I wasn't referring to state laws. I was referring to the propsed federal law. Last I heard it did not include gender identity.
-
Keep in mind this is a gender identitiy issue and not sexual orientation. The new law coming through does not include gender identity.

I don't understand the story. Who/what is "partner"? Also what is "child C's partner"? If C's confidentiality being compromised has affected her ability to do her job, it's a huge deal. Without any other info I would hold A responsible because i…

Not that I can determine. This is from the FLSA: § 785.31 Special situations. There are some special situations where the time spent in attending lectures, training sessions and courses of instruction is not regarded as hours worked. For example, …

A director should be paid in line with other directors in the company. A director should have a level of responsibility equal to other directors. For example, if the directors are meeting to decide the direction of the company and you aren't par…

Did he pass the background check? If he is currently legal to work in the US it doesn't matter if he was illegally working for other's in the past. I would not ask him to do anything that you don't ask others to do.

If you have something to say about the content of my posts, go for it. Otherwise move on.

Q, you reminded me that I killed everyone in laser tag and bump drafted my boss into the wall. Now that I think of it, I'm not sure if they had fun, but I sure did.

I just tell jokes. I'm really funny. Really. I took my staff to Fun Depot one day for lunch. It was during school, so noone was there. we played laser tag and raced the go carts. It was great fun.

Not every job has physical requirements? I think I know what you mean, but even if the requirements are sitting, standing, typing, filing, you need to have them on the description for ADA purposes.
-
Sounds good to me. I don't deal with this directly, thank god, so my details are a bit muddy. Thanks for the clarification.
-
If I recall correctly the discussion centered on their not being a need to survey your existing workforce. We have an AAP and we did not do it.

Signed or not, the real issue lies as to whether they are really contractors. If they are not, a signature ain't gonna matter squat. Go to this link, read it very carefully and present it to your Pres and EVP. [url]http://www.irs.gov/businesses/s…

Drug Screen results would not fall under HIPAA. You need to check your state law regarding personnel files. You can also refer them to the drug testing company.

Great information. This is an issue that I'm sure a lot of companies struggle with. Particularly one's that have staffing issues. Do you keep cutting loose under 1 year ee's that are good otherwise? Especially when you have no one to replace the…

"Well my son was abducted and it took six months to find his body. The job was the furthest thing from my mind. Actually the pain from this event has not worn off in 18 months. But now I'm ready to get back into the profession and really think I …

I would be very hesitant to call. If you ask the question David suggested, be ready for the answer. She may say, "Well my mom or my son or may sister died the day before." How are you going to respond to that? If she is bothering you to the poin…

Ginger did a great job wrapping her brain around the issues. The primary issue COULD be the Pregnancy Discrimination Act which is an amendment to Title VII. Feel free to Google it. This would be an EEOC issue and they do not screw around once the…

I'm going to try to summarize. Your Pres. is going to lay-off a pregnant woman so he can continue to smoke in his office. I'm not sure I can wrap my brain around all the issues associated with that plan of action.

Check your local and state laws. Most deal with public places, but some also deal with businesses. This may be a bit of a stretch, but it may be an OSHA issue. They have a general duty clause that could come into play. Also, you said he agreed n…
-
I don't believe this is a state issue. I believe that it is a Title VII issue of disparate impact. In addition an arrest doesn't mean squat. Many people get arrested and the charges are completely dropped. What you are looking for is convictions…

Can I ask what law requires you to run background checks?
-
DO NOT REINSTATE!!!!! No way no how!

There is a lot more going on between the super and the ee than you may know. I think you have handled it well. You say you suggested anger mgmt and not mandated, right? I think you counsel the ee and let him know the consequences if this happen…

It's like shootin' fish in a barrel.

Sorry, I wasn't "talking" to you. I was talking to missk.

I guess you are asking me the question. Why shouldn't the womwan be allowed to throw it in the trash? What the hell are you talking about? If you re-read my post you'll see that I advised it should be no problem to throw away in the trash. Are…

OSHA's has defined an amount that they consider to be a biohazard. I looked real quick, but could not find it. I believe it's a tablespoon. Anyway, you could ask her to throw it in the "women's" container in the bathroom. Even if it's in the tra…
