  • blw, You may have a point I am not sure how involved with payroll she was so she may have thought the employees were non exempt salaried when they were actually hourly. Which would mean they were paid time and 1/2 for over time. Thanks for the we…
  • Yea Don, I think your right. Even though she is not...x;-)
  • I think stretching the rules is exactly what she is talking about. I will try to explain what she was telling me. She stated that they had non-exempt salaried employees who when they worked over 40 hours they simply paid half time for the hours ov…
  • Thanks, I have never heard it called that before.
  • Try this web site. [url]http://businessrec.dos.state.fl.us/[/url]
  • Here is a web connection with the story on the illegal immigrants if I didn't put the link in right it is on the MSNBC web page business section. I can't imagine how anyone who is not legally allowed to work could go back and sue for unpaid overtim…
  • We have a receptionist who does the same thing even when she is on personal calls. So I to await any recommendations I see posted.
  • Just a thought but if the employee has plenty of vacation and sick time to use does that mean he/she is a long time employee who has accumulated this over time and is this behavior something that has started recently? Could possibly indicate an und…
  • I found some information on this site... [url]http://www.planetpayroll.com/press_release_5.htm[/url]

  • Thanks Hunter1, I have a pretty good grasp on the travel time/work time issue and I do make sure our clients (or at least I do advise them to pay overtime and pay travel time as work hours.)I use the DOL web site quite a bit, I just was not sure ab…
  • Thanks for the help, I didn't mean to start a controversy. I do not have a copy of the FLSA reg you are refering to but will check with my corporate office in Tampa as well as some local contacts to see if they have one. Every company I have worked…
  • Congratulations.....I would tell my boss as soon as possible so you/and your boss will have plenty of time to come up with back up plans while you are out.
  • Focus on the performance, attendance, conduct issues and not what is causing the issues. If you were to accuse this person of alcohol abuse they may become defensive. Termination as stated earlier may be the wake up call they need to get them back…
  • I agree with MWild not to do the deduction without a court order for garnishment. I would wonder how the state would know what to do with the money when you sent it to them if it was not a state ordered garnishment with a case number and name and a…
  • I took the PHR and passed May 2003. I used the SHRM Learning system to study and participated in a study group. A lot of the test was common sense HR. SOme of it was pretty much geared to the Learning system also. If you had not heard of the par…
  • Wouldn't that be the responsibility of the MRO. They have to contact the employee with the results, and determine if there is a legitimate reason for the positive result prior to contacting the employer. The employee can request a retest of the sa…
