Boy oh Boy do I wish the EE would file a claim of harrassment and bring your company to court. No offense, but if I was told to write a formal apology to a person who harrassed me continually, even after I was told by a number of people to "just ig…

I always loved using this question... Picture yourself at your retirement party. What would your co-workers and managers be saying about you and your work with the company? Pretty insightful stuff, gets the candidate to think a little more than j…

Not familiar with Great Plains. Used HR Perspectives (ADP product) fairly easy to understand (for running reports) if you have a strong computer background...pretty user friendly. We will however be switching to PeopleSoft the begining of next yea…

Our company just got into PIP (performance improvement plan). Idea is to give the employee every chance to correct their "problem", instead of a "slap on the hand" kind of verbal/written warning. A great book that we use examples from is called: …

Was an investigation done? If so, was anyone found to have stolen the money? If she is being written up for carelessness and not for the money being stolen, it could go something like this... "You are receiving this warning because on (insert dat…

What a great costume Don...I'll be first in line for the bonus please. So what great costumes have you guys seen today??? We had someone make a large sized employee badge with a cut out for their head to be put into. Very creative and funny! Oth…

Well, first thing this morning, when I walked into my building, I was greeted by the grim reaper...talk about a wake up call!! When I got to my office...a man came in dressed as a cow, udders and all! What a sight to behold. Can't wait to go ar…

Well folks, it's been decided that we'll allow people to "dress" for halloween. However, we are not running any contests or special events. Maybe next year! Thanks for all the great stories and advice on judging in contests.
-
Now there's something I wouldn't have thought of! But it makes perfect sense...noone would think twice about a person in costume on Halloween. Thanks all for your input and stories. For those of you who run contests, how do you handle the judging…

Christy, What a great idea! Guess that's why you make the big bucks! x:D Thanks for the info on how you handle the contest idea. I'd thought about doing that a few years back, but it was rejected because they said that if we don't have clear cu…

I appreciate the responses so far...Any other responses would be greatly appreciated. I'd really like to know what you all do for Halloween.

It would seem the "wrist pain" stems from how she's doing her job, vs a direct injury on the job. I would say it doesn't fall under workers comp if that is the case. If the "safe" way to do her job, to not cause injury, is to have shorter fingerna…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-11-02 AT 09:20AM (CST)[/font][p]Do you have an EAP program?? If you do, I'd refer her to them. If not, you may want to see if she needs some time away from work and grant her the leave. Sounds like…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-11-02 AT 09:02AM (CST)[/font][p]Hopefully the director will think twice before doing/saying anything that is potentially harmful again. It's called Civil Treatment...and guarding words and actions. …

If your company wants the "cheap" way out, get yourselves a digital camera. If you have MicroSoft's Photo Editor and MS Powerpoint, you can design your own badges. All you'll need then, is a lamination machine and the laminant itself. This will w…

We typically send a generic letter to ever applicant who didn't "make it". It basically states that ...it was quite apparent from the interview that you have significant experience, which will serve you well in your chosen field. After reviewing y…

Here's a good one I heard: EMPLOYMENT AD TRANSLATIONS "COMPETITIVE SALARY" We remain competitive by paying you less than our competition. "JOIN OUR FAST-PACED COMPANY" We have no time to train you. "CASUAL WORK ATMOSPHERE" We don'…

I'm afraid that vmiller may be correct. It depends on your union, but you will have to run it by your union rep. This is why we have no union employees in our world of HR / benefits / payroll. Too much conflict of interest.

> Can the manager not have a social life? > Fran, I don't think anyone is disputing the fact that a manager can't socialize with subordinates. What Terminate is feeling (no matter who thinks it's right or wrong) is valid because she's feeli…

>The whole thing seems too trivial to worry about. Well Crout (and everyone else) We all have our opinions and I'm going to restate mine... This isn't so 'trivial' if it's making memebers of a team feel slighted or 'left out'. It is a pot…
