Coronavirus – Jaws or Y2K*?
For you the employer, for you the HR Director, for you the person in charge of paid leave and benefits and payroll and who everyone turns to when no one knows what to do: is COVID-19 much ado about nothing or will you need a bigger boat?
If you answered bigger boat, below is a list of articles, blogs, podcasts, briefings and audio files from our authors, Chambers of Commerce we work with, the Centers for Disease Control, the EPA, recognized experts in HR and others.
Click the state name for material specific to you. The state is followed by the author(s) of the resources and/or contact in case you have a pressing legal need.
*For those of you around for the changing of the millennia, Y2K was a synonym for the upcoming computer apocalypse, which would in turn cause the meltdown of the workplace as we knew it. Until it was the new millennia. And then it wasn't an apocalypse or a meltdown.
For those of you around in 1975, there was this shark, a big shark, but you figured Robert Shaw and Roy Scheider (and Richard Dreyfuss to a lesser extent) could handle it. Until Roy saw the shark.

Kathy Speaker MacNett at SkarlatosZonarich
Employers are asking what measures should be implemented in response to the Coronavirus – COVID-19 outbreak. Some are even questioning if they need a separate Coronavirus policy for their employees. Consider instead utilizing the employment laws and established Human Resources tools already in place, and supplementing with additional policies applicable to this crisis and future health care crises, only as needed.
The Coronavirus has caused some 3,800 deaths as of this writing; and continues to spread causing wide-spread concern inside and outside of the workplace. Employers can and should implement positive steps, without causing panic.
Kathy Speaker MacNett recommends consideration of the following ten steps:

Rich Meneghello (longtime hrsimple.com contributor), Anthony Isola and Spring Taylor (who in no way condoned, particpated in or encouraged any of the 13.9 million workers who called in "sick" or used PTO the day after last year's Super Bowl LIII but will in no way stipulate to same for LIV) help alleviate any headache or hangover, super or otherwise.

Don't care what you call it - lunch, meal, snack, dinner - you have to require your Oregon employees to take a meal period. Not only do you have to provide the opportunity, you have to require they take an uninterupted 30-minute meal period. And you, as the emplooyer, have to be able to prove that the employee took their meal period.
The Oregon Court of Appeals found that employers "are in a unique position to enforce mandatory meal periods necessary for the perservation of the health of employees." No word yet on night-time curfews, bed checks or mandatory story-and-a-tuck-in.

Once upon a time there was a social media policy in the land of Walmart. And the rulers of Walmart wanted to know that it was a just and fair policy, so they asked the gods that ruled their lives (Nike, Loki, Rhea, and Bacchus) to pass judgement.
So was born Operations-Management Memo 12-59, which proclaimed "the entire social media policy, as revised, is lawful". There was great rejoicing and much blithe moving in the land of Walmart and all lands, for now everone knew what was what.
And all was good.
Operative word being "was".
Our own Themis Fiona Ong discovers that the same social media policy can be both lawful and unlawful, especially if you got it from Walmart.

Biometrics in the workplace because it is scary for employers; it is scary for employees, it provides an additional level of security, it means taking steps to make sure you don't get sued, it requires implanting "a-device-that-you-won't-even-notice" in the forehead of each employee.

Can you justify a button ban? Are you sure?
Does it make a difference if the employees wearing the buttons are union or non-union employees? Hmmm, does it?
How about the three limited circumstances under which employers may place limits and prohibitions on the clothing choices of their employees while at work? Yes, there are three!
Well, Danielle Krauthamer and Setareh Ebrahimian do know the three limited circumstances and if unions make a difference and how to go about justifying a button ban.

Note to Self: Be sure to have clear written expense reimbursement policies in place before January 1, 2019.
Question for Self: Why Self?
Answer to Self: Because employers will be required to reimburse expenses or losses that employees incurred in the scope of their employment that are directly related to the services that the employee performs.
Follow-up answer to Self: And so you don't get sued.

