The deceptive advertising targeting chidren continued well past the 50's. Remeber Joe Camel? Was it the 50's when they came out and said smoking will kill you? My mother smoked in the early 70's when I was born. I don't believe even then they u…

No one has health problems because of second hand smoke? BTW the companies that got sued particpated in deceptive advertising and continuosly lied to American consumers. Sure they made a legal product. But I think the issue is a little deeper tha…

I think I know what you are asking, but it is not clear in your question. I see no problem with instituting a tobacco ban on your property. You are in CA, so who really knows, though. I do see a problem if you start only hiring people who do not …

A SWOT analysis would also be a good idea. I'm sure you can google it for more info. I can give you a little if you need.

On what basis would an attorney "eat his lunch", assuming this is their first case of observing internet use?

Do you fire people for surfing on E-Bay? I read that your policy allows that. If you've never had the situation and want to set a precedent, fire her. However, when you have a "good" employee do the same thing, your in a difficult positions if …

You said she filed a grievance that states she was unable to begin work becuase of her diabetes. I believe you have to make a good faith effort to determine if that was true. I think she's full of it, and you think she's full of it. But that does…

I read Hatchet's post differentlly and I agree with it. He said the supervisor acted appropriately at the time. Now that she played the ADA card after the fact it is important to begin the interactive process now to determine if an accomodation is…

You are right. But certain state laws require you make copies of certain files upon request, some even allow ex-ee's to get copies. So absent that law I would consider it compnay property and not (as I advised) give them a copy.
-
TN does not have a state law for private employers regarding ee access to personnel files. I would not give them copies knowing their intent was to give them to another employer. I would also be concerned with liability.
-
Here's WA law: Access to Personnel Files Washington law regarding access to personnel files is located at Wash. Rev. Code §§ 49.12.240 – 49.12.260. The provisions cover all employers. Under the law, employers are to permit employees to inspect the…

My reply would be "You are currently being paid for the use of your bi-lingual skills. If your are not happy with that, you may shop your skills elsewhere."

We have 1000 ee's and 8 manufacturing facilities. We have 27 managers that are department heads and above. That equals 2.7 %. We consider ourselves very lean and are committed to the effort to stay that way.

The supervisor >now insists that I misunderstood the "mind is >not right" statement as an indication of a >potential medical issue and that the employee's >inquiry about FMLA was insignificant, though the >supervisor did recor…

First thing that jumps out in my mind is who, in power, is she sleeping with? There cannot be another way that she is still employed if what you say is true. YIKES! I hope her supervisor is going to sit her down with the job description and say t…

You can require drs. notes, but do it consistently.

You have to build your credibility one minute at a time. Learn, learn, learn and don't back down from the good 'ol boys. Don't "threaten" them, but don't back down. I suggest you start some private discussions with Ritaanz. I'm sure she had the …

The good news is you are in the right place to fix each of the problems at your new job that you listed. HR is just the place to make a difference in those areas. If I were you I'd pull myself up by my bootstraps and get working. Unfortunately peo…

I wouldn't think twice about saying it or hearing it.

The harassment still has to be against a protected class and with the information presented, I don't see it.

We used to have an issue where people just did not go to the screenings. Then we started making them go to the audiologist on their own time. No one missed this year that was not on vacation or sick. You have not met your obligation if you don't …

I'll miss you. BTW this forum is free.

That is textbook advice on how NOT to handle a complaint associated with Title VII.

I deal with this as a respect issue, not a harassment issue. I suggest you do the same.
-
Yes I know what you mean. Based on her response below, I think my assessment was accurate. See her last paragraph. In my opinion if you are going to be a successful manager in the long run you have to deal with different people differently. You …

When I schedule meetings I always try to accomodate as much as possible. I think the supervisor should start getting bees with honey, not vinegar. It sounds like a contest to see who can be the biggest pain in the aXX. You don't win that contest …

Are you SURE the person you talked to at your client's can be trusted. They may have a personal agenda and that could pose a problem. A follow-up call with someone else at the firm with knowledge of the situation may be helpful. Also, I disagree …
