OK is this right for the workplace and what can we do?

Firstly does your bf own the company or is he a worker?\n\nSecondly unions are legal and allowed to sign up members. However this sounds like it goes a little far, unless your bf has done something like cross a picket line , then he better know he's not going to be liked or respected and that's why he's being called a rat and a scab.  As for the other man is he really an illegal allien?  Then INS could come in and send him back .\n\nYou know unionism only grows when the employees sense that management is not dealing with them fairly and respecing the work they do.  When people do not feel valued or respected or acknowledged for their contributions then they become angry and push back in the only way they know how as a group.\n\nUnions are not all demons nor is management always the enemy however if that's how management and union posture themselves then there won't be any kind of labour peace.

Start a union movement...........that's the best way these days to stick to any company...........even if it don't pass, just the litigation's and the cost, and humanity they will have to endure will be enough..................\n    or you can just live by what goes around comes around........sooner or later those that do harm to others will get whats coming to them........and you won't have to do anything...because if you do "what goes around comes around"

For me it's good.  Me and my husband used to work in the same company when we were young and he was still my boyfriend then.  When we're in the workplace we just do our jobs and act professionally.  It is also good to share the same problem and solve it together.  I think the best thing to do is set aside personal feelings whenever you're inside the workplace but once you're outside you can do whatever you want with each other.

You could go to your immediate superior or to human resources and ask them if you can get some more help in your department.  \n\nI'd not accuse this co-worker as that would reflect badly on you as well.   I'm sure they'd be more likely to get a temp or some more help if you tell them that the workload would run more streamlined and the work get done in a more timely manner.

The best advice I can offer is to lead by example and get your employees to want to work for you. Remember, employees are not there to help their boss, the boss is there to help the employees.

Give your boss a good smack in the mouth. You should see changes taking place shortly afterwards. Glad to be of help.

I'm happy..So what my office won't be cleaned this evening..I can do it myself..We should all take note of this..Doing little things ourselves may cut down on their labor force and send them packing..I've even decided to do it myself all the time and fire them...How's that for how much we need them...

You need to call the labor relation board in your state and see if that is legal. It doesn't sound like it but they would know the answers. You can do it without stating what company you work for.

hi.\ncheck your controls, are they enough to prevent spilferages, window dressing, leakages, etc.\nthen check also your operations policies, is it making good effect on the income of the company? they might have been so much workers for an ample task. check also that your people are happy working for you?

I totally agree, and there are many ways to help others. Hiring a new employee is one way. Good people give it back the other way.

True, it is not fair and we hate working with people who are so full of BS, especially when we come to work every day, because we want to do the "right thing'.\n\nHowever...........I was told something many years ago by a manager, that I will never forget and will share with you right now..........\n\nYou worry about you and not what every one else is doing or not doing for that matter. Make sure you come to work when you are supposed to and do the best job that YOU possibly can do. \n\nWhat your co-worker is doing is not going unoticed and what you are doing is not going unoticed. Let's see how long your co-worker will be employed versus you.

Perfectly legal. You should watch the news more! If you are being paid to work for that company, work. Do not access anything personal except at lunch or breaktime.Our company also checks to make sure no one is going on naughty websites and can tell you what has been erased even! You can come in early or stay late for personal things, if you have no other choice. They are not interested in your bank account-only of you were paying bills on company time.

It depends on whether or not there is a union in your business. Another thing, are you staff or management? Either way, you would have to negotiate.

This is an open forum for asking and answering questions. I don't think where you work makes a difference.

I would discuss this with your company management and see what they say.  If they're providing the home office, they probably have guidelines for deciding issues like this.
