    in Pay for Kennel Costs? Comment by Kymm February 2004
  • Traveling is not a part of her job... this is a one time thing - a "2-week" training. And the kennel cost is so high as she says she has 3 dogs and 2 cats to board....
    in Pay for Kennel Costs? Comment by Kymm January 2004
  • I am now being told (by a controller) that she believes their IS a "ruling" out there that states the employer would have to pay for the kennel... intereresting... she is going to research it more but seems fairly confident... ?? Anyone out there ab…

  • On this same subject... IF we decided not to require a diploma/GED... as we are a hazardous waste facility it is extremely important to know that our employees do know how to read and comprehend English (for MSDS's, manifests, etc) as well as just …

  • I'm unfamiliar with the term "shadowing"... what do you mean by shadowing their jobs, etc.??
    in Provide training/school for unqualified applicants? Comment by Kymm September 2003
  • Incentive plans like this drive me nuts! Why should employees be given something "extra" for doing their job correctly?? So because they have been doing a poor job with errors, now if they start doing it right we will pay them more?? I don't thin…

  • I can't agree with you more...when I first read this I thought "Oh my gosh... what is this world coming to??? When we have to "wonder" if it's ok to give someone a ride to pick up their car? Wow.... boggles my mind....

    in Hold position open for 5 years??? Comment by Kymm June 2003
  • I have been doing some reading from SHRM site and also talked to a "rep" there... looks like he IS covered under USERRA - it is not a "civilian" job and now USERRA covers voluntary and involuntary service. (doesn't have to be in a "time of war" ei…

    in Lying regarding an accident Comment by Kymm May 2003
  • Yes, we do have a post-accident drug testing policy... however, since the incident happened a week ago, drug testing at this time would be inappropriate. I am just trying to figure out the wording regarding the actual "lying" about the whole deal (…
    in Lying regarding an accident Comment by Kymm May 2003
  • Thanks, Don... yes, unfortunately, we are a federal contractor so I don't have much choice in this. I had checked out the OFCCP website, but guess I was just hoping someone out there might have "samples" of their wording that they use - just tryi…

  • I would like to add a "section" into our Manager/Supervisory performance review regarding "Adherance to HR Policies/Practices". Many of them neglect to follow up on performance problems, document disciplinary actions, etc. (Even just getting docu…

  • Thanks, everyone.. and Rose, you are correct...we have to keep the plant running with a skeleton crew (only "critical" positions will work). Something else did come up, though... an employee asked that being we were "making them" take a week off, c…

    in Tape Recording an Investigation Comment by Kymm August 2002
