One of our store managers, Romeo, called today to inform me that he is now dating the assistant manager, Juliet, at his location in Los Angeles. How do I handle this uncomfortable situation?
The holiday season is upon us, and we’d like to celebrate this year by holding an actual office party like we did in the “before” times. Can we make sure only vaccinated people attend?
Dear Littler: You alerted us to wage & hour and leaves & benefits issues stemming from our “wandering workers” who have scattered across the country during the pandemic, yet continue to work for our Texas-based company. We have some tax questions for you.
We’ve been hearing a lot of conflicting information about what we may and may not require of our employees. Because our business is public facing, may we at least ask our employees whether they are vaccinated?
An employee plans to continue to work full time from his RV while living in and visiting three different states this year. Will he be able to use the same health insurance plan? What if he gets injured? How do state leave laws apply?
We’re thinking of expanding our recruitment efforts to those under 18, at least through the summer months. Before we start hiring younger employees, are there special employment issues to consider with this age group?
We are planning a layoff that will involve many of our employees who are working remotely during the pandemic. How do we decide who works at a particular location for WARN counting purposes?
With the election coming up, employees in various states are asking about time off to vote. I thought everyone was voting by mail this year? What leave must we provide?