Just because you say something is confidential doesn't make it so. And just because an employee believes the information is confidential and thinks they are treating it as such, doesn't mean they are – think airport restaurant and an employee checking in with the office over the phone, including names, numbers and obstacles overcome in a series of sales meetings.
Tina Syring didn't just think it, she encountered it. Here's how she helps make it unencounterable.

Correct. And for those unfamiliar with Slack the business application, it is a cloud-based "team collaboration tool."

Everyone has rules for the workplace: don't take stuff that isn't yours from the refrigerator, don't let your stuff rot in the refrigerator, don't pretend your desk drawer is a refrigerator. On June 6, the National Relations Labor Board created new rules for work rules, grouping them into three categories and providing examples of acceptable language.
Category 1: Rules that are generally lawful to maintain
Category 2: Rules that warrant individualized scrutiny
Category 3: Rules that are unlawful to maintain
Guidelines for a Valid No-Solicitation/No-Distribution Policy
Many employers would like to ensure that employees focus on their work during their working time – after all, that's what they're being paid to do! One way employers attempt to prevent distractions is by implementing a policy that prohibits employees from soliciting their co-workers (Buy cookies! Participate in this raffle! Come to my church supper! Join a union!) or giving them written materials to read while at work.
According to the National Labor Relations Board, the following guidelines apply:

When you took your job in HR, you knew that you would have to face some uncomfortable situations: terminations, poor performance reviews, disciplinary actions, but perhaps the worst of all is the "we need to talk about your personal hygiene" conversation. Your staff's poor personal hygiene can negatively effect co-workers and customers alike, and management needs to take these delicate matters seriously. Here are few ways to deal with hygiene issues in the workplace.
1. Have a policy in place. And use it.
As we say often, the best way to enforce rules in the workplace is to have rules in the workplace. When you have a clear policy on what level of hygiene is expect of all staff members, your staff can clearly understand what is expected of them, and these uncomfortable issues are less likely to arise. When new staff is hired make sure to go over the employee handbook with them and highlight these areas. Here is a sample dress code policy from our partners at Polsinelli that includes hygiene.

For many years, an employer that wanted to conduct internal audits did its best based on legal advice and common sense without knowing what the government would think of its efforts and if, in attempting to correct errors, it might inadvertently have created other issues.
In December of 2015, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (USCIS) and the OSC issued a joint document entitled "Guidance for Employers Conducting Internal Employment Eligibility Verification Form I-9 Audits." USCIS also updated its I-9 Central webpage with "Frequently Asked Questions: Self-Audits." An employer is still advised to consult with legal counsel if questions or issues arise while conducting an internal audit of its I-9 forms, but at least now employers have a better idea what position the government would take on certain issues relating to self-audits of the Form I-9.
Needless to say, a company can't operate (let alone succeed) if the employees aren't showing up to work. But how do you ensure that your workforce will consistently report for duty? One good step is having a clear attendance policy. Communicating clearly about what are acceptable reasons to miss work, how these requests should be made, and what does not qualify as an excusable absence can prevent a lot of confusion and make employees more accountable. The key to communicating these guidelines is a well-written and enforced "No-Fault Attendance" policy. This kind of policy may even boost employee morale by minimizing resentment on the part of some employees toward coworkers who suffer no consequences for being chronically absent.
Here is a deeper look at what such a policy should cover.
June 15th, 2018
It is not unusual for multiple members of a family to work for the same employer. However, such situations can be troublesome if the family members are in a superior-subordinate relationship because:
Immigration enforcement is a major priority for the Trump Administration. Work site enforcement and I-9 audits and inquiries by ICE have been increasing and they will continue to increase. In addition to this, yet another new I-9 form was issued in 2017. All employers must use the new Form I-9 during the hiring process by September 18, 2017.
The newest version of the Form I-9 is dated in the bottom left corner, 07/17/17, with the expiration date of 08/31/2019 in the top left corner. On September 18, 2017, use only the Form I-9 that contain these two dates, and make sure the I-9 is fully complete. Section 1 must be completed on the first day an employee works for you.
The changes to the new I-9 Form do not stop with the form itself - there were changes made to both the Form I-9 and the Form I-9 instructions. All employers should make sure to post the new Form I-9 instructions on the wall where you have your required employment posters and have the List A, B and C page available for employees when they complete the I-9 form.
Let's look at the silver lining! This change in the form may be a good reminder to conduct an internal I-9 audit and I-9 training to help ensure proper compliance with the immigration, employment verification, and E-Verify requirements, unless you've already done so when the (last) new I-9 form was released earlier this year.
It pays to take the time to ensure your I-9s are in compliance as the fines have increased significantly. Companies who previously had one audit are likely on the list for a second. Those companies who already experienced a second I-9 audit and violations were noted, are likely to see a third audit.
Whew! Who knew immigration requirements and paperwork could be so dynamic?
Julie A. Pace, The Cavanagh Law Firm
Beginning on July 1, 2017, under Arizona law, all employees earn 1 hour of paid sick leave for every 30 hours worked. If a company has 15 or more employees, employees accrue and use up to 40 hours of paid sick leave per year. If a company has fewer than 15 employees, employees accrue and may use up to 24 hours of paid sick leave per year. Exempt employees are presumed to work 40 hours per week (unless their actual schedule is fewer hours, then their actual schedule can be used). Unused sick leave rolls over from year to year unless the employer pays for the unused leave.
In lieu of an hourly accrual, an employer may give employees all of their sick leave hours up front at the beginning of the year. Additionally, . . .

