Okay, here's what I would do (among the others that have been listed, especially if your wages are currently competitive in the market): Go back to the drawing board and look at your recruitment & selection practices. Where are you guys curren…

Hi jajwanda - I'm happy to hear that you will continue to post. I'm also happy to hear that you will learn from this situation so that it doesn't happen again. I want to challenge your thinking a bit though - try not to focus on all of the reaso…

Having read about your situation since your first post - and I even responded to your first post & tried to offer advice - I firmly agree with Don D. Paul's right in that no one's perfect in their organization, but that's not the issue for you.…

Hi juju - first, congratulations on the pregnancy - I hope all continues to go well & you'll let us know if you had a boy or girl. x:-) So, here's the straight shoot. YOU are letting this situation continue. From your post, I would say that …

A quick answer - try this link: [url]http://www.legis.state.ak.us/cgi-bin/folioisa.dll/aac/query=[/url][jump!3A!27title13chap90!27]/doc/{@54168}? It's the rules from the state on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault Program Standards, if that does…

Sorry about the tough day LindaS. Hang in there!

Oh man! I know I'm going to take hit on my position from Parabeagle and Don, but I think you should let her know that she can't use the company email for her request. I think you can be compassionate about your approach to her, let her know how de…

Hunter1 - I am so sorry. Having been in this situation several times, personally & professionally, I know how important it is to talk about it. Please, as you're taking care of everyone else, take care of yourself. For me the "telling" of the…

"I don't want the paperwork out publicly ( and I can't imagine his father really wants it - this kid is a HS Senior) so that the TABC (alcohol commission) comes after me for this egregious violation. We can't be there the entire 120 hours we are ope…

;;) Oh, I don't know, I'm generally a shy and timid creature that would hate to make waves - NOT!!! I'm in the Speak Up column - I've had to cry baloney several times over the years, so I feel confident I would do the same here.

Yes, Jimlegal - my thoughts are to go talk with them - don't personalize this issue - if you can't make the decision yourself & require a higher authority to make it - then just approach the exec's with the information - let them decide & th…

Hi Jimlegal - if you're that concerned for the ee & the supervisor, then go to the executives - don't hesitate - just go. Once you add social security, medicare, etc. to his request - you're really looking at about $10,000 to $12,000 additional…

Yes. Can you give some details as to why you're asking this question? I'm afraid I don't understand why you would question it. Thanks x:-)

I guess I'm having a problem with this issue - nothing new really when it comes to privacy issues. "Our policy on internal investigations says that if we discover criminal activity, we'll turn it over to law enforcement, but that policy is writte…

Hi Kathi - I would talk to your attorney before proceeding with turning the information over to the police. Just to double check - okay? I would hate it if you did turn it over & then put your company in jeopardy. Just my thoughts.

You're the benefits manager & found out about this - what has been your company policy on this type of information & how it gets disseminated to management? Are you required by your policies to keep it confidential - if so, you should follo…

Hi TLC Shelly! I haven't seen you around the forum - so welcome! Personally, I fail to see how a question regarding denial of health insurance could affect a client - or the rest of the questions for that matter. Don's right, Brad's right - your …

I agree with Don on the redundancy & have been guilty of using it on a post. I also agree with Hatchman and will use his wording.
-
I'm assuming I'm too late to offer any help - but how did it turn out?
-
No problem - the older I get, the more I realize that there's very little original thinking around - myself included. For a more in depth conflict resolution session - especially in a management scenario - we always start with everyone writing on a…

Conflict resolution - I know a lot about this topic - in fact I just ended a conversation with a fellow manager in which he had conflicts with me & vice versa. Here's what works best for me. Don't have individual meetings - they go on for hour…

Ah beag - I'm sorry to hear it & I'm happy to hear that you don't hold grudges against her for helping to write a "dismal policy manual". x;-) I too have not had to terminate a friend and mentor, but I have had to set up ground rules, change p…

Haven't heard it. I would check out your state reg's on safety laws/issues & see if they're required by the state - if they are, then continue with the practice.

Well said - much better than I x:-)
-
Well now, that's quite a crystal ball kind of question isn't it? x:-) In my opinion, I don't think it's a fad & I think in 10 to 15 years time, it will be the norm in most workplaces (excluding those that are or will become fully automated). I …
-
You have said that this information was provided to you from a client - so, I don't know how deep you want to pursue it, but I did some quick research. Anyway, (and please fellow forumites, don't crucify me if I'm wrong) she may have a point. I lo…

First, you've already stated that the first move wasn't made for the best of reasons, so what are your reasons now for moving them back to non-exempt? Second, well, actually, just the first for now. x:-)
