Well - where do I begin? First, thanks all for your opinions on this, but it's as clear as mud right now. The ee works for my husband's company and as some of you have speculated - this person is a Chronic offender of abusing WC, STD and any othe…

I think VPHR hit the nail on the head. That's all.

Sorry to hear that you have so much on your plate to deal with right now. I was about to vent about the drama I had to endure this week (and it's only Tuesday). I'm sorry to hear about the loss of one of your employees. That's never easy to deal…

Sounds like a pretty big task! Good luck with that! Unfortunately I can not help you with what you are looking for, but I'm sure if you posted the job description you put together people may be able to give you some feedback and ideas as to what y…

OH THAT SUCKS!!! LMAO!!!

What was the "diagnosis" from the WC doctor? Anytime we have an employee with a back injury we immediately assign a case nurse or case manager. This way the injury is being closely observed at all times and that treatment is valid and necessary.…

QUOTE: Seemed like a waste of time to me. I guess the person answering the phone can't make that decision. Um, these are GOVERNMENT workers... need I say more?

You must be dealing with the DOL in Cobb County. The biggest bunch of money throwing liberals! I recently discovered that if you fire someone for violation of your company attendance policy they can still get UI b/c they can't control the reason…

PERFECT! Much appreciated!

If the company closes and still pays employees for the day, you can not require them to attend or use a sick/vacation/personal day. That would be like closing for Christmas Day, but then saying, anyone who isn't a Christian has to use a PTO day. …

Assuming that you had hired these folks through a temp agency- it would be different and you could make the exception, but if they are payrolled employees, they are subject to follow company policy.

Also, would ALL of his FMLA hours be applied toward the 12 month rolling calendar of the time that he took off last year or would his 12 weeks renew since his FMLA time went past the first date of his first FMLA incident? Why couldn't we just hav…

Thanks so much to you both!! J.M.

Administaff is a Professional Employer Organization. They do not do staffing, temporary or permanent. They will handle payroll (and all tax reporting and W2's), employee benefits, WC insurance and some management training. They are over priced c…

I agree and disagree with a lot of the responses given. I worked for a company that I was planning on being loyal to for the rest of my career (however long that may be). I was sorely underpaid for what I was doing, but I didn't care. The compa…

One other note: Here is the contact info for Medicare should you want to do additional research 1-800-633-4227 [url]www.medicare.gov[/url]

There are two notices that need to be sent out. The first one to be sent to all post age 65 terirees and disabled persons. It is due by August 15th. The letter pretty much needs to state the retirees rights to Medicare Part D The second letter i…

Wow! A mfg. facility without a/c! Are your offices at least air conditioned? Can you provide industrial fans to keep the air circulating and cool? Our mfg facility is ac'd, but then again we are making refrigeration products. We get complaint…

Don if you lived closer - I wouldn't doubt for one second that you would crash it! But that's OK, we're the right group of people to crash! We don't talk shop - we talk Margarita's and beer! And sometimes about recent court cases - b/c one of th…

I think your efforts would be better spent providing defensive driving classes for your drivers if they are getting into that many accidents. Charging them for damage to a vehicle that was caused by an accident is just wrong - unless they were DU…

We have a Tobacco policy. It does include dip, cigars, pipes, cigarettes and other forms of tobacco products. I had just heard mixed opinions about having to post signs on the front doors and people couldn't smoke within 50 ft. of the building a…

I worked for a pharmaceutical distributor. It was pretty tight security. Camera's everywher and in order to get near the product you had to have security clearance. You were never near the product without being on camera. We only had two insta…

Does your policy state how that information should be handled? As long as all parties involved know that it is confidential information and/or should be destroyed or returned to HR to be destroyed - it shouldn't be an issue unless an employee expli…

It never ceases to amaze me how people can be so crafty when trying/attempting to break the rules. Pretty soon employee handbooks are going to look like Webster's Dictionary. #-o

Another good defense measure is to show that the employee did not take the correct avenues to file a proper complaint - if there even is one. If she felt she was being discriminated against, she should have filed a complaint. Even if she felt like…

Yes you can enforce it. And of course in doing so it is setting a precedence for all future facial piercings. It doesn't necessarily have to be a part of the dress code. If you have any policy that states that employees are required to present …

Compliance with state and federal laws such as AAP, EEO, and applicant tracking are major reasons to integrate the departments. No one department/person should have all the say in who is hired. I like our method. A department requests a position…

Well it looks like I'm not alone. I don't know if that is reassuring or not. I just sent out a dress code reminder b/c there was a young lady in the office who was exposing more boob than she was covering. Unfortunately she is not what you would…
