Yep--managers who don't like to do performance evaluations but as soon as there is a problem with one of their employees--look out! I actually had one tell me one time that the evaluation for a probationary employee was not a priority for her and i…

We are a not-for-profit in Florida (an at-will state) with 25-30 administrative staff. If you will give me your email I can send you our handbook--it's long, though. I also have a supervisor's manual that I prepared a couple of years ago and can e…

Marc-- I'm putting together a supervisor's handbook and it would be great to have that form in it. Would you mind e-mailing that form to me too? Thanks! [email]spettegrew@jaxsymphony.org[/email]

I also work for a not-for-profit. Most of our volunteers are older (have been retired a few years) and we rely on them a lot. When there is a problem with their "job performance," their supervisor either gently points out the problem, or if that d…

We did this a few years ago. It was the equivalent of two weeks' salary, spread across the remainder of the fiscal year. At the end of the fiscal year the original salary was reinstated. We had all employees sign a document stating the purpose, t…

Beagle-- Me too! Would you fax a copy to me? 904-354-9238. Thanks! And you don't have to add me to the Christmas card list....

Unfortunately, because she is the box office manager I don't see how she could take work home or work on the bus. She could spread the adjustment over the five days. I completely understand that she is being paid to do the job, not simply be here…

We are dealing with both exempt and non-exempt employees. You've given me even more food for thought and I'll wait to see what I find out from other orchestras about how they have done furloughs. I'm told they have, anyway. I'm also checking with…

Then, our department is the very unpopular "Attendance >Police x:=| ", putting forms and post-it-notes on desks advising >people to complete the paperwork. Don-- Just wanted you to know you made my day! I've been increasingly frustrat…

Would you also email your policy to me? PTO has recently come up as a discussion topic. Your policy will probably help answer some of our questions--and may generate more. My email address is: [email]spettegrew@jaxsymphony.org[/email] Thanks!

Sally Pettegrew Our union employees have language in their collective bargaining agreement allowing this. "A musician may donate, at his/her discretion, up to 10 days sick leave to another musician in need, with a limit of 50 days donated to any on…

Don: It's maternity & paternity leave.
-
I would gladly fax you what we have. It's a bit long, but it's what our attorney approved.

Our system is 5 days after six months, 10 days per year after 1 year of employment, 15 days after 5 years, and 20 days after 10 years. Sick leave is earned at 1 day per month, maxing out at 30 days.

We went to direct deposit about five years ago and everyone really likes the fact they don't have to find the time to go to the bank. We have very few employees who are not on direct deposit. The best part for the musicians in our orchestra is tha…

I agree that the situation should be covered, but then I just went through a similar scenario myself when my 16-year old suffered an eye injury at school. Once we were finished with the two-day round of doctors I was comfortable leaving him home al…

Linda S. I now need the forms you offered to email to others a couple of months ago. Would you mind sending them to me at [email]spettegrew@jaxsymphony.org[/email] Thanks!

Our practice has been to pay the COBRA coverage for the former employee. The former employee is required to submit proof each month that he has made the COBRA payment, and then we issue a check to reimburse. That way the person has to go through t…

I'm completely comfortable with having flexible schedules and have benefited for years from being able to work a flexible schedule. In February our Executive Director of 7 years was terminated and our board chair is currently also our interim ED. T…

Thank you for the responses. All of you have verified what my gut told me--that the executive board of the union can request something in writing from the counselor letting the union's executive board know that the stagehand is fit to return to wor…

We've been using Time In a Box through Paychex, for almost a year now. I really like it the program and their tech support has been fabulous. But, it appears we'll be changing the first of October because we'll change payroll companies due to issu…

I tried calling the person who sent the fax but she had gone for the day. She was to call me back today but so far, nothing. I'd sure like to pursue this and fill the position with someone with hopefully a different perspective on things.

Evan, Would you please email me a copy of that? Thank you... [email]spettegrew@jaxsymphony.org[/email]

Our staff is small enough we do a cake and cards each month. I ask the staff members whose birthday is in the month to get together to agree on a day and time convenient for them, and decide what kind of cake or if they prefer something else (muffi…
