Thanks. Do you share the policy with tellers?

You write that she throws your training back in your face by saying that nobody has complained that her actions are "unwanted." Seems like she needs more training since she didn't understand it the first time. She could parade around naked and nobod…

You might want to see if their supervisor already has one in mind. I have been in situations where the decision is already made and the testing and interviews were just a charade.

I like bare naked ladies, but not all of them.

I've always been able to keep points and miles. Seems petty to me to do otherwise, although I have been to company conferences where we did not get hotel points because they were negotiated away when the hotel conference package was arranged. For fl…

Another angle is to address the "invoice" directly to Accounts Payable at the company. Since they know I will shred it, they hope that an inexperienced accounting clerk might not check, and just send a check.

I do payroll through ADP. Payroll was moved from accounting to a newly-created HR department, because our accounting people were not keeping salary information confidential. Turns out they were also misreporting taxable income for many years. It may…

Don't give him a ride, but you had darn well better send him a card!

Sorry, but your previous resignation has been accepted. We wish you the best of luck in your future endeavours.

Don, don't take things so personally. I meant no offense, but you respond with insults. As I go through life, I always try not to take things that seriously. I have never, here or anywhere else, presented myself as an authority on HIPAA. I asked abo…

I wasn't trying to make an argument. I was explaining my previous reaction and possible overreaction to Don's post. It was meant to be amusing. You are taking it more seriously than I intended.

Don, your previous postng just hit a nerve with me because it is exactly the type of argument I expect from my bad employee. When she asks me to announce the illness to all employees she says that we always have and that I'm a "creep." I explain tha…

We are a financial institution and run credit checks on everyone. Everyone here, except me, has access to money or account info. On credit reports I have seen candidates who regularly bounce checks at the grocery store, those who fail to pay off cre…

We've had success with attachment filters, which block types of documents sent as attachments. I don't think you will ever be able to screen out objectionable text, but you can intercept pictures by blocking jpeg, gif, and other picture formats. The…

We got rid of probation and I'm glad we did. Here, not unionized, it was a term that was not defined and just used with different meanings depending on who was using it, most of them based on a union environment or school environment or just what im…

SMace, You wrote, "Your advice reminds me of someone who looks at things through a toilet paper roll." What does that mean?

Reporting procedures should be available to everyone. The company should not retaliate against those who complain. Employees should know their rights and responsibilities regarding harasssment. I agree and I don't think anyone will disagree with tha…

I think it's better to talk only to those who are acting inappropriately. It's a waste of time, and may be considered insulting, to include employees in the lecture who already know what's appropriate and already act accordingly. Include everyone …

Be sure to include any place on the property, in addition to bulletin boards, walls, and doors. We just had a case of employees taking offense to a joke that had been taped to the refrigerator. I guess that's a kind of door, but just be thorough an…

The last thing I would ever do is create another committee. We do the HR stuff because we are the experts. We know how to create policies and evaluations, and we are more capable of treating employees fairly than anyone else. If your employees thin…

You are not required to pay time and a half for working on a holiday. You could do it, to keep the troops happy, but it is not required by law. I have worked part-time at a restaurant, a bookstore, and a supermarket and none of them paid more than s…

The percentages are based on the importance of the duty rather than the time spent performing it. In general terms, 50% of the annual merit increase might be based on the duty weighted at 50%, 10% of the merit increase based on the duty weighted at …

I agree that it sounds too harsh, but I'm sure your IT manager would point out that it is his/her job to protect the system and to keep it running. Since most viruses come in via personal e-mail it is their responsibility to limit it. Since recent v…

I suggest that you not give any merit at all to the false notion that employees have some right of privacy regarding e-mail. It's done on a company computer which is part of a company network and everything on it is company property, period. Giving …

We need ssn to check bondability with our insurance carrier. Everyone here must be bonded and everyone has to provide ssn on the application.

We use a shared calendar in Outlook to notify everyone when someone will be out of the office. It works well but I have to check it from time to time because employees include too much. Instead of just writing "out" "V" or "leave at 1:30" we get mes…
