As far as the health plan applicatons, I would keep that in a separate file, especially if they have medical information or other sensitive information on it. I'm not too sure about the other two items - but I don't know of any law that says you hav…

I always ask what the person thinks are his or her strengths/weaknesses.

it doesn't sound like anyone filed a complaint...i would point out your policy on sexual harassment and issue him a verbal warning - and make sure you document it and put it in his file

instead of trying to play them off of one another, you can simply try to negotiate a higher starting salary with your new employer - this is completely acceptable. it seems to me that you don't want to stay where you are, so it may be better to move…

I would say something like you were impressed with their credentials and will keep them in mind for future positions. I wouldn't be too specific - you don't want them to take something you've said in a rejection letter to heart and rely on it.

i'd have some real doubts about this type of system. i can't imagine that an employee's peers are really as aware of his or her performance and the actual work the employee is doing like a supevisor/manager would. besides, i could certainly see a sy…

johnny bravo, that is absolutely one of the funniest YouTube videos i have EVER seen!!!

I think this type of article would be offensive. If you've hired these people, you should have some level of confidence in them to be professional. If you really want to do something like this, maybe you can incorporate some type of brainstorming ac…

I agree. If the clerk is disciplined or fired, she had it coming.

I wonder if people think that it's really fair to screen candidates this way? On one hand, it can give you insight into who someone is but on the other...it seems to be a way to judge someone for their out of work behavior...seems to be almost the s…

I can definitely see the need for this type of policy. But it seems that maybe the Home Depot could have just disciplined the employees rather than fired them...after all, they were doing what they thought was in the company's interest and being loy…

Honestly, I think that more managers than we'd like to know take Tony's iron fist approach. Honestly, I think that it eventually leads to discontent and disloyalty among workers - just like it did on the Sopranos. Employees don't like working for a …

It might, for instance, if the person has an accent. It's usually apparent if the applicant is male or female from a resume, so the audio doesn't present a different problem there.

by the way, the house just passed legislation to reverse the Supreme Court's ruling

One thing I'd be worried about is setting a precedent or unintentionally altering your leave policy by offering this employee special treatment...maybe you could tell him that he can reapply for his job when he's done, and you'll do your best to kee…

Let's just hope that no one takes this kind of thing into their real workplaces...yikes, what a mess... But i'm sure that all of these people signed releases, the more rique, the better the ratings, right?
-
We're all human...I think that it depends on the situation. We sometimes have no idea what someone is going through outside the workplace.

You could also check out careerbuilder.com or monster.com to see how employers advertise positions online. Putting a "job openings" or similar link on your home page may be a good idea so that jobseekers know where to look.

Not only that, but if gossip is directed at a particular group, it could be seen as harassment or create a hostile work environment...

good ponint, regdunlop...i think that i did hear that they were fired because the rumors they were spreading ended up being false, and they were about a relationship between a manager and another employee, and the manager made a complaint.

welcome! i did a google search and came up with some links that you might want to check out: http://www.timeplus.com/ http://www.business.com/popular/payroll_processing_service Here's also something I found that might be helpful, it lets you compar…

exactly. no one should feel intimidated or harrassed at work. maybe it would be a good idea to follow up with the employee to see if things have gotten better??
-
I agree w/ Bev. For holidays, it may solve the problem to do a grab bag with a price limit so that people don't feel pressured to spend alot of money or have to worry about who to buy for or huring anyone's feelings.
-
I couldn't agree more with schleprock...honestly, why would you want to come to work dressed that way anyway!! There a line between casual and, well....inappropriate.
-
Some employment laws require you to hang on to resumes, applications, things like that. So, if an applicant ever brought a lawsuit against your company, you'd have to disclose that person's file. So, just be careful what you write down!

This issue must be so embarassing for these kids...i think that Jake's idea is a good one. Besides, after they reach 18, the parents should not be consulted anyway, HR and managers should be dealing directly with the intern/employee. I think that pa…

I agree. If we see that two recent grads are coming into the same or similar positions with different pay, we really should speak up. It's just not right and, besides, its unlawful.
-
I think it's impossible to totally prevent workes from getting romantically involved, but Iris is right, you should, if anything, have a policy addressing subordinate/supervisor relationships. Those are bound to get you in trouble, whether other emp…

I think that the ERA is absolutely necessary. Discriminination laws are great, but they are not enough. Without a constitutional amendment, discrimination laws can be watered down, misinterpreted or even ignored by courts (trust me, this happens). …

No...is it online?
