Mel, Welcome back! I suggest that you by-pass the pleasantries and touchy-feely Kumbaya singing. Sit-down with the owner and have a frank, candid and poignant conversation with him regarding the state of the business. I doubt you'll be telling h…

I have two options that I would suggest: 1-Contact your local police department and turn the investigation over to them. 2-Hire a private investigator to do this for you. I, personally, would opt for going the private investigator route. It is o…

This is usually a non-issue for us with most terms. We simply allow employees 15 minutes, escorted, to clean out their desks. My assistant has IT disable network (including email) access during the meeting. If they had "personal" email, oh well…

1-Yes, provided he meets the legal requirements. 2-Yes, he can be fired. The law protects recovering alcoholics, once you drink (as he did) you are no longer in recovery. 3-Anything that is discriminatory. 4-No. Good luck.

WOW, EWart! Ninety-five percent participation rate is something that you and your leadership should be proud of! How'd you do it? Gene

I recall something similar to this. If I remember correctly, and I am going strictly from memory here, there was a case in Texas against SmithKline (lab) that the Texas State Supreme Court ruled in favor of the lab. I am not sure the employer was …

I agree with Don. If you want to get really technical, your application asks "Have you ever been convicted of a crime, plead guilty or no contest?". A judge may very well have ordered the diversion and subsequent dismissal without a plea. It happ…

Plant manager makes it a habit to sometimes drop by the lunch room and sit down with an ee or group of ee's. Nothing more, nothing less. I, too, share in your concern that I will hear from her again. This is why I want to make 100% certain that I…

Crout nailed it! Expecially in the last sentence! BAM!

Potential red flags that lead me to believe you have a comp issue: "Surveys are gauged at the state, west coast and business sizes" You need to also look within your locality. Statewide surveys, in my case, mean nothing. I need local data. Also…

It's tough when you have to deal with attrition over $$. Are the comp surveys you are ordering realsitic for your locale? Have you though about conducting your own wage survey? I don't think you are naive in thinking that loyalty should go beyond…

You can contact bases directly (ask for the ACAP office) where you can get in touch with the career counselors who assist separating service members, or just go the website [url]www.acap.army.mil[/url]. Another good option is to log into AMJ (Ameri…

Here in the land of 110 degree heat index (advisory on right now until tomorrow night) we need to take this very seriously. Luckily for us, 90% of our facility is refrigerated. Our main concern is with our yard jockeys, who are outside all day and …

"Are you trying to find a way to get rid of this person and using this as an excuse? This is what it sounds like to me." So, the driver suffering fatigue at the wheel of the "small, docile, non-DOT regulated" local delivery truck runs over and kill…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 07-22-05 AT 03:08PM (CST)[/font][br][br]Aside from the fact that you are terminating him for a legitimate, non-discriminatory reason, I cannot think of any. As an aside, I am willing to bet that there i…

Sure, he is granted an exception in terms of hours of service based on his radius for YOUR routes. When you factor in the added mileage and on-duty hours at night the dynamics change. You are putting yourself and your company in an indefensible po…

Can him. He is an accident waiting to happen. He is keeping two sets of logs, which will "show" that he is legal in terms of Hours of Service, however, he really is not. He is violating DOT rules. Either he cans the side job or he becomes an own…

Nope, never. Even with an agreement. Just like you cannot withold overtime even with an agreement in place or garnish wages to a level where it would fall under minimum wage.

Well, Tracy, I've been waiting for you to come back and clarify for us what it is that you are trying to accomplish. However, since you haven't, I will speculate that you are looking for a means to disseminate information by the most efficient mean…

Popeye is absolutely right about this. It seems our fine state is doing zilch to curb abuse of our already overabused systems. Now that the TennCare trough is closed for feedings there are people crawling out of the woodwork trying to find somethi…

Well, let's see. Pay close attention this time as I refuse to repeat myself. 1-FOREIGN NATIONAL comes in to apply. 2-Run them through SAVE. 3-DENY employment. Each SAVE entry automatically enters the user in a contest for the chance to get a Pres…

"WHOA was I right, this is not the forum to seek real world professional help across this nation for a real concern from this HR. James if you please un-plug this post/thread to the trash, it is not worthy of a return visit by anyone! If not the tr…

In short order, there is no distance defined in the statute. Furthermore, the law specifically excludes "outdoor areas of places of employment". You are required to communicate this to all curent and future employees. You do not need a sign. Bea…

JCinfo, let me try to get back on topic and answer your question now that you were able to provide a little more information. I will use the term "work permit" to mean one of various visas and/or a Temporary Employment Authorization. If the indivi…

C'mon pOrK! If you cannot answer the friggin' question without a tirade on SAVE then don't even bother answering at all. Nowhere in the post did I see the question about verifying anything. Give me a break. If you want to plug SAVE willy nilly, …

Are you talking about a minor with a work permit or are talking about a fOrEiGn NATIONAL with some sort of work document? Please clarify. Gene
