This will not affect any of my employees or future employees because our starting salaries are higher than this, but it will affect MD. The current minimum wage is $6.15 in MD.

I don't have any part time employees righ now, but in the past they were offered benefits if they worked 30 hours. Vacation/sick time was pro-rated based on the hours they worked. Our FT employees get 2 weeks (80 hours) vacation until they have bee…

I think you are right that this is more prevalent in non-profit organizations then fo-profit. I have heard of some companies allowing time off for things like this. My current company does a lot of charity/volunteer projects. The ones requiring w…

The other posters have talked about what I have done in the past - reviewed the policy and consequences with all employees. When someone still didn't listen they were terminated.

I have seen a lot of Cisco and also VoIP resumes on Dice.com lately.

I am not in Texas (I am on the East Coast) but I do IT recruiting (Systems Engineers - Microsoft, Security, Storage; Pre-sales Engineers) so here is what I do: Great success with Dice and Careerbuilder.com. I just started using Jobfox so we will se…

efeldman - what type of business are you in? If you deal with a lot of Workers Comp issues then add that as a topic - ways to reduce costs associated with accidents/injuries, getting people back to work as quickly as possible (utilizing light duty i…

Do you have a link to the brief? I would be interested in reading the entire thing as well. If the person involved didn't feel like he needed an accommodation then why was this even an issue? I guess I need to read the whole thing to better unders…

Not me either. If I could find an awesome candidate without wasting a lot of time with the staffing company then I would be happy to use the services. Unfortunately this doesn't happen that often.
-
Over the years I have used staffing services, but for the most part I do everything I can to not have to use them. In the long run, I think it is more of a headache. Some of the good things - depending on the agreement/contract you sign, most of s…

TXHRGuy - I was thinking the same thing. Take the midpoint of the two different pay rates. I had also thought about changing the pay, depending on the location, but that just seemed like more of an administrative headache then the other option.

I do think there are going to be some issues with this. On one hand I know of some people that have situations that really should be classified as a disability but have not been under the current law. On the other hand I think some of the new chan…

We haven't had the burning popcorn issue. We have had the blowing up other items and then not cleaning up the mess in the microwave. I have sent out a "let's play nice in the sandbox" email about all of us need to clean up after ourselves so that o…

What state are you in? The answer to your original question is going to be dependent on what state your organization is in. There are some states that will allow to the schedule the appointment outside of normal work hours so that this is not an i…

I would not accept that. If it is not listed as an acceptable document then you shouldn't take it. If the person can't find his/her social security card, have them go to the local SS office and apply for a new one. The SS office will give them a s…

I agree with TXHRGuy that I wouldn't release the documents without a supoena. There are a few states that do allow employees to copy their files: Alabama - public employees Alaska - current and former employees Conn - copy personnel records (but…

HRforMe - thanks for sharing that website. I like it! I have added it to my resource links!![:D]

TXHRGuy - where do you get the Employer's Legal Handbook via web that is continually updated? I have only had/seen print copies of this.
-
TXHRGuy - you said exactly what I was thinking! This is not an issue that I would let a supervisor handle. As much as we talk and train our supervisors to handle situations tactfully, it doesn't always happen. This could turn into a bad situation…

I think TXHRGuy is on the right track with his advice. We currently have monthly sales goals for each sales rep. Our commission is based on a % of the gross profit of each deal. We have a tiered system, meaning that the percent changes depending …

I agree with the other posters that the answer to your question will depend based upon the nature of the information that is provided. I know many companies (especially larger companies that have multiple locations and a corporate office) will publi…

I agree that staying clear of this is probably the best move. The only thing that comes to mind that you could ask is what are her career goals - both short term and long term to see what answer you get.
-
Ooopppss - I didn't mean to imply that comp time would be classified as vacation time. I was using vacation time as an example that some companies (where allowed by law) do not pay out for sick and vacation time that has not been used. I think that…

I agree that you should talk to a Benefit Broker. As HRforME said, it is possibe that with such a small group that they won't cover you at all or won't cover you unless 100% take the insurance. Most Benefits brokers can off individual plans. What…

But TXHRGuy, didn't we have a discussion about stuff like this a couple of months ago? If I remember correctly it was regarding the NLRB getting involved because employers were trying to limit what employees talked about? Or was it just about work…
-
I agree with the other posters that this is not a good idea. As much as you can probably learn lots of things there is just too much of a risk. This is a lawyer's field day! Also there are just certain things about my employees and what they do on…

Do you have a contact with Ceridan that I can call to get some info and pricing? Thanks!

Just under 50, mostly exempt. Servers not an issue - we are an IT company. But I do like the hosted product that you mention with Ceridan better than dealing with our own servers. Will PayChex file monthly, quarterly payroll taxes? I know you men…

We are looking at changing Payroll vendors. We were recommended Paychex by the firm that does our corporate taxes. Anyone had experience with them and would like to share info?
