We have dealt w/ federal and state income tax, local property tax, and child support garnishments. It was not big deal. Only a couple lasted year or so. We're a small company and the matter came up with 5 or 6 people over several years.

Add'l and opposing points of view coming to light has been to offer the class, pay for the class ($35/ea), pay for the time to take the class (which makes it seem more work-related and a gray area). The other position, to distince from the litigatio…

This just came up today. Team was traveling to an auto show, of two vehicles, one was personal vehicle. Windshield damaged. We paid deductible. It's the right thing to do.

This particular situation sounds like it's resolved with the "violent act" policy, you might want to include "against another individual, including themself". Unenforced policies ARE the policy. Any time a published policy isn't enforced, that's t…

IMO if the system would allow people to have 2 weeks of unemployment and new employment, they could get people off the rolls. But the second someone gets a job, unemployment is discontinued. So if a new emp has to wait 2 weeks before getting a 1st …

I agree w/ above. Another tact might be a casual conversation about individual credibility or being taken seriously relative to his own future plans. That hairstyle in the recording or creative arts business wouldn't cause an eyebrow to lift.…

Thank you. I was starting to feel lousy about this. An e-mail is tacky, better to send nothing. We do company cards to a mixture of customers (some of whom are overseas), vendors and business group associates, totalling about 300. I like getting…

We look at whether the workflow or output is self-directed or directed by a manager or supervisor. The only salary positions we have are exempt, if the position is non-exempt, they are paid hourly. The salaried positions are project or objectives …

Here is the formula I use; you can run it for all separations or resignations separately from terminations. # separations in 12 mos x 100 ______________________________ Average # of employees

Thnx, then I'm OK w/ 7.41%

I haven't read all of the responses so I may be duplicating an opinion. You might want to consider asking the responder if s/he did not request non-charging, or failed to respond timely. If s/he decided not to contest the charging, ask for the reas…

I have zero experience with this, but I'm curious about the plant who falsified information. We have a statement on the application and in our policy handbook that false information subjects that app/employee to termination. Our "plants" protected …

That Friday is a fixed paid holiday now, since UPS no longer picks up ground (mail order company)

Whatever - are we long-lost sibs or are the lectures reproducable and available to family businesses at large (lol)

Thanx for your "1st person" input. What you are telling me is consistent with what's going on in our minds. We also have had employees want to hire people they knew, until they had to manage those same people. Then they decided it was better to N…

Well, over the years, we have had 3 sets of husbands/wives; a mom with her two daughters, sister, niece; a woman and her niece; It's a small town. When we had to term the one mom and one daughter (big issue-same dept), the other daughter worked in…

Thnx, I was wondering if you'd speak up! I'm always interested in what you have to say, although I admit I don't take the time to peruse the forum as much as I'd like. . . Actually, I have 2 months seniority . He's my brother-in-law and the only on…

Often, the companies through which you buy the benefits offer this service. If you have a cafeteria plan administrator, they may be a source; or if you have HR information system software, tech support could help you set that up. We include a stat…

We also need to expand our existing electronic equipment policy or write a separate policy covering photo equipment. Please forward a copy of your finalize policy, if you are able. Thnx, Debbie

Many thanks-I'll check it out right away.

Another thought on a policy for distroying all unsolicited resumes is that it is awful akin to shooting oneself in the foot. What if you receive an unsolicited resume for some type of position you don't have (EX: outside sales rep). Then 10 or 15 …

[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 03-18-03 AT 03:32PM (CST)[/font][p]More confusion. We seldom advertise for production type positions. We accept applications from walk-ins. We use a staffing company, and if we happen to be looking for…

Is it possible to contact your customers to find out in advance what their shipping/receiving schedule will be that day to better plan your staff? I agree w/ earlier suggestions about the offer to use vacation time or off w/o pay for those who won'…

Never assume - it makes an ass out of you and me . . .

I'm in a family business founded by my father and have had as many 7 or 8 immediate or extended family members working at one time; currently, down to 1 child, 1 in-law (president) & 1 former in-law - it works! I can appreciate both sides of the…

We implemented this plan just this year, after years of paying discretionary bonus based on what was supposed to be profitability. We created our own monster by sustaining the level over several years, and the retirement plan contributions reflecti…

I agree, if terminations don't raise awareness, what will? When I was a teen,(after junior high humiliation) my dad cautioned me about putting anything on paper that I wouldn't want the whole world to see. On a larger scope, our management teams …
