No. All of my employees work less than 40 hours, but I use 32 hours as the
time needed to reach "full time" status...and they all work at least 32
hours per week. In the summer, my hygienist does go down to 24 hours per
week, but still qualifies as "full-time". I only work 4 days per week, so I
didn't think it would be fair to tell the staff that they didn't qualify for
benefits because they didn't work 40 hours.

That's more information than I remember you providing. Ignore my fess up or
face Google comment.

Go wade through google, Gould. I have never hired a part-time employee to
avoid paying benefits.

See later comment, same thread.

Is this like truth or dare? I'll choose "face Google comment". But, I'll
caution you that you're wasting your time.

You're in for a looooong night if you think you'll find what you're seeking

LOL. I was expecting a zinger from you on the dental care...and, of
course, your silence about the other benefits.



But you did post that you prefer to hire two part time workers rather than
a
full time worker, and thereby avoid paying for fringe benefits. Are you
going
to 'fess up or do I have to wade through Google? :-)







And you never went into dentistry for the money, or so you claimed, but,
then, you did, or so you claimed. Not that it makes a difference.

Not that you found that on google, either. Right?

If you're following this thread as it unravels, you are no longer waiting. You
have already read your own words from last June.

I'm not trying to prove or disprove a thing. I'm merely part of a group
trying to find legitimate evidence that the Bush tax cuts have resulted
in significant job growth among substantial manufacturing or service
employers.


By the middle of last week, some 1,500 employers have been contacted
nationally by our researchers. The data to date indicates no job growth
traceable to Bush's little giveaway.

Not to get into a discussion, Harry, but it would sure be nice to see the
questionnaire you sent those 1500 employers. Not that a questionnaire could ever
be biased, but who knows?

I didn't say "temp" workers. I said "part-time" workers...someone that
may
only work 20 hours per week. A dental hygienist is a good example. That
position is not "unskilled" labor. Yet, many of 'em work less than 30
hours
per week. It's more cost effective to have two hygienists work 25 hours
per
week without benefits and OT, than pay one hygienist OT and benefits.

Nonsense. It's cheaper to bring in part-time employees that aren't
entitled
to benefits, and are usually paid less than the *regular* (non-OT) pay
received by the full time people. You obviously have little
experience in
the HR department, eh?

I had offered to let you off the hook, but you wanted to make an issue of
this
so here it is. Read it and weep.

More like "read it and giggle". Where does it say that *I* did such a
thing?

Then figure out who's spoofing your e-mail
address.

Next time, quit while you're (sort of) ahead. :-)

Granted, you stopped short of saying that you *did* what you recommend.

Nice try, Chuck! But here's what *you* asked:
"Didn't you recently post that you keep all of your employees down to 30
hours a week, or less, to avoid paying certain fringe benefits?"


And my answer to that was and is...NOPE!

Since you accused me of stating that *I* hired part-time employees in my
practice to avoid paying benefits, I'd say you owe me an apology.
