What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Tennessee
Alright guys/girls, I am having a few issues with a former employee. Before I say anything else, what a useful/helpful forum !
(1) Anywho, a former employee decided to walk out on us, he demanded timesheets after he quit. The first question is, do I legally have to provide him with these timesheets? I have read multiple answers in a few different forums and they said no, but I wanted to get a answer specifically pertaining to my state.
(2)Secondly, he claims 4 weeks unpaid, which is outrageous and definitely false. He claims to contact the BBB and Labor department. The issue I am having is he was told to clock in and out for lunches. He claims some days he did not take a lunch,and worked straight through his lunch.. Who is in the wrong here? His final paycheck was 2 weeks ago, but still claiming 4 weeks unpaid. If I print his timesheets and find that he did not clock in and out for lunches do I need to pay?
(3) Lastly, is there any way I can make a employee sign a policy stating that if they do not take lunches it is not our responsibility and they will still get lunch hours deducted? If that is not legal, do I just write them up each time they do not take a lunch? The current employees do take lunches and clock out but for future safety of the company, thanks!
