Yes, Larry, I have. I never thought of it until I read your post. I have noticed a disproportionate number of former convicts who think it is still about them against the "system". Now, the "system" is the employer. Also, again, limited experienc…

How old is she and what are her demographics? I would strongly encourage you to offer a severance along with a release and covenant not to sue and agreement not to reemploy. Otherwise, go to plan B and stand-by for the process servers to hand deli…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 02-16-06 AT 01:55PM (CST)[/font][br][br]I disagree with Larry. He was absolutely truthful with you. Your application simply did not ask enough. If it were me, I would fire him. Four years ago is not …

I agree with everyone. BlueTooth ear pieces, etc, are no different than 1970-style headphones. You have the right to prohibit their use inside your facility. I'm waiting for the day they invent a suppository-style blue-tooth enabled phone. That'…

Do as others have mentioned. Treat this just as any other hire. You can be a Filipino national, not be a US citizen and not have a green card, yet still be here legally. It can happen. Saw it in the Army all the time.

Pork, you may want to revise your post to indicate that YOU don't count separations under 90 days in your formula. Most people do. Matter of fact, I would argue this is probably the single most critical attrition level you want to capture simply be…

Spreadsheet? Terms/active employees %

The outfit we use provides us with a highly secure locked cabinet with a slot. They come on their scheduled day, we insert our key, they insert theirs (a la safety deposit box), remove the liner with documents to shred, step outside to their shredi…

"Thanks for the response, Pork, I will forward this on to the VP......." I hope you enjoyed your current employer. I wish you luck on your job search.

Yes, I have had something similar. It is an obvious conflict, breach of trust and an absolute liability to your company. As pOrK would say: SOMETHING STINKS IN DA HOG HOUSE AND IT LOOKS LIKE MANURE! Stop the practice immediately. You have a ton…

Are you asking about the actual supervision or more along the lines of the administration piece? I'll give you my thoughts on the latter since, IMO, if you haven't nailed down the earlier, you shouldn't even be considering this. You may start with…

Sure you can, as long as you ask all candidates the same question.

You're right. I'm not suggesting that you can't. All I am saying is that you won't. There used to be others from your neck of the woods, but they left when we had the mass exodus after Don's departure. Most of them are still members here but th…

NJIEL, You're not going to get anything meaningful out of surveying this forum. Look at where the posters whom have opined are from! If I'm not mistaken, you're in Chery Hill, right? HUGE difference!

Pay for performance. Enough said.

"As for a policy, I would "officially" discourage teachers from babysitting but stop short of forbidding it." Then it's worthless Paul. Try defending that twisted rationale in court. A second year law student would shred you.

You can absolutely forbid it in the same manner that you might forbid, say, a salesperson from entering into an after-hours business venture with a client. I make this suggestion, of course, under the guise that we're not into touchy-feely, gee-wh…

I would recomend a policy forbidding the practice period. Unfortunately, there is way too much exposure should some horrific event were to take place. Ultimately, Plaintiff's counsel will pin the tail on you and allege negkigent entrustment or som…

Hogwash, hogwash, hogwash. I'll give you the 30-minute HR Manager's solution to this debacle: Bring the kiddies in to a room, without accussing anyone, reiterate the need for all to work in harmony. Tell them that recently you have observed a lac…

Wrong Geno. Anyone who claimed EXEMPT on a 2005 (or earlier) MUST update a 2006 form regardless if they have any changes. On a side note, I have the latest 2006 Forms W-4 (English and Spanish version) available on my site's forms resource center…

I think you're going about this backwards. Make the job offer contingent upon the ability to obtain a CDL. It is an essential function/requirement of the job. Don't allow yourself to get bogged down in the quagmire of of making employment offers …

There are only two ways that I know of to police this: 1-Require over-glass eye protection for all prescription lens wearers. Stand-alone ANSI approved glasses alone will not be allowed. Then it is easy to spot check compliance. 2-Allow EE's to …

Smace nailed it! At the end of the day, while we would all like to be compassioante and offer the world to our valued employees, you, and I'm quoting you, "ultimately...have a business to run and keep profitable". That's your answer. We (those of …

No, Ray, it could not be equated to doing a background search. You're totally convoluting the issue here. First of all, background searches are accepted practice, governed by the FCRA amongst other laws. Second, the information you are receiving …

We agree in that once private information is posted online it is no longer private. No arguments there. However, and this is the big however, this does not translate into HR practitioners demanding that blog information be revealed so that we may …

There is a distinct difference between information that we may have about a candidate which would lead us to base a hiring decision on and blatantly encroaching upon someone's private life. The original question/comment was about specifically askin…

Yes, and you might also want to know what's in the glove box of his VW, the year and circumstances under which he lost his virginity and especially his personal views on masturbation. You can never be too careful when you're prying into people's pri…

"Would you want to see an applicant's personal blog before hiring them?" Not unless it was somehow relevant to the job. Perhaps if it was a self-designed, self-hosted piece of work and I was considering them for some sort of technical or even arti…

Hey Paul, surely the same brilliant mind that crafted the original message and it's asinine assumptions can come-up with something more relevant to share than your flippant and arrogant 'good night'.