Not all employers provide employees with vacation time, but for those who do it is wise to have a clear, well-enforced policy in place to prevent confusion and help employees understand what steps need to be followed in order to use their time off. If employers decide to to provide time off they need to make sure to do so in a uniform manner and apply the same regulations to each employee. Written vacation policies are the easiest way to communicate the requirements for taking time away from the office and to express in no uncertain terms what the employees responsibilities are for their time spent away, i.e., if they need to find a replacement for their duties or schedule their time in a certain manner. The sample policy at the end of the article can help you get started.
While there may be no state or federal law requiring an employer to have a handbook, there are a number or reasons why they are in an employer's best interest.
A job worth doing is worth doing well
A handbook isn't necessarily a get out of jail free card. Like any tool, if you don't use your handbook properly it can end up hurting you.
Where to start
While there are any number of policies an employer can chose to include in their handbook, there are a few that are must haves.
background checks
dress codes
independent contractors
interns and volunteers
law firms
non-compete and trade secrets
performance evaluations
personnel files
social media
technology and the internet
vacation policy

'To Each His Own' movie with Olivia de Havilland and John Lund 'To Each His Own' movie review: Best Actress Oscar winner Olivia de Havilland stars in Mother Love tearjerker Olivia de Havilland, who had starred in the 1941 melodrama Hold Back the Dawn, returns to the wartime milieu in To Each His Own (1946), once again under the direction of Mitchell Leisen, who guides the proceedings with his characteristic sincerity while cleverly skirting the Production Code's restrictive guidelines. In To Each His Own, de Havilland plays Jody Norris, a small-town woman who falls quickly in love – much like her character in Hold Back the Dawn – but this time during World War I, when Jody's brief liaison with daredevil flying ace Captain Cosgrove (John Lund) results in an out-of-wedlock child. When Cosgrove is killed in battle, the young mother anonymously gives up her baby to a childless couple in her hometown, remainingSee full article at Alt Film Guide »

Button phone fans can cheer. Nokia launches another reborn phone – XpressMusic 5310.
We recommend: Why is an old button phone better than a modern smartphone?
The new Nokia 5310 has a classic design and offers common, unusual features. It is the successor of the 2007 XpressMusic 5310, focused on the music side and quality music.
Good old classics
The XpressMusic 5310 has a 2.4-inch QVGA display. On the sides there are physical buttons for controlling the music and MP3 player. But what makes the phone "a little smarter" is the Series 30+ OS. The phone is not even so "smart" as its reincarnated colleagues with KaiOS.
The operation of the phone takes care of the 4-core processor MediaTek MT6260A, which is complemented by 8MB of memory. The battery is removable and has a capacity of 1200 mAh. The manufacturer promises up to 30 days standby time per battery charge.
(embed) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pY6CYeSm540
The rear camera has only VGA resolution, but taking quick photos is enough. 16 MB of memory can be used to upload music, fortunately it can be expanded to 32 GB with MicroSD memory cards. For private listening you can use the 3.5mm headphone jack, which also serves as an antenna for listening to FM radio. The phone also supports two SIM cards, but can only 2G.
The price of a button telephone is set at 39 eur (in the amount of 1060 crowns) and will be available this month in black and white, with red elements on the sides. Just like we used to in the XpressMusic range.

