  • If the president, in the past, has not entertained such questions... I think a fair response would be that: The meeting today is to specifically address the company's standing (and so on) not individual salaries or titles. If your company does not…
  • we have an onsite training dept. what kind of information are you looking for?
  • Our company does a few things...first is a drive to get people to sign up...the department with the greatest percentage of donators wins the "trophy" for the year. Using the percentage system, it keeps it a bit more fair since some areas have hundre…
  • This is a huge plus for employees that travel..especially when business travel takes them to places that they would not otherwise be able to afford to go. Prior to the business card, travel was a great hardship-it meant putting off the car payment s…
  • Alcoholism is protected under the ADA. Do you have an employee assistance program to which you can refer the employee? Forget that you know about AA...that is supposed to be confidential. Take only what you can see on the surface. Bringing this to …
  • We do an excessive amount of monitoring as well. Sometimes I think this should become a portion of people's job descriptions. However, although we record information pertaining to internet use, telephone logs, and movement within the buildings, we t…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 08-20-03 AT 03:01PM (CST)[/font][p]We do background checks and provide for it right on the application...so they know it will be done. we work with the state police. we have about 2500 ee's one of the…
  • DOCUMENT DOCUMENT DOCUMENT. The laws may differ in CA...but I imagine things are pretty much the same. If you are prepared to offer some sort of written summary of her infractions...bring along those that witnessed the infraction and could testify …
  • I agree with the previous posts that in terms of personal expression--we've become hyper-sensitive. It will be like this until we can get to the middle. In the workplace tolerance levels are determined by the make up of the staff. In your case, a r…
  • I'm not sure what your company does, or if your company cars were marked with your logo, or if you are making residential calls or business calls...but: The car your employees drive will be representing your company. Depending on your business...i…
  • This is where the job becomes difficult!! We look at these situations from all possible vantage points to figure out who might be offended and why. I'm not entirely sure why he was offended by the use of the word "god"-most atheists i know don't ob…
  • This is a new part of the job description...and we do not have an employee handbook...every "policy" we have is on a different sheet of paper!!! Our EVPs have huge issues with an official policy handbook!
  • While I don't disagree that just doing your job well because it's what you are expected to do should be incentive enough, that's not always going to work... this is the model currently used in our telephone operations agrea....i'm not sure where th…
  • We offer free on-site parking to our employees; however, each employee must obtain a parking "sticker" (it hangs from the rear-view mirror). Each employee may register 2 cars. We are provided with the VIN and plate numbers. Additionally, insurance i…
  • We have small facility onsite with locker rooms and showers (a must if you think employees will use the facility over the lunch hour!). Memberships are nominal (60.00/year) and at the beginning of each quater a trainer is brought in to assist in dev…
  • [font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 07-28-03 AT 10:51AM (CST)[/font][p]Here is a copy of our policy.....This has been in place for a number of years and was updated this month. I hope this helps! if you'd like any additional information-e…
  • Maybe you can take the path of least resistance...we've sent some of our managers to "how to be a manager" seminars. SkillPath offers a few good ones. While this does not lead to any great epiphany on the Manager's part-it has helped. And if the pro…
  • Thank you so much! I agree 100%..and this gives something to work with! xclap
  • Our Agency has spent the last 2 years developing one...and our department just began ours....what are you looking for? The current policy is about 2 thousand pages!!! feel free to email me: [email]dhollan1@pheaa.org[/email]
  • Your state police may also offer a background check program as well... make sure that your application advises potential employees of the background check!
  • Some of the smaller companies that you work with may not be able to provide the type of insurance you require OR it may not be cost-effective for them to do so. One of the ways we've worked with such vendors is to require them to obtain a bond for t…
  • Try SkillPath...we've had them do some training for us and been very pleased.
  • I have the name of an attorney in PR that helped our Agency establish a business office with employees just recently. It is very tricky and he was most helpful. Please email me if you'd like his information [email]dhollan1@pheaa.org[/email] -deni…
  • we pretty much provide only answers to yes/no questions. was she employed: yes. did she quit: yes. we do not provide a detailed accounting of behavior problems or attendance issues.
  • Since honoring the request will impact business, you may not have to comply...but trying to decide who gets the day could be a nightmare! Are you in a flexible enough situation to extend a barter? Offer each a 1/2 day? Or some other company carrot t…
  • Our company has several levels of awards...individual, team, department. Each year our Admin staff gets together and comes up with a running theme...we did the olympics one year....but the idea is to reward teamwork, excellent internal/external serv…
  • We are also beginning this process. If you provide me with your email address, I can share what we have so far. We are in a similar industry...it might work for you...
  • Thank you for your response...would you mind providing me with a "sample" of the policy/codes you mentioned? It sounds very similar to what we are trying to accomplish. Thanks again!
  • THAT policy should keep me hopping in the legal department!!!! x:D Thank you for responding! -denise
