If both garnishments have been court-ordered what was stopping you from deducting both at the same time? Chari

Dutch2~ The son of our company receptionist, a 16-year old- was caught by police smoking on the sidewalk. The boy's parents had to go to juvenile court with him during a work day, and the judge sentenced the boy to a fine of $160 - to be earned by …

Does the orders for child support and/ or garnishments allow the Employer to deduct $ XXX for each time payment is made ? If so, make those deductions. Keep the salary/wage review issue separate from all of this - give the employee the normal rais…

Beagle~ WOW! Is there a State / Federal law with a statute of limitations on how far back such allegations can go ? Does company Policy have a requirement for immediate reporting of harrassment? Employee says she just sucked it in for two years ,…

Suggestion: tell the employee in writing that he will get a salary review after three months in the new location; AND that because the ex-manager's promise was not in writing the company cannot honor it. Hope your policy requires all pay changes to…

Close the bathrooms. And put portable toilets outside in the parking lot. At least that will get the stink away from the building. Chari

Let me add my two cents worth: Not all the illegals that we see here in our neighborhoods are poor , some are well to do in their own homelands. They come on visitor or whatever visas and don't return home. What they say is very telling: Originally,…

Is this employee one valuable enough to the company to keep him/her ? If so, fine. If not - say goodbye. Chari

Any action re facial hair has to keep in mind that both males and females must be treated equally. What are you going to do if someone complains about a feminine "moustache"? - which may not look good to a customer. Chari

Try a spreadsheet with all three options, and present it to the union to make a choice. Some of the other posters are certainly aware of the big supermarket strike over health care here in Southern California - escalating health care costs are the b…

Hunter1~ Golly, how much does the 100/300 cost you personally in your state? I know for sure, that there is no way I could afford that kind of coverage in this high cost state of California. So if the company/organization requires the higher coverag…

The problem with just passing it on, is that first- a lot of bill collectors right out identify themselves as such right away without our asking , and second -if bill collectors knew that we would pass along every message, they would be calling zil…
-
And after such notice, if the collector continues to call - tell the employee to file a complaint on-line/or by mail with the Federal Trade Commission. Chari

Yes,definitely would had gone into HR way back when, would have finished my degree back home, instead of waiting so long to do it here in the States. So after graduating here, I got my first HR job in 1994. Chari

For not being authorized to work in the United States. Three hundred arrests. And the msn.com story states that Wal-Mart executives knew that these people were illegal. Lots of heads are going to roll at Wal-Mart in this public relations fiasco. C…

Ray has it right! An HR pro is invaluable in keeping morale up. Many of the factory employees come to me with all sorts of problems that occur: insurance disagreements, 401k questions, on the spot safety issues, workers comp snafus, state disability…

Tell the owner this: By the time the end of the supervisor's six month contract rolls around, everyone else will either have quit or have been fired. And only the owner and this jerk of a supervisor will be left. Ask the owner if this scenario is wh…
-
Devil's Advocate here : We of course are assuming that the offensive T-shirts are written in English. Now, what if another employee had come in with a T-shirt saying the same offensive words in some distant language ? Now, suppose that only the emp…

Welcome to the FORUM! I know your feeling. When I arrived here at my employer , they threw everything at me that I had never done before - purchasing, receiving , insurance, finance , layoffs ( on my first day !) - and ALSO had an owner micromanag…

Pork, that is what I call "starting from the ground up" , shoveling manure and wiping sow butt ! Actually, $ 26000 is pretty good wages for doing that. Chari
-
Don't forget about your vendors, too. The wife of our main supplier, used to come in even during the time she had cancer and chemo. I remember when she would come in , having lost all her hair. Finally, she was too sick to come in and was sent to th…
-
What exactly did the employee complain to OSHA about ? If I remmeber correctly, you had a prior thread saying that the GM ignored wiring in water in the cafeteria ( coreect me if I am wrong ) and that you had brought it to their attention. I hope yo…
-
I think I asked the question before on another thread, and with the answers - still believe that the heads of HMOs and hospitals don't have a clue as to why rates go up..it is just a "pass along the costs, whatever they are !" mentality, there is N…

Somewhere down the line : After this man is fired, do you have to accurately respond when another company is seeking a reference and asking you to state very particularly why this man was let go? Chari
-
And since the embattled Governor of California just signed into law a bill allowing illegal aliens to have driver's licenses, does this form of ID become suspect? Chari
-
Don~ "Coverage non-availability" - what kind of proof are you asking for? And I would hope HR is not going to make/keep copies of all those licenses,birth certificates ! And gosh, who interviewed an employee who only knows an unknown language? Ch…

1. Workers Comp costs ROCKETING outta sight. 2. "Safety for Dummies" 3. Rising, no ...SOARING costs of Healthcare. Ouch! Chari

Employee relations could sink like a lead balloon over this. Once, over twenty years ago, I worked for a hotel. There was a theft of a sizeable amount of money. So the powers that be decided to do polygraph tests on all employees - with no advance …

Let me get this straight - you mean to tell us you think that people who come here to work temporarily should not have to pay taxes on income or social security ? Do you treat your US- resident temporary workers like this? Please tell us what part o…

Even if you don't have yet the funds for new bathroom, at least get a portable - and separate the men from the ladies ! Chari
