KYMM: Out of concern, why the decision to shoot the time clock and toss it out for a time sheet, which is very much less reliable in the clocking of time for hourly workers? We have looked at going away from the standard hour hand clock to a mor…

SOHAPPYTOBE: Me too, and welcome to the forum. I assume your company either has a Transportation Division, or your company has made the decision to put in place a drug testing program, and you knowingly decided this, inspite of the fact that your …

JEWEL: A two hour one way commute for a position to do work and be paid says worlds of things: 1) dedicated to the ones I love. It must be love or you must be crazy to commute two hours for any kind of work, but you call it love! 2) NY is huge but…

BALOONMAN: I supported your actions and would have also suspended one if not both until I could sort out who saw what and what was first hand information. In our company policy, we do not authorize the hit employee to aggressively fight back. Mer…

HRQUEST2: I'll take a stab at your concerns, believing you are asking about an intern and background checks. That would strictly be up to your companies policy. The only known required background and reference checks for private business is the o…

Dlail: The falsification of the application was upheld. The termination was legit, but at the time we did not realize this was the inside plant for the union. It was only after the "union plant" was fired that the union had to come out from behin…

Anne: In my one opportunity for this arena the signs came from old time loyal ees who let us know of on going union activity and meetings. The hammer came down and the cat got to moving real fast when I discovered that one of the TEMP HIRES was a …

KIWI: Glad to read the company stood by the company policy. If before the ee blows into the test tube, he/she says I have a problem and I need help you might be sympathetic; however, the current use theory is not protected by ADA. Once caught …

MARC: Not yet but I put one on notice yesterday for this very issue. I had about a month ago rendered the mid-year review on this person in our corporate office with whom I have an administrative supervision relationship. My very words in writing…

I have drawn unemployment compensation on three different RIF events. If a senior executive is an owner, he/she may not be able to draw U/E for they may fall into the self employed arena. If your payroll system extracts or pays out premium payment…

SUNNY: It reads to me that your company may not have a written policy that allows for "reasonable cause" drug testing. We have a "Need To, Want To, or Cause To" clause and any refusal to provide a urine sample (blood sample testing is even more se…

IF THE COMPANY IS GOING TO BENEFIT, THEN PAY THE EE! Employee relations and caring for the ee is best handled in the positive. The company would not be making the arrangements and paying for the education, if it is not going to benefit. The passe…

SALLY: Evaluation inflation is an age old HR concern. I have learned to look at the evaluations in comparsion to other evaluations rendered by the individual manager/supervisor. Their evaluation grade is then established in comparsion to the value…
