I have 2 questions. We have an employee who is going through a serious illness. Which will require neurosurgery. Her one year anniversary is Nov.30. We put her on furlough until Dec 7. Are her days on furlough counted towards her 1 yr. for FMLA?
My 2nd question is. She stopped by last week to make her first payment for COBRA.
She stated she was on her way to an appt. regarding her illness. I don't know why but our benefits director told her if she did not pay her premium now she would not have coverage. She also made her sign a waiver declining coverage for her spouse and children. I'm not totally versed on COBRA. But I do know that payment is not due when you enroll. She had recieved COBRA papers several days before. Im concerned about this as she is represented by a union.
Any thoughts?

Daily Q&A

How to Address Flagging Motivation?

How do I increase motivation levels in the department? How do I brand my business unit as an attractive place to work? I have top-notch IT professionals in my business unit who feel they are "children of a lesser God" because they are non-billable resources and do not get plum postings abroad, nor the glamour that goes with them. As a result, their motivation suffers.
