  • Thanks so much for the reassurance. I was mostly concerned that she would come back and accuse us of discrimination of some kind. It is precisely because we hire so many internationals that we scrutinize their documents carefully.
    in I-9 fiasco, anything to do except pray? Comment by HR in Okla December 2002
  • Thanks for your reply. I believe the receipt is acceptable for the I-9, providing they bring in the actual card as soon as received. That's what muddied the waters.
    in I-9 fiasco, anything to do except pray? Comment by HR in Okla December 2002
  • Alice, I have another I-9 question posted that has generated a bit of discussion. In trying to be clear on a very confusing subject, I have researched the INS website. They have a very helpful section that will give you a lot of good information. …

  • I'm appropriately chastised. You are right. My own daughter is raising her husband's niece who has lived with her mother in another country for all her young life, but is a US citizen by birth. Thanks.
    in A new I-9 question Comment by HR in Okla August 2002
  • Thanks, Debra. But what is so confusing, if not contradictory, is that the employer information on the INS website tells you that as long as the documents are current at the time of hiring, you are NOT required to keep up with expiring documents. …
    in A new I-9 question Comment by HR in Okla August 2002
  • While reseaching the info. everyone has offered, and auditing my I-9 files, I have a question now on reverifying documents in Section 3. According to employer info on INS website, as long as an alien's documents are not expired when they are hired,…
    in A new I-9 question Comment by HR in Okla August 2002
  • Debra, THANKS so much for the accurate info. I need one point of clarification. If they have a SS card that does NOT specify it requires INS authorization, would that indicate they are legal to hire? Does the SS card they get for working on campu…

  • Lori, we do check the Social Security records a lot of the time, especially if we have any reason to wonder about it. With the IRS cracking down on the requirement for payroll and social security records to match, we are asking for SS cards for pay…
    in A new I-9 question Comment by HR in Okla August 2002
  • We maintain a multi-section file with new hire paperwork, pay change forms, evaluations, reprimands, training records etc. in it. Then we have a manila folder kept behind the main file for "confidential" records. The main things in it are medical,…
    in What do your personnel files look like? Comment by HR in Okla March 2002
  • Thanks for the quick response, but my question applied to current employees, not terminated ones. I may be trying to read something into the handbook that isn't there, I went through some material on Records compliance and it said "audit your I-9s …
    in A New Twist on I-9's Comment by HR in Okla March 2002
  • I would like to interject another twist. I want to be sure I understand the INS handbook I have: Can we dispose of I-9s on current employees who have been employed longer than 3 years? The material says "Retain the Form I-9 for 3 years after the …

  • It's been a moot point so far, he hasn't been able to work at all. He's been tied up 12 hours a day at the airport. Thanks for your input.
    in Military Leave Comment by HR in Okla October 2001
  • Thanks, I had thought of both options, but wasn't sure it was okay to go back and forth between exempt and non-emempt for the same position and person.
    in Military Leave Comment by HR in Okla October 2001
  • I have a related question: With National Guard and Reserve troops now guarding our airports...what about the dedicated employee who wants to continue his job duties in the hours he is not guarding the airport? We need him! He's our new Security S…
    in Military Leave Comment by HR in Okla October 2001
  • I contacted the Okla. DOL about this issue and was informed that the Attorney General of Okla. has issued a ruling that direct deposit could not be mandated to current employees, but could be a "condition of employment" for new employees. We are in…
    in Making Direct Deposit Mandatory????? Comment by HR in Okla June 2001
  • I don't know about Georgia, but employees, both current and former, have a right to some expectation of privacy. I won't give such information to anyone without authorization from the employee.
    in Employee Records Comment by HR in Okla May 2001
  • Thanks everyone. I learned a lot from everyone's postings. Maybe I got off cheap after all. In the mediation I went to, the mediator separated us after the initial statement and there was little information presented that would have been useful t…
    in EEOC Mediation Comment by HR in Okla May 2001
  • I'd like to hear other's experiences on this. I went naively to mediation on my first EEOC charge knowing we had not discriminated. However, the former employee showed up with an attorney that neither I nor the mediator knew about. I have since lear…
