This is not just an LA thing. That rudeness is prevalent in the midwest as well. I, like you, always make sure letters are sent to applicants. I don't do them myself however. I have given templates to each hiring manager for them to send. It is a pa…

We have a rumors and gossip policy in our employee handbook. Here it is - short and sweet: If you hear a business related rumor, please ask your supervisor if there is any merit to the rumor. It is your supervisor's job to keep you informed. Person…

We only have one former employee who qualified for the sibsidy. And wouldn't you know it .... she wants to take us up on it. Neither our insurance provider or employment law attorney can tell exactly what I need to do ongoing. I guess I'll wing it u…

I am not a payroll expert by any means. However, I previously worked for a Fortune 500 company with their own legal department. We were told to NEVER write on an employee's W-4. We couldn't even write on it the date we entered the data into the payr…

I hope your boss has plans on how to handle the plummeting employee morale and mass exodus. I wouldn't want to be in your shoes when this is announced.

One thing to consider is how you would handle holidays that fall on Monday or Friday. Also consider how you would handle if an employee wanted to change which week they work M-Th or T-F. I think it's a great idea to help ease the effects of the high…

Hi Lisa, I can help you with that. What is your email address? I can send you our AAP and what I use for applicant tracking

I just went through a product demo for Payroll Maxx. Does anyone have any experience or direct knowledge of this company? Everything sounded good. But you know how that goes. I'd appreciate any info you may have.
