When will I get my holiday pay? -

I get paid fortnightly.My next pay date is 4th December, and the following one is 18th December.Our office is closed over Chrismas from 23rd December - 4th January.So normally i would get paid on 1st January, however, its obviously a public holiday and no one will be there to do it. If we dont resume back until the 4th will i be paid my holiday pay back on the 18th decemeber before we go on break?

If you get paid fortnightly and everyone goes on holiday from your place of work over the Christmas New Year break as part of the employing company s policy you will not get any extra pay.You get your holiday pay when you get your four or six weeks annual leave. With most employers it is four weeks annual leave. You should have clarified this with your employer when you started at your place of employment. This is a lump sum of four weeks pay. You will have to work a year from the time you started employment at your place of work to qualify for holiday pay.You do not get holiday pay because it is Christmas, Easter or some other public holiday. Under the present system you are supposed to negotiate as to whether you get time and a half or double time if you work on public holidays like Boxing Day. This is particularly the case in the Hospitality Industry where there are employees on the go all the time to cater to tourists. I hope that this helps clear the air and explain that Holiday Pay is for your Annual Holidays. Cheers!!!

i think you should ask your employer..but if your looking for extra money,theres this site called ********, i absolutely loooooove it :D its a survey/offer site thing, where you fill out surveys and such. blah blah. and you can make a LOT of money a month.i have made over 10 bucks already and ive been using this for like... idk, a week :) im a teen and this is the way that i earn money. lol. :Phttp://www.*************/1550973thats the link :)i also have this other site that lets you earn money, except you can only join by email.. so if you want to, msg me :) its called lockerz.good luck!gosh, i wrote a lot. i should be doing my essay. lol.EDIT: ahhh, wtf. it blocked out the website name...? omg.. ugh. apparently im spamming? uh no.. well if you want the site, msg me. sorry :(

You need to ask this of your payroll department. Companies handle these kinds of situations differently, there s no way of knowing on this end.

Has anyone started a small business? -

If you have started a small business/home business...How much did it cost you to start?What is your business?Are you making any profit/ how much?How did you get it started/

Q: Has anyone started a small business? A: Yes, I m on my second one now.Q: If you have started a small business/home business... A: They were/are home based businessesQ: How much did it cost you to start? A: The first one about $500, the one I m doing now Free.Q: What is your business? A: First: Online Retail of Baby Products. Second: See my source for more details.Q: Are you making any profit/ how much? A: First: Lost money. Not even a single sale. Second: Not much to speak of yet probably $20 or less (but I m in the black, I just started and am building my business).Q: How did you get it started? See my source for more details.My first business didn t do so well, I spent a lot of money and didn t make a single sale. The second business - what I m doing now - is free to sign up and has different components that you can join or not join if you choose. Some components are free and some aren t (those that aren t free have a free trial period). The free ones have a more limited earning capability but can be used to build capital for the ones with more substantial earning potential. The free component can also be used as proof that money can be made online before committing to options that require a monthly fee. You can make a little bit of money in a short period of time but to build significant income will take time, effort, and persistence. It s not difficult to do, but it s not easy money either.If you re interested see my source for more information.

My first business was a content based website. I wrote about health and wight loss. Now I am earning money from this, but not so much. less then 1 $ per day. Now I m thinking to build a new e-business with site build it. It s a professional solution for a small online business

I need some ideas on a good name for a business? -

My husband and I are planning on opening up a store. We will have just about anything and everything. We will not specialize in selling one specific item. Some items include sheet sets, hats, bandanas, air soft guns, body jewelry, blankets, lamps, and so much more. I was thinking the name All That More but he doesn t seem to like it so maybe you can help.

Brainstorming Tips for Creating a Name:Any names that are suggested here may already be owned by another party and/or may be trademarked so I wanted to go a different route...Here s a few things to keep in mind:1) Keep your industry, your clients/customers, your advertising plan in mind. 2) The more unique distinctive a name, the higher the chances that the name is legally available for use. And the higher the chances of obtaining the trademark.3) Think of your business as having a personality. What kind of image do you want your business to portray? Specific brainstorming tips:Think about what you want but more importantly, think about what you DON T want. If you don t want a 3-word name, don t bother with those. If you don t want non-English words, don t bother with those so on and so forth.What are the types of names you like? Think about words in their simple forms, e.g. adjectives, Latin roots, mythological names, etc. Compile a listing of the types then seek out resources, such as books or sites, which specialize in those types.Here are some links where you can do some preliminary name checking:http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/index.js�� �C Click Search Marks: USPTO �C Preliminary Search of Federal trademarkshttp://www.statelocalgov.net/50states-se�� --Go to your state s Secretary of State page to see if they have a searchable database of business nameshttp://www.hoovers.com/free/ http://www.thomasnet.com �C Must register (free) to search their databasehttp://www.nameboy.com �C Domain name searchhttp://yellowpages.superpages.com/yp.adv�� �C National yellow pages; leave location blank to search nationwide However, please be aware that this is merely scratching the surface of what s out there. Only comprehensive research will tell you if the name is truly available. But, these links are free a great place to start, so I d try them out first. This entails searching the pending registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. Then, if clear, you can decide if you would like to file for a Federal or a State trademark. Hope that helps! I wish you much success happiness in all your ventures!

