Welcome to another Listener Q&A with The Team at HR Stories! Today's episode goes into these questions:

Several employees clock in early and sit around, drinking coffee and talking, prior to their shift. Are we required to pay them for this?What do you do if you start a new company and some employees do not have I-9’s or other documents?How do you handle an underperforming new hire that threatens a wrongful termination suit if they are let go?What’s your take on candidates sending “thank you” messages after a screening call?

The viewpoints expressed by the characters in the stories are not necessarily that of The Team at HR Stories. The stories are shared to present various, real-world scenarios and share how they were handled by policy and, at times, law. Chuck and John are not lawyers and always recommend working with an employment lawyer to address concerns.
