Q
How to deal with Manager who is stating that if you take 9/80 day off this means you have not enough work to do?
You may want to kindly tell your manager that taking a 9/80 day off is part of your compensation and work hours and that while you always want to be a team player and carry your share of the workload, you also want to enjoy a work/life balance, which helps you be a better member of the team.
Q
I'm currently travelling in China and I can't seem to get through to some websites for deeper learning. My question may be a bit naive. Regarding the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, is a hiring manager allowed to make a hiring or firing decision based at least partly on whether the veteran has a discharge status other than Honorable?
Yes, a hiring manager can require an honorable discharge as a minimum criteria for a veteran applicant.
Q
How is "good-faith"defined?
Thanks for your question about "good-faith."
Good faith is a subjective assessment, based on a credibility determination about a person's actions, e.g., whether those actions are transparent and motivated by legitimate interests and reflect the person's true intent. So for example, a good faith workplace investigation is one where the investigator truly wants to determine what happened and who (if anyone) acted poorly in the workplace in order to solve workplace problems.
An investigation without good faith is one where the actions are pro forma and the intent is to defend against someone's claim rather than solve the problem.
Q
When speaking in the workplace, do we have a right of free speech? - Is the answer for this question really No ?
Thanks for calling out that question/answer set.
We do have a right of free speech... it's just that the employer has the right to terminate us for exercising our speech rights in the workplace when the speech negatively impacts the employer.
Q
If a conference is in a tourist area, but you are flying government employees there for business purposes is there a level of risk due to the location being a vacation destination?
Holding a conference in a tourist area is acceptable as long as the conference has an obvious business purpose and the business is not providing free benefits to the government employees, e.g., lodging, entertainment, etc.