) as a "barbarian at the gate" (strong stocks crossing above resistance with today's range greater than 200%) candidate. In addition to specific proprietary factors, Trade-Ideas identified MedAssets as such a stock due to the following factors:
- MDAS has an average dollar-volume (as measured by average daily share volume multiplied by share price) of $21.1 million.
- MDAS has traded 112,405 shares today.
- MDAS traded in a range 246.8% of the normal price range with a price range of $1.42.
- MDAS traded above its daily resistance level (quality: 273 days, meaning that the stock is crossing a resistance level set by the last 273 calendar days. The resistance price is defined by the Price - $0.01 at the time of the signal).
Stocks matching the 'Barbarian at the Gate' criteria are worthwhile stocks to watch for a variety of factors including historical back testing and volatility. Trade-Ideas targets these opportunities because the stock is exhibiting an unusual behavior while displaying positive price action. In this case, the stock crossed an important inflection point; namely, 'resistance' while at the same time the range of the stock's movement in price is more than twice its normal size. This large range foreshadows a possible continuation as the stock moves higher.

. The company's strengths can be seen in multiple areas, such as its revenue growth, good cash flow from operations and expanding profit margins. However, as a counter to these strengths, we also find weaknesses including deteriorating net income, generally higher debt management risk and disappointing return on equity.
Highlights from the ratings report include:
- The revenue growth significantly trails the industry average of 39.7%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues slightly increased by 8.6%. This growth in revenue does not appear to have trickled down to the company's bottom line, displayed by a decline in earnings per share.
- Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 95.13% to $34.60 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, MEDASSETS INC has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 44.12%.
- The gross profit margin for MEDASSETS INC is currently very high, coming in at 77.39%. Regardless of MDAS's high profit margin, it has managed to decrease from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, MDAS's net profit margin of 1.80% is significantly lower than the industry average.
- Currently the debt-to-equity ratio of 1.94 is quite high overall and when compared to the industry average, suggesting that the current management of debt levels should be re-evaluated. To add to this, MDAS has a quick ratio of 0.58, this demonstrates the lack of ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.
- Return on equity has greatly decreased when compared to its ROE from the same quarter one year prior. This is a signal of major weakness within the corporation. Compared to other companies in the Health Care Technology industry and the overall market, MEDASSETS INC's return on equity significantly trails that of both the industry average and the S&P 500.

Samsung Galaxy S20 Series Devices Receiving Second Firmware Update in Less Than a Week
It is about a month since the Samsung Galaxy S20 series flagships, the Samsung Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, and the Galaxy S20 Ultra were released. Though smartphones are available in the company's home market South Korea, many markets are yet to see the devices reach the hands of the users. Samsung released one firmware update towards the end of February and it was mentioned that it had some functional improvements for the camera section. Now again, another update has been released by the company and this too is understood to be carrying camera improvement features.
Some Camera Issues Noticed
Last time when Samsung released the firmware update, most commentators were wondering about the contents since they had not noticed anything amiss with the cameras on the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra or the other models. This time around, however, it is reported that there have been instances reported of the autofocus in the camera taking a longer duration to set. This is possibly true for the Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra.
However, Samsung is now sending this second update to all the three models and the update file, of a size of around 250MB, has already reached many users in South Korea. The updates will be universal and even if you are yet to receive your ordered device, these updates will be the first to be installed as soon as you power the smartphone on and connect it to Wi-Fi. Some say the second and latest update is currently available only in South Korea and it may be rolled out soon in the other regions too.
Software Versions
The three software versions are as below:
G981NKSU1ATC2 – Samsung Galaxy S20
G986NKSU1ATC2 – Samsung Galaxy S20+ and
G988NKSU1ATC2 – Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra
If you already own any of these devices you can manually check if the update file has been installed or not using the above software versions.
There have been reports from the users of better autofocus function on their devices after these updates have been installed.
Samsung may continue releasing more updates if they are warranted. The monthly Android security update patch also gives the occasion to include any other software changes needed.

