  • Thanks everyone! They were very helpful!
  • We require annual disclosure of this type of information (plus any time during the year that they may change). If you'd like to see our form let me know and I'd be happy to email it to you. Your email is disabled in your profile or I'd send it rig…
  • Same employee shows up this morning with white beachy flip flops and tells me that they "were in the sandal section!" Flip flops do not qualify as professional business attire. Why is this not obvious?!
  • No, I meant the cotton pants. Man, this is confusing! If they look like leggings or sweatpants without the elastic on the bottom. The code states that pants, skirts, etc. must be made of a suiting material.
  • Excellent point, Q! I didn't think of that. Pull-on pants that I'm referring to have no hook and zipper closure.
  • When I talked to the employee wearing the cotton pull-on pants, she informed me that they were polyester. I almost fell off my chair. In my experience, polyester takes a gazillion years to fade. I know everyone has one, but this is the employee I…
  • I am talking to her this afternoon. I think she's dense and testing us. I also believe that she's going to tell me that pants made of a suiting material rub on her knee (she had surgery in January and is still limping, don't get me started!) and w…
  • We are a bank. The tattoos in question are not religious tattoos (child's name or flowers). The president doesn't like the image they seem to portray. I don't see the business need to cover up ankle/calf tattoos, but I think we'd open up a can of…
  • As long as you have a signed agreement (not just a blanket notice, but a specific one), you are allowed to make the deductions.
  • We have 6 paid holidays, 5 sick days (accrued at 1.25 days per quarter), 3 personal days (accrued at .75 days per quarter), and vacation as follows: 1-6 years 10 days 7-10 years 15 days 11-14 years 16 days 15-18 years 17 days 19-22 years 18…
  • New CO law? I have seen nothing on requiring copies of identifying documents. Could you point me to that?

  • I did that same conversion a few years ago and did purge all the old documents that we had. Knock on wood, we haven't had an I-9 audit. As long as your consistent, you should be fine.

  • Thanks for your response! It seems that most people are just using their Computer, Internet, and Email Policies to cover the new rule.

  • Could you be more specific? What area are you looking for?
  • Our exempts have a monthly calendar that is turned in at the end of the month/beginning of next month showing any time they were out of the office. The exempt pay period runs aproximately two weeks ahead of the non-exempt because of the way our pay…
  • Heck no, you don't have to keep him at that rate! He knew something was amiss and didn't report it. We do the same as others and correct the error over the next few checks. I'm unclear as to if you need a separate authorization for the deduction,…
  • If your handbook doesn't allow any leeway for start and end times, I'd definitely change that right away. If there is a legitimate business reason for people to start at 7 rather than 8, I don't see why there would be a problem...once your handbook…
  • I truly don't understand why he would do this. You are not paying these people for overtime anyway. You wouldn't be able to do this for non-exempts and I'm sure that all of your records show overtime and daily hours. All I can find on the DOL sit…
  • In WI you can force direct deposit, but cannot tell the employee what financial institution to go to. There are also sections in the regs saying that the account must be free to the employee.
  • Yes, it does help! Is this for TX only?
  • Dutch- I was going to email you this question, but your email is disabled. We are looking into an intern program for a network administrator. The school has told us that if we choose to pay the intern (which we will), they are not subject to worke…
  • Most banks have drive ups that are open past 4 PM. It seems a little ridiculous for an employee to ask this! They could go on their lunch.
  • We treat all Saturday exempt work as voluntary. You can't "make up" time by working Saturday.
  • If an exempt ee performs no work on a given day, it is my understanding that they do not need to be paid. I would make sure to modify your policy so that paid time must be used before unpaid time is allowed.
  • Management issued a memo apologizing for implying that employees were required to be here on Sunday afternoon to give tours of their department. Everyone is now welcome to attend, no strings attached. No one is required to be here. Thanks!
  • I think I'll put it exactly as you said it when I talk to management again. I don't really blame the employees who are giving up their Sunday afternoon to come represent their department. If they were coming just to enjoy the festivities, that wou…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-16-07 AT 12:21PM (CST)[/font][br][br]Ki- Does the employee qualify as exempt as defined under FLSA?
  • I agree with HR in VA. If you are requiring them to take the training, you must pay them for it.
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-14-07 AT 01:14PM (CST)[/font][br][br]There isn't a policy yet. Gotcha! Your policy reads that you must work 6 consecutive days to receive a bonus for the 6th day.
