Mustang, If ya'll have so many extra qualified electricians in Arkansas, I wish you'd send some to Georgia. We can't find any really good leads or helpers(new hires, we like the ones we already have) . The good ones seem to have jobs and hold on to them. We're willing to pay top rates for top help, but they don't apply.
As for our policy on paper work and the do it on your own time. It was a suggestion by an employee at our weekly meeting and all agreed. We also haven't had the need to enforce it yet, it seems to have provided the motivation to get it done.
As for the law on wages. As long as the employees wages average out to more than minimum wage including time and a half for overtime no law has been broken. That said, I do agree that you can't back charge an employee for materials or charge them for having someone else make corrections.
