Since I'm not the most social person by nature, I'm not very active with social media. I don't have a Facebook, or Twitter, or whatever. So, if anyone tries to Google me, there's not much that comes up. Hmm, I wonder if that could backfire if a potential employer can't find any information on me by using social media.

Are employer mandates infringing on employee personal freedoms? The article talks about employers forcing employees to particpate in company health improvement programs. By mandating this kind of particpartion, the company can save money and at times imposed state or federal fines.

You will find this article is comparable to oral contraception law, but also deals with the religious organization should be exempt from providing their employees with birth control. Here is a something I found interesting " It argues that while churches themselves are exempt from providing birth control to employees free of charge, "religious schools, hospitals, and social services don't qualify as religious, and must therefore provide these drugs and procedures."

It claims that many doctor offices, hospitals, and pharmacies have gone overboard in order to protect the privacy of their patrons and employees. The article claims that HIPAA compliance is beginning to cost more to the healthcare industry than it saves.

This article summarizes 10 top facts about Health Care Reform. Insurance companies will regulate more heavily. they will be told the minimum for services that they will cover. Everyone will have health insurance or they must pay a fine. Employers will be mandated to provide insurance to the employees or they will be fined also. Which sounds good to me, my employer thinks he doesnt have to give anything at all.

Many business are using new technology such as biometric finger scans and facial recognition to make sure employees are free of criminal history and are allowed to have computer access. People are concerned about the privacy issues that go along with facial recognition. Once the business gets a facial scan they can look up other personal information such as phone numbers, social network accounts, and home address.

I had a friend once that worked for a hardware store. He told me that the place had a camera by the front door with facial recognition. He was told that was so that they knew if ex-employees came back into the store. I'm not sure what they had to worry about, and I thought that was very unusual.

- Obamacare is still in its early stages and we have yet to see what it will do the job market in the long haul. The White House has pushed back the employer mandate that requires the employers that have 50-99 employees that care working full time to provide heath care coverage to them or have to pay a $2000 penalty. This could cause small businesses that make up a lot of the new jobs to hire less employees as the mandate goes in to play.

As a part time employee to be eligible for the benefits, they must work less than 30 hours a week, and work more than 120 day in one year. How ever by lay only full time employees are to be given benefits by law. Because of this many companies choose to hire more part time workers so they do not have to provide benefits.
