• Another question. While the ee is on WC, do you send the letter notifying them that FMLA has expired and ask of their intentions to return to work?

• Thanks for your thoughts! I was more concerned about DOL than CBA violations on this one. My "assistant" actually works in Business Licensing. Is that a problem?

  in Breach of Confidentiality? Comment by Nevada HR August 2008
• It didn't make sense to me either, but wanted to check with you gurus. Thanks for your answers! The assistant's JD does include the "other duties as assigned" language. I will make him locate the section of FMLA law that he says I'm violating.

• And polar neck wraps. You soak them in water till they swell, then tie them around your neck. It helps us keep cool in Death Valley...but then, it's a dry heat.

• My understanding is that alcoholism is only protected under ADA if the employee is abstaining. Relapses (or the fallout) are not covered.

  in 56 Hour ee Comment by Nevada HR November 2007
• If FMLA is exhausted, we send the ee's job description to the doctor to determine whether the ee can perform the essential functions, with or without reasonable accommodation. I'm in Nevada, though. Has your ee requested and been granted extension…

• Thanks for the info!

  in New I-9 Form Comment by Nevada HR February 2009
• Our policy states that if ee's dr. and company's dr. reports conflict, we pay for a third opinion. That may not help if dr's opinion is based on ee's answers rather than medical proof. EE can always change his story. Don't know if that helps....

• In response to Nae, the employee called off sick for the two shifts following the alleged incident, but prior to his arrest, so we can't definitively say he misused sick leave. Yesterday was his first no-call-no-show. To Paul...yes, we can ask the…

• Sorry about the rant...I really am looking for help. Can you see a workable solution that I'm missing? Thanks!

  in Employee Arrest Comment by Nevada HR August 2008
• To date, the employee is still in jail and we have taken no action regarding his employment. We're not in a position to investigate because we don't know who the party is that filed charges. We have limited information, but it sounds like he met t…
