There is a sample one in the subscribers area of this site. Go to HR Tools and forms.

I'm curious what year was this Act? For those in personnel and records; confidentiality of information has always been a consideration. I guess sometimes we forget others might not see it as that basic.

I agree with SMace. Why would would an exempt person not have flexibility in their job? Exempt positions have more flexibility than part time. Essentially a part timer is giving up a lot in benefits and salary just to get that same flexibility as…

Or only 25% make more than the ee does. Just another way to understand it.

Great, Thanks

I'm not sure COBRA applies at all. Are you using the right term? He is eligible for benefits on Oct 1, the same day he is deployed. You aren't terming his benefits (which is when COBRA would apply) You do have a choice of letting the employee co…

BAD BAD BAD Experience. My boss won't even let them come back in to pitch their product. She said they screwed them twice!.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-16-05 AT 02:27PM (CST)[/font][br][br]I don't get that from reading it. It says the employer can not usa a doctor that they already use on a regular basis. "employer may not reularly contract with or…

I found it. 29CFR 825.307 An employer may require ....second opinion at the employer's expense. ....The employer is permitted to designate the health care provider, but the selected provider may not be employed on a regular basis by the employe…
-
You can require a second opinion but remember, you can't send her to one of your doctors. It has to be an independent third party doctor. Try looking up second opinions on the forum.

We would count the absence towards FMLA whether or not they returned the paperwork. We would notify them that it counts as FMLA. The job is protected under FMLA whether or not they return the paperwork, so you might as well start the 12 week calen…

I think COBRA rules allow for reduction in work hours as an qualifying event for COBRA. There are also provisions for non payment of premiums from your carrier, right? What has your carrier told you?
-
Thanks for the info. I'm not necessarily trying to figure out is he can return to work but whether he is even injured in the first place. Maybe that's what the ee was trying to say - that he is definately injured but return to work is pending. Ma…

OK, marc and SMace I have a question. What if the ee has a heart attack and has accumulated 600(+) hours sick leave and doesn't "ask", "apply" "return the medical certification" or otherwise want to use FML. What do you do?
-
Of course I am going to ask: Why can't the baby teeth just be pulled (as opposed to surgery) to allow room for the permanent teeth? That is exactly what happened to one of my kids. I guess dentists are now crossing the dark side along with doctor…
-
I'd say yes Sonny. Even though lunch hour itself is not covered - it is the same as arriving and leaving for work. If you fall on the way in to work or when leaving - it should be covered.
-
Well, I realize that states have WC laws but Congress and others still, decided a long time ago that states still had to come up with WC policies and that WC IS A RIGHT NOT A BENEFIT. And stupidity is still covered!
-
All of my previous training says that breaks are indeed covered for WC. A break is paid time and therefore the company is liable. The best phrase I heard from a DOL person is that stupidity is covered under WC. In other words even if the accident…
-
OOPS I wanted to add that you are very insightful and smart!
-
Thank you Julia and Stilldazed! You have renewed my faith. I agree 100% I think the issue is work performance and not attendance. As with ANY kind illness or reason an ee is sick.
-
Seeeeeee, Don, You just proved my point!!!!People just don't seem to take allergies seriously. Hence the discrimination. x:'( No, I'm not necessarily upset about it. And yes I can still go on living getting plenty of sleep at night too. (unless of…

By everyone thinking right off the bat that you aren't really sick and are abusing sick leave!! Growing up - hay fever type allergies - not as much was known about it. I was constantly blowing my nose - it was either blow my nose or let the mucus e…

I would like to give you all one person's perspective on sinus infections and allergies. I have been discriminated against all my life because of allergies. There are many times when my eyes become painfully swollen, irritated and itchy. I don't …

Thanks for all of your responses. The ee's request will probably be approved. THe consensus of everyone seems to be to approve it and also have the doctor certify it as necessary. Thanks again.

O come on, it was not a sarcastic response. It is a scenario/possibility that you have to face. TN HR should not be faulted for a sense of humor or a creative way of getting his point accross.

I say Yes and No! She is learning the hard way, that just because the overpayment was brought to their attention does not release her of any obligation to pay it back. Should not have spent the $(don't know if she did do that, just supposing) beca…

Yes, I did understand that you were not making moral judgement and you are not advocating it, but, I still say you were using logic to arrive at a conclusion of it not being illegal and therefore legal. Wouldn't you want to find out for sure if it…
-
I don't quite follow your logic Don. Yes, it's horrible to extort money from an ee but still Legal? This seams very similar to me to the farms/orchards who use migrant labor to make them pay for shoes, water, clothing/uniforms, tools, and whatever…

Did he get a job after leaving you all? He would have rights to that job. I don't see how unemployment is covered by USERRA?
