Hi Everyone, Thanks for your input. The opportunity to speak to our CEO presented itself to me when he came to talk to me about something else. I used the hypothetical situation approach and asked him who should be signing the change forms. He a…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-30-02 AT 09:58AM (CST)[/font][p]The CFO is the last one on the approval process. In fact I just gave him a rating sheet where the increases are graded: outstanding between 4-5%; above average 3-4%;…

Thanks - I'll take a look.

Oh Well, just when I had a good laugh in 3 weeks it all went away. x:-( I just want to know what that last post contained before it got pulled!

I know that the Group Leader has hard feelings about it. When the GL and Mgr sat down with me to discuss the review before the Director got a hold if it, they had legitimate concerns and had worked out goals to address them. The employee is a go…

Basically the problems are that he undermined his two employees, the Manager and Group Leader (we've already heard rumblings) and completely dissolved any creditability they had with their employee. And I have an employee who thinks that everyone h…

I know, I know.... but the amount of indigestion that I've had this week has lead me to buy stock in Tums. We've only got 100 employees and 98% of the time I don't have a problem with the reviews that come in. Many times the Manager asks for our…

Thank you all for your input. Effective today (Hooray!!) we've changed our process so that HR is reviewing the evaluations prior to them going to the employee. It definately helped make my case when I was able to show that this is the way other …

Good question - when you find the answer let me know! LF

Thank you! I knew it was something like that but for the life of me couldn't remember. x:-8

Thanks - that's the one that I read. I was hoping to find out more about the type of work the assistant managers were performing or not performing as may be the case. I'd also like to find out more about the self-audit they were talking about in t…

Don, You always make me smile! x:-) Thanks!

There is that word "permanent" again!! YEEEKKK!! Employees should never be called permanent as it could be used against you in court because it implys an employee contract and that the employee has the job for "Life". In answer to your question…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-02-02 AT 07:57AM (CST)[/font][p]Pork, I noticed that you used the word "Permanent". I hope that your employee handbooks do not use that word as it could be used against you in court by implying that…

NY is an employment at will state. However, that is only as good as what will stand up in court. Have you reviewed the job description with the employee so that she understands what is expected of her. Has anyone told her that her behavior was in…

Is he through a temp agency or on your payroll? Normally "temporary" employees are hired as interim replacements to temporarily supplement the work force or to assist in the completions of a project. Employment assignments in this category are usu…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-18-02 AT 09:11AM (CST)[/font][p]I agree, I kept trying to get the whole company on a 4 day work week, especially in the summer. Who knows, maybe since it worked out so well for our manufacturing folk…

Kudos to you and your employees for reaching 617 without a Lost time accident!!! That's something to be very proud of.

With respect to Carpal Tunnel, that's a repetitive motion injury. You should do a job safety analysis to see if the jobs your employees are doing require repetitive wrist motions and working with the hands and fingers in unnatural and stressfull po…

At the beginning of the summer we decided to put our direct labor manufacturing personnel on 4-10 hour days and everyone loved it (sorry). We also put our mechanics on a flexible day schedule so that the floor was covered during the whole 10 hours …

I work in the cosmetic industry and have two words: Foundation and Cover-up! Did anyone ever hear the old wives tale about "combing them"? or an I dating myself??

After talking to management, we are trying to get satellite TV's set up in our lunch rooms (we have 2 different locations) so that our employees can watch the memorial ceremony's on TV during their breaks, lunch, etc. We are also looking to get eve…

I just read an article on this yesterday and I was going to bring this up with senior management today. In the article they mentioned bringing in TV's for folks to watch the memorial services, giving the day off since President Bush declared Septem…

I don't see a problem with it. We post internally and externally at the same time. We also have an employee referral program in place. We have gotten several great employees that way.

I only retain the hard copies for one year. But I have an applicant database that has all the basic information for the applicant; i.e.; date received, position sought, if they applied for an open position and were interviewed for that position, if…

Thanks! I'm going to stick with the one-year rule of thumb. I do, however, accept unsolicited resumes because we are a specialized manufacturing company and some of the positions we are required to fill from time to time are difficult ones to find…
-
I agree. I can't imagine trying to keep hard copy applications and resumes for 5 years AND look at them (my allergies would have a field day). I keep everything electronically in a database which I can look back on if needed. I do look back over t…
