Don, While my degree is in Psychology, I don't believe I should be giving advice that could affect your relationship with your wife! But if I were you, Don, I would not approach your wife with such a satement, only because she may be willing to he…

It seems to me that almost every FMLA case is "a can of worms" these days! I find myself having to question more and more what is allowable under the FMLA i.e. migranes, elective procedures. In your situation I would try not to address this as a "f…

I believe you CAN ask for a Dr's excuse for each unscheduled absence for approved FMLA intermittent leave, but it is not an advisable practice.

Linda, My boss and I are going to sit down with the payroll Clerk and Manager and discuss our options. I will definately suggest what you have told me! Thank you! I really appreciate it. I am looking forward to having a system that works for…

thank you. I will ask and see what happens.

Linda, A spreadsheet is what I would really like to use. The resonsiblity of FMLA was handed over to me about 6 months ago, so I am still trying to sort everything out. We have about 400 employees at various satelite locations. Right now our ac…

I agree with checking your company policy. There is no reason why you can't deny the 18 days of vacation being requested in January. We do not usually allow employee's to take more than 2 weeks vacation off at a time because it disrputs operatio…

If you do it for one, you do it for all.

Section Number: 825.113 Section Name: What do ``spouse,'' ``parent,'' and ``son or daughter'' mean for purposes of an employee qualifying to take FMLA leave? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (a…

I would check your state law on this one.
-
Yes that does help. No we do not require a fitness for duty form from an employee who was on FMLA leave to help with treatment of a family member. Im not sure if I could justify asking for one. If you don't mind me asking, what is the purpose o…

What do you mean by documentation? Are you asking if you need a return to work form signed by a doctor?? Please clarify
-
Is the pay the same?

I think approving this trip as FMLA leave is a bit risky. To be safe I would ask for a medical certification from the Make a Wish Foundation. Just because you know the reputation for this foundation as being psychologically curing doesn't mean it …

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 01-07-03 AT 01:58PM (CST)[/font][p]Interesting request by OSHA. Im curious about this letter and why it needs to be reviewd by employees... Good luck with all the questions that posting this letter w…

If they are hired we keep them with the employee's personnel file. If the applicant is not hired, we keep them on file for 60 days.

Our policy state that when an employee misses work due to inclement weather, they must make up the time using either personal or vacation time. Or if the amount of time missed can be "made up" within the next week, employees may do so with their ma…

How could you do this to your employees? Some of us really feel the guilt around this time of year, please don't make it worse! I think we are all old enough to understand the meaning of Christmas and I agree that Charity is wonderful, but please …

It's what we all think, but don't say! You may as well be honest about why we have certain dress codes in place. It's all about apearance. You will never convince me that wearing hose is a safety issue like wearing closed toe shoes is.
-
I am part of the "younger generation" and I think of hose as something you wear in the winter with closed toe shoes. Hose makes your legs look smooth and creates the illusion that they are all one color (sometimes a darker color). For those of us…

I don't remember what movie this one is from but it always gives me a good visual and idea of how bad it can get: "I'd rather be pushed down a slide of razor blades into a pool of peroxide than do what your asking me to do"

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 11-07-02 AT 03:58PM (CST)[/font][p]I put in my 40 hours. Luckily I am an assistant so I get paid for my overtime, which is rare, unlike my boss's schedule. She is the HR manager and works non stop. Sh…

My point was that it is a risk to spend four years (that's where the "guts" come in) dedicating yourself to a degree and after graduation throw yourself out in the business world (I don't like the term "real world", you wouldn't say that college kid…
-
I agree with Pork that it depends on the company's needs at the time of hire. I personally have a soft spot for degreed people with little experience. It takes guts (and dedication) to go to school and spend 4 years (in this case 6 or 7) to rece…

Employee's dress up and we give prizes for the most creative costumes. The prizes are $25 for individual and $50 for groups of 2 or more. We have a lot of fun and employee's love the free donuts in the morning!

Hopefully Don will get out his dictionary for this one!

We too use the ADP system. Our badges have our company name and logo, employee first and last name (unless they work in patient care, then it is only the first name), and it works as the time clock activator and entrance key to the employee only do…

Lunches have become such a pain to enforce. I appreciate all of the comments and ideas, THANK YOU! From what everyone has said it doesn't sound very safe to automatically deduct time from an employee for lunch time or not. I think I will suggest …
