We handle it pretty much as Don suggested...as long as we don't SEE it...and there's not obvious use of company equipment and no one is complaining about work not getting done... we have enough to manage without going out and looking for it. EE's k…

My room-mate from college works in the publishing industry in NYC....this is how she was hired and how she does her final interviews. She said that the first one or two was really difficult....but I guess there are rules to this game....you don't o…

Do you have some kind of document signed by the school and/or parents letting them know the scope of the student's responsibility, your expectations and what they can expect from you? If so, this might be a great place to insert a bit of language t…

The other option...if you don't want to ask him directly, or just want to verify his story, is to ask your attorney to seach the legal filings in the area where he worked. Most lawsuits are public material and can be accessed by anyone, you don't n…

OK...no smokers, drinkers, overweight people (how are we defining that, anyway?), we should also eliminate those that have children...THAT would represent a HUGE savings to the company in health insurance as well as increased performance (less time …

If you have a policy stating that ee's are to be working for a set number of hours per day...and he's failing to do that...it doesn't matter if he's in the bathroom or walking around the block. Begin the disciplinary process...I have some superviso…

We also hired a consulting group to conduct our surveys. This took the emotion OUT of reading and deciphering the responses. Additionally, such firms are trained to ask questions that really get the answers you're seeking. The way a question is pose…
-
I would also encourage you to check with your attorney....people filing bankruptcy are protected. It is unlawful to discharge someone for filing a personal bankruptcy. If you can come up with some other good reason, so be it...but you cannot discha…

I would also be aware that you are creating quite a job for the person in charge of THE KEY. It may seem like a simple and non-time consuming task, but I think you'll find otherwise. Just be prepared and allocate work as needed.
-
There are many guidelines available on the web...but you also want to check your state regulations...some states are very specific about how long certain records are retained. There are also consulting firms that can assist companies in determining…

This IS for our in-house counsel!!!!
-
was the embarrassment something that was a violation of actualy policy...do you have some kind of behavior that can be redirected? How have similar situations in the past been handled? or are you just looking for an exit door?

She was probably violating her school's dress code too. All of our local highschools ban open toe shoes/sandles
-
an internal transfer here requires that both areas work together to determine a reasonable date for work wrap-up and transfer. Generally, this goes smoothly and the area losing the ee is happy for the success; however, we do have areas that engage i…

We devised a cross training method, more due to turnover than retirement, but it works just the same. Everyone will need to be replaced at some point in time and it's easier if at least one other person in the company knows and understands what othe…
-
We offer a fairly liberal LOA policy...we give up to 6 months at the dept. head's discretion...based on workload, how the dept. will function with the extended absence of this person... we've learned that it's better to be flexible with our ee's li…
-
Unless there is some specific state statute...I don't know that is the case. It's about expectation of privacy...if your email /internet use policy advises EE's that they have no such expectation...you should be fine.... might be worth running by …

I would also not, at this point anyway, suggest to the employee that he take a shorter vacation. It sounds like it's regularly scheduled, planned with plenty of notice to all involved, yearly event. If there is no written policy precluding him from…
-
Our policy also includes language regarding a "pattern" of absence. This way, even if an employee does not meet the definition of leave abuse...a pattern of calling off or scheduling off every Friday is actionable.
-
I won't say ours is GREAT but it's not bad. The foundation is that you must be nominated from outside your immediate work area. This was created to get the ee's to work and play well with each other. In addition to nominating an individual, a team …
-
We look at felonies in a similar way...how does the crime relate to the job description? How long ago was it? Do we have a string of convictions or a one-time thing? Our application also states that a conviction does not necessarily preclude employ…
-
If an employee is in need of handicapped parking at work, they must fill out a form with our security dept. A copy of the card supporting the handicapped sticker/flag on the car is made. This does not give a diagnosis or reason for the parking need…

we've brought "skillpath" on-site...and sent some ee's to the seminars...they are usually helpful, if you can get past the overly perky personalities of the trainers!!!
-
We have an on-site fitness center...it's been in operation for nearly 7 years....so far, so good! We do have ee's sign a waiver and we bring in a personal trainer each quarter to assist ee's in developing a routine and learning the equipment.
-
ours is the same way.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-26-04 AT 10:30AM (CST)[/font][br][br]Yes, I was fortunate to be able to adjust my start time...and I'm not saying that everyone has that ability...but sometimes, you just have to choose your battles i…

The issue of tardiness has come up many times on the Forum..and for those of us that have no problem being where we need to be on-time, it's nearly impossible to understand how someone CANNOT be on-time. I agree with the above post that if this per…
-
I agree...many meetings turn into "venting" sessions...it might be helpful to explore how the meetings are run and see if there is a way to improve. The guy still has to go...but if you can make it a better use of everyone's time..why not? One of o…

You may wish to have this ee sign a paper authorizing staff to give her an insulin shot when needed. This may not be complete protection from liability, but at least you'll have some kind of documentation that you were doing what you believed to be …

That's easy enough to handle!!!! Thank you!!!
