JodySD: Your post reads to me like you have some employees who have falsified a company document and if your employee handbook is properly written you will have no problem with an immediate dismissal for providing false information. Once the indiv…

TD: I agree, you must pay the ees: however, as I always post, get HR out of the discipline arena. Discipline is for #1 MANAGERS/SUPERVISORS OF THE EEs doing wrong, unless of course one of your ees is in the group. The keeper of the program is HR;…

DEBBIE: In my 28 years of HR practice I have been on both and neither. I personally prefer the subjective approach with the owners. I have realized an annual bonus over the last three years of $2, 4, and 5,ooo.oo dollars and this year was a bad ye…

SHJUDD: Dandy Don has it right; for your consideration, we establish a seperate FMLA file outside of the medical files. We only have drug testing and medical excuses for our other employees in the medical alphabetical files. Now, with the excepti…

bergpj: Your are right this is a "doozie"! What does your company policy tell you about how to handle this situation? (you don't have to answer these questions, just a thought for your consideration.) If a procedure does not exsist in written for…

(NO DOCUMENTATION) This is where I sense you missed the boat. Documentation is the KEY to opening one's brain to let the knowledge and expected behaviors to become reality. Personal talks and social intercourse only allow the individual to continu…

Company Policy....Company Policy....Company Policy read it and act, accordingly. Now unless the rebel flag is in my department I believe I would refer the issue to your counterpart manager. Do not get into the middle of a "cat fight" unless you are…

"WHOA"....I advise that you go the COBRA route! Your ee/serviceman/person is fully covered by military medicine and his direct family is also covered by CHAMPUS which is far superior to your coverage. You will be waisting premium paid on their beh…

Dandy Don: With 1693 post, one must always look to the HR "with a lot to say or says a lot"; "where do you find the time for all this out pouring of intellect"? OH, I GOT IT, YOU DON'T HAVE TO RECRUIT NEW CANDIDATES DON'T COME AND NO ONE GOES!!! U…

Probably: you should go to your unit contract & company policy and see how you handle this concern. USERRA is written to protect both the company and the employee. Bottom line is the ee/soldier is treated as if he is omni-present and whatever …

slasall: I, like "Dandy Don" do not really understand "pay to stay" offer. If Don is right, then my 28 years of HR work tells me to ask your boss. Where were we yesterday with the increase or letter of offer before you knew about the offer. It i…

Pmaher: It reads as if you have already suggested this course of action! The only savings you would save is the "one day of expense" to support the salaried employee, including the perks and operating cost of the perks. It sounds like your company…

Njjel: I for one would jump at the opportunity to show good will and acceptance of the smaller merged company personnel. You would be correct to count the time served in the other company. Put your self in their shoes and the smaller company merg…

Employ: I highly recommend you inform the new supervisor that he must build a specific plan to accomplish his mission and goals. Once he/she identifies the people resources required, and I don't mean the faces, then HR will become involved to assis…

CINDY: I for one would never terminate anyone unless I was the appointed investigating officer with the power to terminate, if the results of the investigation warranted that action. Training /HR personnel are not normally located within the chain…

TEECEE: That is some strong words of advice! I am in an at will state and have faced several charges and protected the actions of the company very well because I was able to stand behind Policy and handbooks. It appears that maybe you should sit …

Even though your company does not come under the Federal rules under FMLA if you choose to set your company policy to fit the guidlines of the FMLA you can not go wrong. We, likewise, have the opportunity to fore go the rules of a federal law, but …
