[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 09-18-03 AT 08:34AM (CST)[/font][p]We are not in the finance industry, but I suppose management training in all industries would be the same, despite the technical differences in job supervision. I woul…

Supervisor documentation is part of the job description. I disagree with Don. We cannot be rewarding the supervisor for doing what they rightfully are paid for! Yes, we are all facing problems with supervisor's little or no documentation. Perhaps i…

We are also using Abra. If you need a user's input on Abra, I can be contacted at [email]gchian@dominionelectric.com[/email]. You can also go to [url]www.workindex.com[/url] and select TEST DRIVE HR SOFTWARE to try on some of the HR solutions on t…

Before you start devising forms and forms, you may want to sit back and ask yourself some questions: "Did you like your own orientation when you were hired?". If no, why and what would have been nice for you as a new employee? What have you wanted t…

We do have a similar situation, and we are paying the manager who is working in the same department overtime for all Saturdays when he works. He is exempt and salaried other weekdays he works. Can someone advise on this one from a legal standpoint? …

To clarify, Kronos bought the source codes of Abra and not the company.
-
So, what I am reading is that if an exempt employee is late for 2 hours and still perform the work for the rest of the day, s/he should not be docked for 2 hours of work as vacation or sick?

This is not a done deal. According to info I pulled from the SHRM homepage, staff reports highlighted that the proposal was published in the Federal Register on 3/31/2003 and DOL will issue final revised regulations next winter. There are generally…

Looking at what's presented, it seemed that the process is flawed. This type of situations should not have happened. An employee usually will specify how much they want deducted per pay check. The reimbursements should not exceed what was contribute…

We understand the dilemma you are in. I went to the dol.gov website and found this. Thought you might find it useful. "Overtime Pay May Not Be Waived: The overtime requirement may not be waived by agreement between the employer and employees. An ag…

We have Abra for our HR/Payroll systems. What I had done in the beginning was to ask Abra what they would recommend that is compatible with Abra. They gave me a long list. My initial thought was to purchase a system that is compatible without having…

Kronos can be contacted atwww.kronos.com or 1800-225-1561. The info on the website is sufficient to give you some insights to what Kronos can do. Hope this helps.

Thank you for your input. We are also looking at Kronos and also Unitime and Time-trak. Is anyone using any of these systems right now and would like to comment on its use. Please let us know so that we can learn from your precious experiences and s…

We are a 251-employee private org with a sick leave policy with accrual up to 80 hours per year. New hires' sick time start to accrue only after 3 months. These unused sick leave per calendar year at year-end closing goes into their short-term dis…

Thank you for all your responses. These have been helpful in our review of our current coverage. Best regards.

It might be faster for you to use [url]www.google.com[/url] to search under the key words "Safety committee" or "Safety committee meeting" to find out a whole lot of resources on this topic. This is the quickest path I usually take to source for in…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 11-28-01 AT 11:34AM (CST)[/font][p]I attempted to check some resources to FMLA and found these resources to be very useful. [url]www.dol.gov[/url], click on Wages and click on FMLA. The compliance guide…

Damien, Could you share with me your good retention scheme? What kinds of competitive benefits you offer? Thanks.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 10-23-03 AT 06:46AM (CST)[/font][p]Hatchetman, Your resources are always so useful. Would it be possible for you to share all FLSA documents like the ones you listed telling us the website and how to acc…

When an alien marries a citizen, s/he will be issued an employment authorization card. S/he will become a Permanent Resident, however this process takes time but s/he should be able to furnish you with the employment authorization card.

We release only information like dates of hire, positions titles over the phone. If salary information is required, I would request that they fax the questions over with proper authorization to release confidential information. I had encountered se…

Would you be kind also to email a copy to [email]gchian@dominionelectric.com[/email]. We are also looking at an Employee Satisfaction Survey. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experiences.

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 05-14-03 AT 05:58AM (CST)[/font][p]In my previous employ, we had this in the performance evaluations. Essentially, goals and objectives are for the next evaluation period, i.e., the next year for many. T…

We have sick time employees can use for themselves or to care for their immediate family. When it comes to sick children, we tend to be more understanding since we know that in many instances, our employees do not have extended family around or some…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 04-21-03 AT 08:48AM (CST)[/font][p]I agree with Don. One should not release any such information until it is a done deal, i.e., HR and management have "all grounds covered". Truly you are not in a big m…

This is indeed absurd. No one should be allowed into the HR office without any HR person around! Why would anyone wish to enter a HR office without any HR person around? I would think the need may only arise when you are on leave since you run a sol…

Your plan document would have included your HR role to be able to use and disclose PHI. In cases like these, you can always have the employee sign a Release of Authorization on the spot and then discuss his/her case with the TPA. Your TPA would have…

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-26-02 AT 08:22AM (CST)[/font][p]We are probably in the same boat...some companies have HR depts simply to fulfil their legal obligations (organizational convenience), others put HR in place for their …
