  • Using someone else's prescription is illegal so follow your policy. If your policy is zero tolerance then I would say goodbye to this EE. If you have ever taken the 2 or 3 strikes then your out stand, then you might want to consider that appr…
  • I would find out from the facility that takes the specimen, which Lab they use for testing. Then contact that Lab and ask for "Partner" companies in Columbus.
  • I would take the approach that I need to be thankful that I have upper management that is concerned enough to want a legal opinion. There have been numerous posts on this forum concerning policies or lack thereof or a total disregard by senior exec…
  • Could not have said it better myself!! Agree 100%
  • Is it going to be fresh or canned spinach???????
  • NancyJ, Welcome to the forum. You will find as you scan the posts and the responses that you will be overwhelmed with advice, some very good and some not quite as good. Here is a little tidbit of advice that I have for you. I think you will find …
  • We ask our supervisors/managers to document on the original warning that the EE read the warning but refused to sign. We also require that another supervisor or member of Mgmt be a witness and sign the refusal statement.

  • Thanks for the info. The product really sounds good in their brochure but you never know.
  • Well, I had not heard that there was a tropical depression off the coast of Florida but it would appear there is one and the next Hurricane may be called Nicole. As HS in NJ said, it makes no difference who you are, where your from or how many pos…
  • Don D- My initial response when approached by our quality team was exactly as you stated. This pertains to our current EEs. However, a "pre-implementation" UL auditor advised that any applicant must be able to fulfill the essential duties and res…
  • The new ISO standards (6.2) include HR and relates to competencies of all personnel performing duties which affect quality. We are in the process of writing procedures concerning the competency of applicants. We are taking the minimum skills requi…
  • PM, You may want to post this question in another section of the Forum that gets a little more viewing. I would say that you would need to have a written policy stipulating when you will begin to pay mileage, such as any out of town BUSINESS trip o…
  • Sometimes Bud Light and or Jack Daniels works well too!!!!!
  • First of all, Welcome to the best forum on the net. (James and Annie you can send the check to....) You mentioned sending memos to managers in your post. Why can't they take on the babysitting of their reports and allow you to concentrate on your …

  • I can't speak with first hand knowledge since most of our training is conducted by supervisors or management. However, I have a contact that has been a training coordinator for a large manufacturing company and he just advised that his trainers ave…
  • Thanks for re-enforcing my opinion and giving me some ammo to present. We do have all the obligatory verbage on our acknowledgement page but some of our management staff don't think it is a big deal to get the EEs to sign another one. Again, thank…
  • 350 EEs - We have a "Payroll Dept." 2 EEs, that not only does payroll but also handles all benefits. We also use the Mas90 system and have found it very reliable and user friendly.
  • Depending on who or what (Agency or Governing Body) is conducting this audit would determine as to whether I would allow the Personnel files to be audited or not. Unless there is a definite need, I would have to politely say NO. Now if it is DOL o…

  • Yes there have been times when challenges have come up and we do meet them head to head. However, I try to make it a learning experience for everyone and not a do it or else. I feel by being hands off and allowing my supervisors to do what they ar…
  • First of all Dynamite, welcome to the best HR forum on the Net. You will find this to be a very informative venue and you will benefit from a wealth of knowledge. You also need to know that at times there will be totally different points of views …

  • We have been ISO certified since 93 and do have a Quality Team in place. I will E-mail you the job descriptions. It is great that you are involved in the process. We are going through the new certification right now and Sec. 6.2 has been included…

  • I too Scottorr would like to know if they gave you a specific reg#. Unless this is something special for your great Empire State, I don't believe you even have to give a lunch break let alone dictate when it is taken. I know of numerous manufactur…

  • Just make sure that you have the appropriate posters where "APPLICANTS" may also see them. Some posters such as the 5-in-1 are required to be posted so employees and applicants may view.
  • My adamant stance on being excorted comes from a former place of employment where we averaged 2-3 out of 18-20 randoms coming back as being tainted. There was a GNC store on the way. Once we started escorting we had a few positives for the first few…
