  • At our company we give the equity increases every 6 months, sometimes more frequently depending on how low they fall within the given pay range. Once they fall within the competitive range of their pay grade, the equity increases stop.
  • Tell him to apply for unemployment. An employer is not prohibited from releasing an employee of their duties when they give a 2 week notice. Nor is an employer obligated to pay out the two week notice if they decide to let the employee go when the…
  • Another route to try may by to publish the names of the people and the amounts that are delinquent in the local newspapers. You know, shame them into paying. There are plenty of government agencies in the area where I live that publish the names a…
  • Have they ever paid? If they have, was it with a check? In finance generally all checks that are received are photocopied prior to depositing. So if this guy has paid previously by check, and the check was copied, you would have a good chance of …
  • Our company pays the diference between the employees pay and military pay for 1 year. All benefits remain in force during the leave time.
  • I would not take the work of the "grapevine" to be 100% accurate. I would investigate to be sure that he is guilty of the accusation prior to termination. I work for a non-union shop and we do have supervisors/foremen that attend these types of se…
  • You also have to take into consideration company size. Are the employees that are leaving going to larger companies? The company that I work for is a very large company, We hire Engineers, Product Managers and so on from some of the smaller compan…
  • I stayed for about a year. There was no way that the company was ever going to fire me, that I was sure of. The policy was biased and was targeted towards the women, it was wrong how the company enforced it. The funny thing about it, I was never …
  • It is perfectly legal as long as the verbiage is non discriminatory and applied equally to both males and females. I once worked for a company that had a policy stating that they reserved the right to inspect all purses, packages, parcels and perso…

  • Christmas Eve, Thursday, December 23rd Christmas Day, Friday, December 24th New Year's Day, Monday January 3rd We do not cross years when observing holidays
  • They most certainly are lost wages. The employee obviously took vacation for to ensure that he be paid for the day he missed due to the accident. Now let's say the employee has planned vacation to TimBuckToo and will be gone for 1 week, but only ha…
  • We have corporate american express cards for employees. Billing is set up so that statements are sent directly to the employees home, the employee is responsible for all charges, any business expendatures are reimbursed to the employee upon submiss…
  • We have toilet seat covers in our restrooms for the women that prefer not to have their "butt cheeks" touch the seat.
  • What? He wants to go visit them? Tell him to provide his employees (at his expense) with cell phones and pay them to keep the phone on at all times. That's why I have a P.O. Box. It's not my employers business where I live. If my employer needs…

  • I don't understand your post. You write the facility will be closed for one week vacation between December 22nd and January 2nd ... if the the facility is closed beginning 12/22 how can the last day worked be 12/24? All in all, my repsonse to yo…
  • Good Luck Tracy .... Yes, this indeed is as good as a suspense novel!
  • We have no written policy. We allow nepotism as long as there is no direct supersory relationship. The only time a spouse had to be let go is when one of our VP's was promoted to President of the company, his wife had to resign. Other than that w…
  • For employees that are required to travel, we set them up with a corporate american express card. The more charges on the card, the bigger the cash rebate we get from Am Ex. The employee is billed directly from Am Ex and submits expense reports fo…
  • Tell him to wear a hairnet ... end of problem! If you truly want to avoid the "heart to heart" make all employees that are around the food be required to wear a hairnet, then no one feels singled out.

  • We do not charge for copies. The turn around is one week. I do not honor requests from any one other than the employee or x-employee. If the employee is currently employed by us, we take a verbal request. If it's an x-employee, the request must …
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 08-11-03 AT 08:07AM (CST)[/font][p]One day turn around? Wow. It must be nice to be in the position to drop what you are doing and jump through the hoops at the demands of former and/or current employee…
  • LFernandes, let me ask you this: Does your integrity lacking boss record all of the hours above 8 that he works? If he doesn't, do you react as strongly to that as you have to his taking time off without recording it? Heck, throughout the year I …

  • LindaS .... Here's the memo that I posted for my employees. It worked quite well. Please be advised that PAYDAY is scheduled every other Friday. Whenever payday falls on a holiday, you will be paid on the regularly scheduled day before the holid…
  • I put a stop to employees demands that I must jump through the hoops they hold up for me. First of all, I discussed the Constructive Receipt Laws with my boss and explained the potential financial liabilty for releaseing checks early. It was actua…
