  • As a rule, when we receive calls for reference checks, we only give out dates of employment, department and whether they were full time or part time. We do not give out any other information unless we have a written authorization signed by the empl…

  • We don't have anything "special" in place regarding adoption assistance. I believe we would basically treat it like we would a birth, and advise them of their rights under FMLA. I don't believe our disability carrier covers adoptions, so if they w…
