined by the ratings on each EE's evaluation. This year is the least amount in severaly years... only 2% to 2.5% for most everyone.
-
We also have a policy of no personal emails and it is the responsibility of our Network Administator first thing each morning to scan through all the emails that this place generates to see if anyone is sending personal emails. I have had the oppor…

Guess I had best jump on this band wagon also. I usually get very good information from our insurance provider, but this new HIPPA stuff seems to be lagging behind. Thank you, Dutch email: [email]doug.webster@callawaybank.com[/email]