First of all best of luck in your venture. Try reading the book the Knack its about how to make a business work. Second of all, my name is going to be the name of my business, because I think this will make it represent me and give me a reason to make the business live up to my own name. Also, my name will then be an advertisement for my business.

Prices to charge for my cleaning business.? -

I am having trouble deciding how to bill my clients. By the hour by the job by square feet or by room? HELP!!

in janitorial work you always charge by area concerned. period. when you start you will clean everything from top to bottom and what will take you multiple hours you charge extra like a clean-out charge. just to get the account to a place where your maintenance of that level of cleanliness can be done in minutes, for a monthly fee based on square footage

If it is just you yourself, then it is best to charge by the hour or by the day. If you charge $15/hour, you ll net about $10/hr after taxes. In major metro areas, you can probably charge $20/hr. Also be sure to set a minimum of 4 hours (= 1/2 day).Some people cram alot into small square footage. In fact, the less the square footage, the harder and more time-consuming it tends to be to clean. And a room can vary widely in size, contents, and cleaning needed. A LR can be 12 x 15 , or 30 x 50 !

Hi! I clean small offices and have friends that do residential. Artie is sort of right. Actually, calculating your charges is a combination of hours and square footage. But for the client, it should be presented as square footage. Why? Because as you get more efficient, you get faster and you either lose money or lose clients because they think they are not getting their money s worth.You need to determine how long it takes you to complete certain cleaning tasks, the room size, and have pricing for doing this for very dirty, dirty and lightly dirty rooms.There s a lot more to it, but this gives you an idea. I have more tips, resources on my Squidoo lens and blog. The links are in my profile.Good Luck!!!!

Home based business??? -

Please don t criticize , im just looking for a little guidance.I am 5 1/2 months pregnant and had to quit my job because it was too stressful (it was basically a form of law enforcement in a nutshell). I was looking at starting a home-based business with my kind of skills (which i will list) as just a way to make a little extra cash, without spending a fortune to start a business. First, I am looking for something like that doesn t require me to hire anyone right now, doesn t require having to pay taxes for a small business, and no, i DO NOT want to take online surveys. I can sew, do very limited things with embroidery, I can paint but really don t have the patience. I have an Associates of Art in Studio Art degree. I was thinking about finding something I could sell for a small startup fee? Any help? Thank you!!!!

Good question and I have a good answer. If I was you I would minimize risk so maximize profits in order to re-invest.I had tried several online investments with no success due to so much work involved till I found this one:There��s a NEW SOFTWARE THAT GETS YOU 10,000 LEADS MONTHLY ON AUTO-PILOT And Makes Sales For You. * Personal selling, convincing, and explaining: ELIMINATED * Buying leads, cold calling, selling to your friends and family: ELIMINATED * Learning, studying, testing, applying and re-testing the never ending Web2.0 Internet marketing methods: NEVER AGAIN!Competitors are stunned and left scratching their heads as our members generate thousands of dollars a week - ON 100% AUTOPILOT!It��s only one month old and Im making so much money with almost zero risk involved. Please have a look:

I remember those days when i almost get mad to find one free survey site that really pay us without charging a fee. The fact is that there are so many survey sites in internet who actually charges a registration fee. I tell you what, run as far as you can, if they ask you money to join their survey site. Any legimate survey site, will not ask you money to join them They actually have to pay us if we join them some people do not understand this, and they pay and later they suffer and get frustrated. So is there really any Survey site that pays us? The Answer is, Yes. I am personally getting paid by a Survey site and please find the below website and register yourself for free,http://surveyadventure.freehostia.com/The best part is that, after you register and confirm the email sent, you will have a chance to win a car. The fun part is that they pay you money for playing games. And you get sometimes $50 for completing offers. Check out the offers area when you log in, you earn more. I personally get paid and you could trust them since they dont ask you any money, you could give a try, there is nothing to lose. I am sure you will be happy at the end of the week seeing money in your account. Have a great day ahead...!

Huge vegetable stickers for a supermarket? -

Hi, where can I buy ready-made big vegetables stickers/posters for a supermarket - to put it on the windows? Or do I have to have them printed out? Thanks!

you might want to talk to a local sign / banner shop to trade out for your needs as I spent a very long time looking for what is in stock and available for grocers, stores, retailers and all combinations including signs, banners, display cards etc. I found one place. I would think they need some competition and am now considering starting my own company to fill this obvious need.
