Honestly this is always the best way to do it. “This is going to cost you X” is the best way to get someone that owns the company to pay attention. -- nm - spamlet Jul 21, 11:15
tricky word. Are you speaking legally or in terms of "it would be bad if they left" because - oblique Jul 21, 11:13 8
- I can see both. And you can appeal for cost savings, too. Improving the company's bottom line is always good. - ReluctantCynic Jul 21, 11:32 1
  - Also, the Worker's Comp policy should be posted somewhere visible to all employees, with the insurer's phone number. Give them a call and ask. - Max Jul 21, 12:15
- Think of health insurance costs if it gets passed around, one bad case, a million dollars -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 21, 11:16 4
  - The fact we're all in the office since early June makes me think that this isn't where the concerns lie... -- nm - oblique Jul 21, 11:17 3
    - Until it is...the cya question is, does the work get done while WfH? -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 21, 11:19 2
      - Yes. It wasn't ideal for me being the only person in the office handling the hands-on things but our department kicked ass WfH from March->June - oblique Jul 21, 11:22 1
        
        get a volunteer or two to report they have to self quarantine as they were 'exposed' then request funds for an office deep clean -- nm - zeitgeist Jul 21, 11:33
- They won’t quit now but it’s certainly not going to help morale and may make them look quicker. -- nm - spamlet Jul 21, 11:14
Solution: Zoom call with Max present -- nm - the ice Jul 21, 11:11
Good idea. -- nm - David Jul 21, 11:11
