  • Ours are very similar and generally not worth the paper they're printed on. We do have one department that has a new system though. The manager in that dept. has taken the job descriptions for his different positions and translated those directly …
  • Thanks for the responses. Non-exempt it will be (if the position is ever finally approved).
  • If their work injury meets FMLA definitions, then definitely start their FMLA clock as soon as possible. I believe other states may be different, but in PA there is no work comp requirement to hold a job for a person, so you can terminate after FMLA…

  • For a person to be eligble for FMLA, they have to be an active employee. Sounds to me like this person quit, citing stress as the reason and 2 weeks later wanted to apply for FMLA leave. Anyone that walks out and doesn't contact you for 2 weeks has …

  • There are special rules when children work for a family-owned business that may allow you to work around general age restrictions. Of course, they vary from state to state so check with local DOL or state specific info source.
  • Sure the real reason should be given. Preferably before discharge to give the accused a chance to respond. Unless the manager was 100% sure & could convince me of the same, I wouldn't give the OK to discharge without talking to the employee.
  • I agree wholeheartedly with the prior post. Plus, a majority of the artbitrators I have seen come from either a union or academic background. Not the types that are generally "pro-business." I had this discussion with an attorney last week & …
