IF you have a job he is otherwise qualified for, AND you know he would have been your first choice (likely since he has experience there), then based on the documentation he brought in I would send the job description to his doctor. Let the applica…

There is evidence that there is more harm than the obvious when we have a lack of civility. [url]http://www.legalworkplace.com/long-arm-of-rudeness-sb.aspx[/url] A spirited debate is a great thing, when you are in a place appropriate for debate. W…

You might also remind them that it is not necessarily taking advantage when you exercise your rights (I have seen managers who think it is). Remind them that if they were in her position they would appreciate the same benefits. Finally, I would te…

I listened for awhile, Plynn, after you posted here. However, as much as I like them I was ready for a change a few hours later. I actually heard a song I didn't recognize! Imagine that!

Thank you! Our first 5 grandkids are between the ages of 15 and 19. Then we had a break and the oldest of the next set is 6. Of course, we cheated a bit. My hubby is 9 years older and 2 of our daughters (and 3 of the grandkids) are from his firs…

Thank you Beth. My grand-daughter did fine, but I was a bit worried because her momma was in the room with her almost the entire time and SHE is 11 weeks pregnant herself. The good part was that I could give her some relief and replace her occassi…

Looks like you were on your own. If it makes you feel better, I put in a full day Saturday. With no one else here it was intense work time. Saturday night my daughter called to tell me my grand-daughter might be in labor. We were at the hospital…

Did the employee say something like, "Oh by the way..." Or did they come to their supervisor and say, "I need to report to you that..."? It might help you determine how best to approach this issue. If the employee is already aware that there migh…

I think it depends on your plan. I know of a group who decided on a self-funded plan and wrote it poorly. They allowed pregnancy, no waiting period, and no pre-existing conditions. Plus, they offerred it cheap. It was a pretty large company and…

Companies stopped giving references after some widely publicized case where the employee won big for the disclosures by the employer. Then it got blown out of proportion, and now companies don't want to risk it. If, and when, someone sues and lose…
-
I agree that if you have an employee that you let go because of bizarre behavior that you need to note it in the file and let reference callers know. You just need to be careful about what you say.

Kansas has laws to protect employers from lawsuits provided they give good faith answers. However, I follow the policy that was instated before I started doing HR. I will confirm hire and term dates, position held, and money paid. I can't offer a…

Do you know this for a fact? Has it been investigated? Or is it rumor and speculation? First you need to investigate. If you find your manager is really guilty of these things, then you should look to your procedures and policies. Do you allow …

It sounds like you just have new ownership, but the company itself did not end business. If that is the case, I would think a new owner can make any changes they want, just like the previous owner can. Employees did not actually lose their jobs, o…
-
Is the new owner actually buying the company, so becoming liable for all of its contracts, debts, etc.? Or, is it an asset purchase and they have agreed to hire the old employees? You probably need to speak to a lawyer to be sure you are in compli…

Last year when I lost my mom we took a break one day (from sorting her things) and went hiking. We did our best to enjoy the beauty of the Sierra Mountains, and yes, we laughed a few times. We really needed the break from the grief. I don't know …

I doubt if we will have to do that. We will no longer see library tapes on desks or in open storage areas, and employees will be unlikely to turn off what they are listening to when we stop to ask a question. Fortunatelly, for the most part our em…

That was so typical Frank the Pantless that I was surprised Paul didn't realize it. I think he is a little more stressed these days.

1) The employer should ALWAYS do a thorough and complete investigation before taking action. IF the employer did so in this case, I would have to believe they found enough evidence to contradict the employee's claim that she was there to treat her …

Books. Music is fine, as long as it is not loud enough to disturb others.

[SIZE="7"]YES![/SIZE] But we love you anyway.

[QUOTE=joannie;717537]Unless, of course, you have the right hairdresser, plastic surgeon and lots of money.:D[/QUOTE] Yes, but the truth is still out there...somewhere.

Uh..Beth? You forgot to wait for the promises. But being HR people we are sensitive and won't point out that you are obviously wei..uh..different.

You first must really look at each policy position. People who are arguing for one point of view must present logical business reasons for their line of thinking. You must also consider morale, budget, and other issues. Then make a call. It is a…

1. Here, it is the [B]company[/B], not the department, that determines policy regarding sick pay. Each department's needs is taken into consideration when the policy is set, but then everyone follows the policy. I would suggest you look at the com…

Congratulations, Paul! Happy 40th!

It's funny you mentioned housekeeping staff, Paul. When I was discussing this with the supervisor I said I guess I could mop a floor, or do most anything else that was mostly physical and repetitive, and still listen to a book. I could never do so…
-
Finding the books was a big shock to me, as is the idea that anyone would allow it. But I got some similar responses here so that is why I asked. I don't understand how anyone can listen to, and follow, a story and still keep their mind on their w…

Wow, Plynn! What a great idea! (hands clapping smiley face) From now on, when someone wants to get hired here I will ask for a termination letter and note from the old employer. ::pb&J::

You can do it, Frank! I know you can. Just put those pants on (temporarily) and go out there and do it! Do it! DO IT!!!! **==
