Winter Weather's Not Done- Protect Yourself

Many parts of the country have been slammed with snow this winter. Just this week saw much of the East Coast receiving anywhere from a wintry inch to snarl Southern roads to over a foot to hold up Northeast corridor. Snow days (pr days due to any extreme weather event for that matter) can pose a real challenge for small business owners, often unclear of what the law calls for vs. common sense. Many an OED Certified Advisor has spoken to a small business owner both revelling in and frustrated by the privacy of their empty office when he or she has made it over hill and dale.

To help you sort out the issue of what you should do as well as need to do, we recommend you brush up on Susan Healthfield's article on About.com. It is not intended as binding legal advice, but rather education to make you aware of certain twists and turns in HR issues thanks to weather fiascos.

So if it's still cold where you are, grab a hot cup of coffee and take a reading break. If you're laughing away from the Sunbelt, quit laughing. Hurricane season for you is but six short months away and brings some common challenges.

Read the article here. Stay warm!
