[quote=scaredyclassic]If a remote employee in an RV gets in a wreck while on the clock, is the company liable for those damages?[/quote]
No because, technically i dont know about it officially and dont officially recognize it. its like giving someone under the table comp time. i make them fill out the timecard with a PTO request and they take the comp day off. if something happens to them , I approve and process the pto request, and then its on them… if nothing happens, when they get back, i reject and delete the pto request so it doesnt count against their balance.
Same deal, i have them fill out a month worth of PTO at a time, and if nothing happens i reject it at the end of the month. and open a new one for the next month. while the pto request is pending, no one else. sees it except me. And if anyone asks, ill just say hes planning to take an extended pto, but we are working out the details….
1 month doesnt raise eyebrows, because thats usually how long someone overseas like from china or india take their pto…longer than 1 month gets sketchy, because technically with the exception of CA employees other state employees cant rollover their vacation balances and there is a maximum of 6 weeks vacation per year for the employees with the most seniority.