Samsung Display Will Stop LCD Display Production by the End of 2020
- Samsung will not produce LCD panels from 2021 onwards
- The four lines, two in China and two in S. Korea will be closed by the end of 2020
- All existing orders will be supplied to the companies
What is the Development?
The company operates 2 liquid crystal display (LCD) panel production lines in South Korea and 2 more in China. These production lines will now be completely shut down and, in their place, Samsung plans to start making the latest technology screens using quantum dot technologies. However, that might not happen immediately as the investment now is to start the quantum dot screens on one of these lines in South Korea.
LCD panels have been going out of fashion for some time. Apple, one of Samsung's largest customers, had already switched to the OLED panels for their iPhone range except for the budget model. From this year, the expectation is that all iPhone models will sport the OLED panels only. The falling demand could have been one of the major reasons for Samsung's decision to close down the LCD panel production.
What about the Orders Already in Hand?
The company has clarified that the actual closing down of the LCD production lines will occur only towards the end of this year and till then whatever orders they have in hand will be produced and supplied. Smartphone companies plan far ahead for their models and the orders for the parts and components are placed months if not years in advance.
What Next?
As indicated, while one set of displays is shifting towards OLED, the others like television screens are turning to quantum dot technology. The construction of this display screen is such that it can emit light in a narrow spectrum and they are not very different from the conventional LCD panels. The quantum tube is an addition and it joins the LED lights in providing the backup to the display.
The report indicates that Samsung is yet to take a call on the future of the two production lines in China which will become idle by the year end. However, it may be the end of the road for LCD display panels, at least on smartphones.
iPhone 12 Release Schedule May Not be Impacted by the Current Crisis: Bloomberg
- Apple follows much longer scheduling for its products and will not have any issue with the launch.
- Foxconn has had a rough Q4 2019 in terms of financial results; maybe even worse in Q1, 2020.
- Apple's products beyond the iPhone 12 could get impacted.
Dispelling most rumors which claimed that Apple may have to postpone the launch of its iPhone 12 and other models along with it this fall, a new report says there won't be any change. This more or less confirms some other reports which had quoted supply chain sources, mainly Foxconn, to say that though production in their China factories was disrupted they have since resumed operations. On the argument that Foxconn may not be the only source for Apple, it is being pointed out that the US giant plans and implements its launch programs months and years in advance and this 2- or 3-month disturbance in China would not have a serious impact.
Foxconn Posts Reduced Profits for Q4 of 2019
Quoting the figures filed by Hon Hai Precision Industry Co (which is the name of the company that is more popularly known as Foxconn), the report says the company's performance had already taken a hit before the Coronavirus crisis occurred. The figures indicate that the company posted 24% less net income for the quarter of October to December 2019 as compared to the same quarter the previous year. There are no prizes for guessing what the figures will look like for the first quarter of this year January to March 2020.
The company is trying to broad-base its production facilities by setting up units in countries like India and Vietnam. This decision was taken even before the current Coronavirus crisis since the US-China trade stand-off had been affecting its business. The figures indicated above are mostly because of this issue, though the general slowing down of demand for smartphones has also been a reason. Foxconn draws a large portion of its revenue from Apple and the US company itself had been facing reverses. Hon Hai has indicated that its revenues will be hit hard in the first quarter.
The current estimate is that some of the devices Apple has planned for 2021 may be delayed due to the disruptions in the manufacturing activities in China and many other parts of the world due to the pandemic. The situation in the US is assuming alarming proportions and there is uncertainty all around.
GTA 6 – A Fake Video on the Game Whets the Appetite of the Fans Even More
- There's a countdown that ends on April 1, 2020, showing the time till the announcement on GTA 6.
- A fake video makes an appearance on March 29, giving the same message with all appearance as if it is from Rockstar.
- Fans realize the whole thing is a fake exercise and vent their feelings.
As if the expectation levels among the GTA 6 fans were not already high, a new fake video featuring the Weekend song, posted on the streaming platform Twitch, took it to another level before they realized it was not for real. This once again goes to show how desperate the gaming community can get when it comes to GTA 6 and their desire to see it released. Rockstar has not been moved a bit by all this.
Disappointments Galore for the GTA 6 Fans
It all started a few days earlier when it was informed that there will be an important announcement coming from Rockstar on March 25, 2020. However, no announcement came. There is another countdown going on within the Twitch platform with an account GTAVI. This says the countdown is for an announcement. This again led to a volley of comments online before someone pointed out that the countdown ends on April 1. The day is called All Fools Day and a lot of people play pranks that day, basically aimed at fooling a large body of people. To top these came the fake video, also on Twitch. The fact is Rockstar does have an official account on the platform but this was from an unknown profile.
The Fake GTA 6 Announcement Video
This video, posted by one Troydan, has a title, YOOO GTA 6 IS COMING! The video is for just 1 minute but has content for around 50 seconds only. There is the Weekend song in the background and the official Rockstar logo flashes followed by the GTA VI logo. It just says in an all-bold line "2DAYS TILL ANNOUNCEMENT" and that's it. Does this mean there is some link between the April 1 countdown and this fake video?
Fans Let Out Their Dejection Online
Once it struck home that they are being taken for a jolly ride by the prankster, the GTA 6 fans took to all forums available online to vent out their feelings. Some almost cried saying how lies are being circulated. It must be conceded that most of whatever information has so far been posted on the launch announcement has been just speculation. The only piece of information that can be relied upon is the one on the voice actor from Mexico, Jorge Consejo having played "The Mexican" in GTA 6. Even that is neither here nor there since he is said to have done the recording in 2018 and cannot be tied to any immediate launch announcement.

