Generally, an employer does not have to provide a voluntary benefit to an employee who doesn't meet the Company's published qualifications or who does not follow the Company's reasonable process for approval.It sounds like the small not for profit l…

If the change is permanent or "long term", you need to change status. BC/BS told me a few years ago "long term" meant more than a month.

Let's step back a sec. How do you know she stole her EE file? If you know she did that, why didn't you just fire her?

[quote user="new2hr"]Thanks for the info. The 90 day thing is just that they were hired as temps and would not be eligible for perm. employment until 90 days. They were all given written statements regarding "employment at will" What we ended up d…

Things to think about: What is the nature of the work environment? What do they do and what is the physical context in which they do it?

[quote user="cjus10200"] Group 1 - Here is an example: Employee makes 15.00/hr M-F 40 hours whether or not he actually does any work. I guess this could be viewed as on-call time. He is free to do anything he wants during this time, as long as h…

Whatever else happens, they need to make 1.5x minimum wage for all OT work and no less than minimum wage for all ST work. Let's say that someone in group 1, whose pay plan strikes me as odd, worked 50 hours in a week. Would their total pay be (40xM…

[quote user="StatsDaz"] I seem to have digressed however this topic does bring me back to the point that if a high performing employee has alternative preferences to blogging does this effect the engagement of said employee? [/quote] It depends …

The first thing you need to know about is the Fair Credit Reporting Act. I'm not certain if FCRA comes into play if the source of your report comes from the Sheriff. On the other hand, if your report comes from the Sheriff, you will probably not b…

A gpood background check vendor wille educate you on many or all of the things you need to know. However, the first issue is how you will comply with FCRA. You have to ask permission to do the background check in advance.

I don't think Georgia is a state in which Vacation time is considered to be earned compensation. However, based on some other things I read, it looks to me like you must pay what has been accrued in Georgia to your continuing, active employees but …

What state are you in? Are you certain you can eliminate saccrued PTO time without paying it?

[quote user="kprefontaine"] Please help, I am finding the information confusing on what, as a private employer, we must give as state or national holidays. There are so many listed but not all lists are the same. What are we required to close fo…

A general policy about acting in the company's best interests and avoiding the appearance of a conflict will handle most things but sometimes people want to address this more directly with specific language if they're having a particular problem. It…

[quote user="mbaker01"] There is no employment law or privacy issue to keep the new manager from reviewing the files of the employees he manages. [/quote] I agree that there is no specific law barring this but I disagree with the inference that it…

There could be an issue here if the employee is salaried and the employee would not have been required to work on that holiday. You can't fail to pay a salaried worker for an absence due to lack of work caused by the employer if such absence is for …

[quote user="hkb1944"]We are a non-profit, private, Christian university. The Athletics Director that we hired recently requested that he only be paid $12,000/year. That's less than minimum wage. Is this legal? Do I need his request in writing? S…

I think Ceridian's product is better than ADP's and they are certainly lower cost. Ceridian includes significant HRIS functionality that ADP does not. That being said, don't focus only on the amount of money saved. Make sure you also look at how…

Ummm, I think there may be a state-by-state issue here based on whether the person was hired on a temporary basis or not. In any event, if they only work a short time, it won't hit your account. If it's just a vindictive desire to see nobody get u…
