Rockie: Don't do it. I worked for an employer that had about 3000 employees and we did have a grievance procedure. The employee would put their grievance or concern in writing and give it to their department supervisor who had 5 days to reply in …

Don: I'm on the side of lunacy and insecurity. You must have had a great following like you do here at the Forum. I agree that you probably made the right decision to change companies. Zanne

Don't talk to the fiancee. It would only further violate any confidentiality that the drug screen was supposed to have. I use the terminology that the applicant didn't pass all of our "screening tools" when I have to let a supervisor know that a j…

Lisa: I'll wade in there also. Our 30, 60, and 90 day evals are a shorter version of the annual evals. I suspect some of our management spends 5 minutes on them - others (being the type of personality that they are) probably spend 2 days on the…

We are in Missouri and have a 90 day "orientation" period. The employee receives a 30, 60 and 90 day evaluation. At any given time - if they are not performing to what we consider to be the "curve", they are out of here. Our benefits start with d…

Letter. Enough said. Zanne

Parabeagle: Not to leave you out - we could call you HR Pappy. I think the HR Nana fits! Zanne

Nana AnneLa: I can wait for the Nana title. However, I saw this morning what you meant. I took my son to his grandparents to hang out for the day (We're not closed) and saw how Grandma's face lit up when she saw him. Grandparents are pretty speci…

I agree with Don. When I started in HR, I was an "assistant" and did data entry, explained benefits, researched legal stuff, and helped with payroll. I now hold the title (like WWF?) of Assistant VP of Human Resources. However, I do data entry, e…

Our management, including the executive officers, get the very same benefits as the regular employees. Always have, always will. Then again, we're an ESOP. Zanne

The large company I used to work with had a workplace violence policy that suspended the employee until he was able to attend an EAP session and the psychiatrist said he was able to return to work. (or not) That seemed to work pretty good. We had…

We will assist employees only AFTER they give us permission to see their PHI. This will be in a signed release. Sad isn't it? Zanne

The difference between a rolling 12 month and calendar year is: Calendar year: Probably easier to administer. You would count the 12 weeks allotment for employees during a Jan to Dec (or other standard 12 month period such as a fiscal year) period…

The employee doesn't have to accept or decline FMLA. You notify them that you are counting their time off against their FMLA. (presuming they qualify) Keep copies of your notification. Send/deliver it in such a way that you can track it. It's a …

Rita: Clear as mud. I agree with letting the legal process take care of it. What a pain. Zanne

Don: We'll miss you. I must admit I've looked at a few of the topics and replies to see if you had a part in either. Great luck to you! You'll love having a short commute and a non-union facility to work at. We'll look forward to seeing you on …

Update 04/08/03 We (the President and myself) met with the whole branch yesterday evening. Things were said, but I don't feel that we "solved" the problem. We now have the two younger ones only wanting a "business" relationship - don't talk to th…

04/02/03 Update Well. We had a meeting with the three (without machetes) and the complaints were of some concern - but not a serious concern. Talked with the supervisor, who did a very nice job of refuting without pointing fingers. We (the presi…

Employee Motivation. I agree with Balloonman - terminate someone and most everyone gets a little motivated. But seriously.....We are a bank system and have 14 branch locations and allow each branch to decide on how to motivate. You guessed it -…

Paula: Yes - I hate HIPAA also. The "Plan" needs to send out the HIPAA notice. We have seen that if it is a fully insured plan - then usually the insurance company (in your case BCBS)will do the HIPAA policy and notice. You will need a business …

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-06-03 AT 04:13PM (CST)[/font][p]I think that every single HR person who has logged on to this site agrees that the employee's personal information isn't to be given out. I'm thinking that the perso…

That's the way I was "brought up" in HR - but I'm now with a very small (200 employee) company that is very paternalistic.

Wow! What great quotes! Many I already know, some I copied to help me out. Here are a few of my favorites: There is never a day so bad that tomorrow couldn't be worse. The probablility of being observed is in direct proportion to the stupidity …

We are addressing our dress code right now also. We are a bank and tried to impress upon our employees that people want to see well groomed employees handling their money. To that, I have been called "old" and "out of it." (at the age of 38!) I p…