Abstract English
Morphology and movements of vocal cords should be checked during bronchoscopy. In past literature, unilateral vocal paralysis is considered as benign. Evaluation of major underlying disease in
patients with unilateral vocal cord paralysis diagnosed during bronchoscopy. A cross sectional case control study design was used to evaluate all patients who underwent bronchoscopy during the year 2003 for various causes. Sample size was 194 patients [0.01 error and 80% potency]. Data including patient's respiratory complaints and radiological findings were gathered in a questionnaire. Bronchoscopy was performed in standard condition using local anesthesia. During procedure, vocal cord movement was examined with appropriate maneuver, and complete study of trachobronchial tree with bronchial lavage was done. Appropriate biopsy was performed when indicated. Specimens were sent for evaluation of AFB, cytology, histopathology and culture for mycobacterium tuberculosis. Unilateral vocal cord paralysis was observed in 10% [19 of total 189 patients who underwent bronchoscopy], Male to female ratio was 3: 2 and average age of patients was 65 years [range= 37-76]. Cough was the main complaint in 94%, dyspnea in 100% and hemoptysis in 32%. Smoking was present in 9 patients [47%]. Vocal cord paralysis in left side was predominant and it was seen in 68% [13/19]. Twelve patients [63%] with unilateral vocal cord paralysis had significant lung disease, eight had pulmonary tuberculosis, and four had lung cancer [one SCC, one SmCC, and two undifferentiated carcinoma]. Confirmed lung disorders in case group was significantly more than control group [chi square=4.92; p=0.026; Odd ratio= 2.93, 95% Cl=1.01-8.76]. In the remaining patients with vocal cord paralysis [7], one had old healed tuberculosis and 5 had chest roentgenogram strongly suggestive of malignancy who were referred for further evaluation. The bronchoscopist should pay special attention to unilateral vocal cord paralysis observed during routine bronchoscopy. We observed significant lung disorders present in 63% of these patients
