    in Alcohol Policy Comment by jriley June 2003
  • I agree, nothing wrong with it, however, can they "legally" request this? I thought an employee could do what they wanted during their lunch period?? We are a high-tech company. Employees don't use equipment (other than a computer and printer...) or…

  • Another option would be have the employees benefits effective the first of the month following their date of hire. then you don't have to get anything back. (BTW,I have been in benefit for 8 years and have never heard of such a practice.) Good luck!
