This is a legitimate concern. I once had an elderly gentleman claim that the building was making him sick. He was having serious allergic reactions to mold spores; he'd had his home checked w/clean report, and the only other place was the company.…

Your are correct, and this link takes you straight to the form, which also has this information on it. [url]http://uscis.gov/graphics/formsfee/forms/files/i-9.pdf[/url]

I just love these people who claim to not be bothered by it and don't want to escalate it but find it important enough to tell someone in leadership about. Yeah right! You bet you need to act on it. I would inform the complaining employee that a…

Aside from allowing the employee to vent, I see nothing from your post that warrents any formal action on the part of the employer. It is possible he left the lid off the bottle, or at best not tightly screwed on, and the mouse got in and drowned. …

In my experience, bragging doesn't necessarily equate to truth telling.

Sounds like your trying to get "parental" based on hearsay, and even if it were not, it has nothing to do with your company. It is his car, he's responsible, and you simply say you had no first hand knowledge of any inappropriate activities, if it …

Without getting into what probably should have/could have been done differently, I think that your GM is probably very aware of his wife's "quirks", and probably secretly knows how she is or can be. He is obligated by marriage to rise to her defens…

They were probably just being curious and showing off for their audience. I would fix it so they couldn't access the sites anymore (which you have done), but I would also have a little meeting explaining they've been caught, how disappointed you ar…

never had one refuse to give blood before either. Don't think you can force her to do that either. I would still just have her sign a document that says she refused and move on. Needle sticks are common place and nurses are aware of the risks. I…

I don't read that the nurse refused to submit to the blood withdrawal, but from further treatment for HIV/Hep exposure. Treatment can be painful and does have adverse side affects (nausea, migraines, etc.) Again, the nurse may refuse the treatment;…

I've required that the nurse sign an attestation that he/she is aware of the treatment recommendation and with full knowledge, voluntarily refuses the recommended treatment. Then promptly filed it in the work comp file. You cannot force anyone to …

You cannot use it as the "sole" discriminator of an employment decision. Besides, people screw up and make stupid mistakes and shouldn't have it held against them forever. There may be extenuating circumstances. Maybe he was in the wrong place at…

I agree.

It is a protected activity under the NLRA in a union environment. Private secor employers are discouraged from these types of policies for that reason, but there are no laws prohibiting it that I am aware of. Our employee Handbook simply states th…

Contact your local American Heart Association and Cancer Society offices. They have all kinds of free information and programs they can help you with. They'll even come in and do free smoking cessation programs.

I would outline the expectations (i.e. here's the start time and you are expected to be on the job on time); then outline the outcomes (i.e. if you continue to report to work late, we will pursue formal discipline up to and including termination of …

First, check your city ordinance for smoking in public buildings. Second, if you're self-funded, you can carve your plan to have a higher premium for smokers, but I would avoid "disciminating" coverage because they are smokers.

Retest today. While I'm not suggesting your employee is using, inability to go is a common tactic used by users.

We did a survey once that clearly revealed a high level of employee dissatisfaction and the CEO, who was more intent on CYAing himself, spun the numbers statistically to show a positive morale. The employees just hee hawed and didn't bother to part…

Yes, ours expressly prohibits open-toed shoes; specifically flip flops. Not only for safety, but also in consideration of non-flip flop wearers due to the extremely irritating noise flops make!

If I have a signed release from the employee, I answer all questions honestly. If I don't, I verify dates of employment and job title only, and hit the document with a stamp that says "policy to verify dates of employment and position only. Additi…

I'd be careful. If you have a legitimate need to downsize the operation and would, in the normal course of business and decision making, elect to eliminate his position, then as a business decision you should. I wouldn't do it any other way, and I…

Wad it up in lots of TP (that's toilet paper), then carry it to the trash can usually sits near the sink or exit door and toss it.
