I was also able to obtain the Gund beanbag from e-bay. I was unable to locate one anywhere else, so let me know if you find a source. Krista Denn Mpls. MN [email]kristadenn@dl-inc.com[/email]

Myth: That HR's function is to keep people from suing the company. Fact: Ain't nothing or nobody that will stop somebody from suing the company if they really want to. One of HR's many functions is to make sure that there is sufficient documentati…

We are not requiring employees to use direct deposit, we are required to make it available to them. The actual language in the contract states: "The Employer agrees to implement direct deposit for payroll checks, prior to October 1, 2002, for any e…

The HR person who was here was the contract was negotiated has left the company, and since I have taken over, I have not had time to read the entire contract. It applies to probably less than 20% of our employees. The president and CFO who were aw…

You might want to check with your state DOL to see if there is a statute on personnel file access. In MN, former employees are entitled to one copy of everything contained in their personnel files, at company expense, within one year of termination…

Sorry I am getting to this late, but maybe this will still help. Our admin bonuses are on a quaterly basis, and are tied to the company's operating ratio. Every employee has a base amount for bonus which is set based on criteria like time with t…

At my previous employer we started on the Paychex software and had nothing but trouble. I couldn't submit via modem and kept having to e-mail the file over, and they never fixed the problem. Twice payroll runs were delivered with tremendous errors,…

Section 3 above allows for deducting salary due to illness only if the employee is receiving other compensation for that day, such as disability insurance. It does not refer to a sick leave policy. For the original post, section 2 is the one that …

We are with Delaware investments, there is a $60.00 origination fee and a $30.00 annual maintenance fee. I'd think that would dissuade people from borrowing from their 401(k)s, but I keep getting more and more applications.

Our policy states that tuition reimbursement is a loan. If the EE stays for a year after course completion, the loan is forgiven, if not then it must be repaid.

We are a self insured plan and utilize a TPA as well as a reinsurer. We just had our first renewal meeting with our broker, and the proposed increases on our total fixed cost range from 69.5% to 31.2%. We could lower that if we are willing to incr…

I have been contacted by employees who have said that they contacted our 401(k) provider in order to change their address, correct a name misspelling, what have you, and they have been told that they would have to submit their changes to me, and I w…

We have two different STD carriers, one for non-union and one for union employees. Both carriers will consider a woman with a "normal" delivery, vaginal or c-section, disabled for 6 weeks. Benefits will be extended if a doctor certifies the need. …

I can't quote the exact verbage either, but I don't believe that the employee can be penalized because the company decided change plans during his/her election period. I have serious doubts about your COBRA administrator./:)
-
The president at a former employer was frequently waiving the waiting period for new hires who had medical conditions and/or couldn't afford COBRA, whatever. Our insurer did not allow it either, the president sidestepped this rule by fudging the em…

We match $.25 on the dollar up to 4% of the ee's compensation. We also offer enrollment after 30 days of employment and 100% vesting immediately.

If you're willing to do one more, I'd love a copy. My fax number is 651-631-5958. x:D Thank You! Krista

Granted, this was a few years ago, and the law could have changed, or the law could be different in your state; but, I worked for a company whose policy was that they would pay a percentage of your premium under their group policy, or they would giv…

In Minnesota, an in-house daycare facility is obligated to comply with the state requirements for either an in-home daycare provider or a large daycare provider (like a Kindercare or Children's World) depending on how many children would be involved…

Our educational assistance policy is considered a "loan program." The EE must have courses approved by the HR department prior to enrollment. After successful completion of the course, the EE submits a fee statement. The EE then signs a "loan agre…

When you have a phrase where two or more words begin with the same consonant sound it is called alliteration. (Sorry, I had a simpler answer, but then I checked the dictionary for spelling, and changed my answer to be more precise).

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 05-24-04 AT 08:24AM (CST)[/font][br][br]This is what I have found as well. Our disability carrier qualifies childbirth as 6 weeks unless there are complications, whether c-section or not. In fact, it st…

We pay the employee their regular day's pay, minus whatever government stipend they receive (usually around $25) for a maximum of 10 days.

I have never experienced the infertility issues that your EE is going through, but I can empathize having recently suffered a miscarriage. My company has been very understanding about Doctor's appointments, which makes the situation a little less st…

I've never heard that, but that doesn't necessarily mean anything. Your best bet is to check with the MN Department of Labor and Industry. [url]www.doli.state.mn.us[/url] or call at 1-800-342-5354.

Thanks everyone for your kind wishes and good advice. I agree that sooner is better than later, and so I told my boss yesterday. It wasn't really planned, but he had come into my office on an unrelated matter, and I figured, "well, he's here and t…

My estimated due date is June 23, 2004. Don't know where that puts us in terms of a race, but we could always get a baby pool going!
