I don't see a case. You can consult a lawyer, but unless your relationship with that boss was not consensual (and you are saying it was) and it happened BEFORE you were hired and it stopped when you were hired a month ago, I don't see sexual harassment. You weren't forced to continue the...

Well if he was working off the books, then they also have some liability for not paying for things like workers compensation insurance, unemployment insurance (State and federal) and FICA taxes. That said, if they have him on video, they can easily decide to press charges and change his life...

@BettyC --I do know that QuickBooks (which is what we use for in-house payroll) used to offer tracking and reporting in the Payroll Module, but decided to take it out in 2015. I think they viewed it more as an HR function than a Payroll function. So I am not sure that it really is a legal or...

yuck.....I hate those kind of days! Hopefully your weekend will be better!

Elle is talking about herself in third person....methinks it is definitely time for Elle to go home! It's 5 o'clock somewhere!

We don't know but it started right about the time we got home from the Alaskan cruise in June -- the doctors are thinking it was either the cruise, the train trip (I rode backwards at a table for 4) or the overnight flight (or a combination of the three) that caused it. There is a condition...

Unfortunately for me, I am still having balance/vertigo issues from my Alaskan cruise/trip in June that won't seem to go away. Been to 4 doctors and now they want me to go to a neuro. We've ruled out eye and ear issues. But no true diagnosis or solutions yet. Spending most of my energy on...

Ugh. I have that same issue with one manager. No matter why the employee wants leave/long vacation/etc, she says yes to the request. Even if they truly just want to quit...just in case they ever want to come back. Makes it really hard to get rid of bad employees! Unfortunately she is a good...

And this is one good reason to require employees to set up a policy for paying the premium as they go rather than when they return. Either through any pay they receive or through a different method. Now some insurance contracts don't allow for a stop and a re-start, so many employees give a...

Back from Alaska and hitting the ground running with jet lag while processing payroll and catching up...not a fun combination. But I must say to cynthiag that I LOVED Ketchikan. We went on the excursion to the Rainforest Sanctuary so we got to see some of the town too. They had reindeer there...

Yep, Ketchikan... DD#1 and I are doing the Raptor Center and hoping to see the reindeer. My husband, his dad, sister and nephew are going salmon fishing. The rest are doing some type of 4 wheeling tour. In Juneau, we have to take a helicopter to get to the dog sledding. Not too sure about...

Cynthiag --- we can't wait to get to Alaska! The dog sledding though is out of Juneau. Our first port looks like a fun place to visit!

We are actually headed to Vancouver BC and then onto a cruise to Anchorage AK this next week. Wasn't planning a large vacation this year since we did that last year with my girlies graduation trip, but my FIL is doing this for his kids and grandkids from an inheritance from his mom. It's...

txls -- can you get a revised dr's note that limits the total amount of hours in one week? Because that does stink, especially since it is a work-related injury. And I doubt the doctor meant that he could work more than his total!

Many, many years ago while in college and I was cashier at WallyWorld and had to work the "greeter" position here and there. I remember those stickers! They were supposed to go on products the customer brought in with them to prove they had already paid for it. But we did have to wear that...

I am a bit biased against PEOs personally so this will be more about the negatives than the positives.... (1) How big of an employer is he? I personally would look for someone in his area who will allow him to cherry-pick what he wants outsourced. If the PEO wants to bundle, in the end, he...

WoW! Those rate increases are way high for a grandfathered plan since they should be using the older rating method! Does that mean you have had a lot of claims on those 12 people(and dependents) to justify the increase? Did something in your demographics majorly change? Either that or were...

One thing we did for a few years was to self-fund part of the deductible, but it was a taxable benefit to the employee. Say the old deductible was $1000 and the new deductible was $3000. If the employee met that part of the deductible ($1000-$3000), we reimbursed them for the portion used...

My lab/bordercollie mix is outside right now in drifts of at least 12 inches. It is too funny to watch him walk (kind of prissy because he is picking up his legs really high)! But he's not barking to come back in. And I just found the major downside to working from home...you still have to...
