I've dealt with that type of situation as theft from the Comapny.

This is the first visionary, change oriented, labor sympathetic NLRB leader in quite awhile.

If the dems get pounded in mid-term elections, it won't happen unless he's re-elected. No way will Congress touch that before elections after pushing health care reform.

Obama was quoted recently as saying that the democrats will get it passed. I imagine they will wait until after mid term elections.

[quote user="HRVC"]It is my understanding based on what I read regarding FLSA and the Lilly Ledbetter Act that you must pay men and women the same pay for the same type of work. My question is are you also required to pay employees doing the same t…

In this case, it's not just because hours are connected to pay, it's because the practice violates the salary basis of pay as SFbay outlined. For someone to be exempt from the overtime and minimum wage provisions of the Fair Labor Standards Act, the…

A lot depends on your location. In Texas, with a former employer, we instituted "use it or lose it" to encourage people to use their vacation time. We wanted people to take their breaks and they did. That's not legal in every state. You can forc…

You can certainly negotiate with this person but if you unilaterally make a change, they can make a wage claim against the company and you will likely lose. If the amount of money is really really big and they are unhappy in their job or with the C…

What state are you in? Perhaps someone will be able to give you chapter and verse. The law Cappy found is typical, but if we could arm you with the proper information for your own state, perhaps we could help make your life easier.

Yes, like this: Dear Owner, The policy you want me to write up regarding charging employees for viruses acquired on their computers is illegal. We can no more force them to pay IT to remove viruses from their computers than we can force them to buy…

I had an employee with a seizure disorder who did things like that. After each case, she would have absolutely zero recollection of what happened. She would have no idea how she got to where she was and was strangely dismissive of any discussion of…

Although I was just having a little fun there, keep in mind that food=compensation. After a certain point, for most people, cash compensation is less important than other forms of compensation (like snacks and bottled water), which is nice since it…

[quote user="Chicago1"]I think the examples you cited were on slightly different issues than the narrow exception for major charity solicitation (when a no solicitation policy is in place), which I think is a pretty long-standing exception. But, I …
