  • The rates will be different. Do you know where I would get the formula? I can remember going to a seminar about this a few years back, but to find the documentation is another nightmare. Thanks. -T
  • WOW -- I guess you told me how the cow eats cabbage! Thanks for the insight, you scared me right into paying the ee for those holidays. (How do you put that little smiley face on?) Thanks. -T
  • If I reword my policy to the above stated, can I elect to only pay those regular scheduled Saturday ee's for the Saturday holiday. (that being their regular scheduled work day), or I could get them to come in on their off day during the week so they…
  • Thanks. Do you know if there is a rough draft anywhere of the proposed changes?
  • Why yes I have. I also HATE PayChex. I switched from ADP and went to PayChex, but only stayed with them for approx. 4 months. I am now back to ADP and absolutely love it. I am using their ADP Expert service which is internet based payroll. I co…
  • Again, a very late request. I would also appreciate a copy. My fax is 936-327-4388 or my e-mail is [email]bookkeeping@escapees.com[/email]. Thanks.
  • Thank you so much. I am ready for the unhappy employees, but only the ones that abuse time off will be affected.

  • Are there any legal issues in changing hours and wages from a night shift and/or a regular shift, both of 8 hours, to 4 days worked with 10 hour days?

  • Thanks, I thought I was going crazy. I knew I had read about that somewhere. Well, you know it won't be too long and it will hit all the states? Thanks. -t
  • The thing with asking her to waive would prevent everyone else from dropping (17 other employees). Which then makes us not in compliance with the eligibility requirements of the insurance company. Bottom line is the company as a whole will be dropp…
  • When the quote came back from insurance-1. We were not able to go with that company. So we went back to who we were with, insurance-2, and their rates went up a little. When their rates went up the high risk employee waived coverage. I was tol…
  • good point. Thanks.
  • That's what i thought. Thanks.
  • Ok, I thought this was the case. Now, if the employee does have severe morning sickness, does this mean that she can come in late everyday and blame it on morning sickness, or does she go to the doctor and tell him she is very sick in the mornings?…
  • Thanks for the reply. We do have an attendance policy in effect and said employee is aware. That is one reason we are asking if those other situations would count as fml. She is out of accrued time, which means the next absence would start our pr…
  • WOW, all the responses to this is great. Unfortunately, FMLA is a disaster for the employer to begin with. However, speaking from an employee standpoint, it's good to know I can take off work to be with my child who is in the hospital, or whatever…

  • It depends on what day I take a look at our FMLA policy on how I think it should be. You're scenario with granting unpaid leave to someone who has already used their accrued time in conjuction with FMLA sounds great. But what do I do when the empl…

  • 1. let's say an employee takes vacation in February, well in July, they have to have surgery, needing time off for fmla. They don't have any accrued vacation time, but they still get their 12 weeks unpaid fmla. So is it fair to make the person who…

  • I did give her the certification forms on Friday. I would love to accommodate this employee, bad thing is, as soon as others find out we are accommodating her, then everyone with a problem child will be wanting an accommodation. Once we had an e…
    in trouble child Comment by T January 2006
  • That is what I would like to do. But what about Worker's Comp? Does that count as paid leave? Thanks for everyone's replies.
  • I think you got it. :-) Thanks for the replies. -t
  • That's the answer I was hoping for and since your personal opinion is also mine, I find no reason to report you to the prinicpal! Thanks. -T
    in case closed?? Comment by T March 2004
  • That is amazing! I guess we learn something everyday. And now sunburns too, my ee's better be wearing sunscreen or we'll term for failure to follow safety regs. Although termed or not the ee has already got the claim. How unfortunate! Thanks. -…

  • Thank you for replying so quickly. -T
    in Worker Falls Comment by T April 2004
  • Well, I didn't wait until Monday. I just talked to my case managers supervisor and they are getting an investigator right on this case. I also have updated news on the ee. He is now living in Houston from Monday - Thursday and driving back home…

  • Thanks everyone for your input. First thing Monday morning I will be contacting my WC carrier.
    in WC injustice Comment by T July 2003
  • I placed him on fmla after his wc injury. My wc insurance carrier said it would not be worth hiring an investigator because we're not claiming the ee is working. The insurance carrier said wc fraud is when you're ee who is on wc is working for s…

  • I was also requiring that ee use "banked time" concurrently with FMLA, however, I sat in on a phone conference recently and they said that the employer can mandate that ee uses "banked time" but later if ee needs time off other than FMLA that we can…
  • Thanks for the reply. Definitely the move to another dept. would be pro company and not based on personal irritation. However, I think I will have the supervisor let the ee know that any more days missed will result in being moved to the other dep…
