Our company owner decided he wants all of our employees sign an NDA document. Most people already signed it. I reviewed and found one clause that I feel very uncomfortable with. When I told our owner about it, he claims that he can’t modify an NDA document for one employee. He would have to modify it for everyone. Is this true? Why wouldn’t he be able to modify it for one person? Isn’t it an agreement between the company and an individual and has nothing to do with other employees?

It’s completely up to your boss. If you don’t want to sign it, don’t sign it, your boss has the right to terminate your employment for any reason if you live in a right to work state.

Also who’s going to clean just-outside-the-city hotel rooms after Republican congressmen meet their secretaries and aids for ‘document review’

Yes, this was ignorant, but everyone knows who it is that employs these people. Stop pretending.

I am trying to communicate document review guidelines to people who have not been involved with this sort of stuff before. Examples of the problems we are encountering are – getting feedback on first draft documents containing low level, detailed comments. We are also encountering a lack of understanding of why documents sent around in initial draft are not the same quality as those submitted for final review.

The standard titles used with in this project to convey document maturity /status are – Initial Draft, Core Draft, Peer Review, Final Draft & Approval.

As part of the education process, I really want some help to define each stage? eg "Initial Draft should contain… As a reviewer you should be looking to verify… (table of contents or something)" where as "Final draft should be at …. level of maturity, and reviewers should be looking to verify…"

I was the Drawing Control Supervisor for the company that built the Syncrude tar sands plant. We had hundreds of blueprints, specification changes, memos, etc constantly changing. I developed a document information log that was updated as the revisions were made. The log listed all documents , which listed the dates and status of each one. including initial date . All depts were given a copy weekly and they were required to sign it and return it to the drawing control dept with any requests for extra copies, or any that they didn’t have the current version of. It was less confusing to use revision numbers rather than naming them. you could have a sheet attached to each document that must be signed and returned to the originator within a certain period, and it should have an area for comments etc. As for the quality you should have a highlighted area on the document explaining that it is only a draft and the quality may be lower .

Recieved a letter to send proof for EIC, sent all the required documents.

Allow up to 45 days minimum. Your proof goes into a pile along with a ton (literally) of other submissions and these are acted upon in-turn.

I’m typing a review for an exam. I want to be able to have the document map on the side with the name of each section to just click on it so it can take me to the area i need without having to search for it page by page.
Thanks

To enable DOCUMENT MAP:
• On the ribbon Click the VIEW tab
• On the SHOW/HIDE group, check mark the DOCUMENT MAP box
This will open the pane on the left side of the document.

I live in Virginia. Is it law that you receive the HUD1 a day before closing so that you can review the document? I hate showing up to closing without being able to verify the charges and/or finding surprise charges. If it isn’t law, I think it should be.

Legitimate closing companies try to get you the HUD as soon as possible. UNFORTUNATELY, there is no requirement that it be done 24 hours in advance. Also unfortunate is that the HUD is not available until the LENDER for the buyer gets all the charges and fees to the title company; and I’ve seen them come in after people actually sat down to close

Should it be? Well…would you rather close with the HUD in hand and the atty going over the charges at the table today, or kill the closing for 24 hours while you review the HUD, possible have to recalc some per-diem charges and try again tomorrow?

HR Block said they would review my refund from last year, but now that Taylor Bean is closed where can I get an old copy?

I have always gotten a statement from my mortgage company to take to my tax person.

I would think that your present lender would have something, other then that I would work the heck out of a search engine looking for what information you would need and where you can get it.

Need to know if there is something that says the employee does NOT have to sign the review documents if you do not agree.

When you sign the Performance Review, you are not necessarily saying that you agree with it. You ARE saying that it was: given to you, reviewed with you, and/or you were given a copy.

This is just a SUGGESTION. If your back is up against the wall, and you feel that you HAVE to sign it, write the words "Signed Under Duress" beside/below/above your signature. MAKE SURE you get a photocopy of the Performance Review.

Then AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, you need to write a Response to the Performance Review – for example, in a Memo. You need to state why you disagree with the Performance Review. Keep it as factual as possible. Use dates when certain things happened. Then give your Response to your Supervisor. (If possible, ask them to sign that they received it.) If you work for a large company, send a copy of your Response to Human Resources. Make sure you keep copies of your Response also!

Good luck.
