    2 ABFE - A Philanthropic Partnership for Black Communities The Exit Interview: Perceptions on Why Black Professionals Leave Grantmaking Institutions 3 PERCENT OF PHILANTHROPIC INSTITUTIONS ARE LED BY BLACK CHIEF EXECUTIVES. Introduction Most would agree that in recent years, the field of Over the last few years, ABFE and the philanthropy has begun to take seriously the need to increase diversity within its sector—and particularly Black Philanthropic Network—comprising among its leadership.

  • Employees Can Receive Unemployment Benefits After a Voluntary Quit Employees Can Receive Unemployment
    EMPLOYEES CAN RECEIVE UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS AFTER A VOLUNTARY QUIT EMPLOYEES CAN RECEIVE UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS AFTER A VOLUNTARY QUIT Many managers believe that all employee quits disqualify someone from collecting unemployment benefits, which is not always true. Careful reporting and documentation of voluntary quits is absolutely vital for effective control of unwarranted claims. It cannot be stressed enough that you should document the reasons why an individual says they have quit. • If you are unable to obtain a written resignation letter, you should document your conversation with the person about the reasons for leaving including the date and with whom they spoke. • If the individual does not provide much information other than quitting for “personal reasons,” it is okay to ask more questions to obtain additional details and information. • If you can get them to text or email you with their reasons for leaving, that communication can be saved and used as documentation. Most states expect that if an employee provided reasons for quitting, then the employer could have offered solutions rather than having the person quit. The burden is on the employer to propose options such as using vacation time, offering a leave of absence, changing work hours, or moving locations, to name a few. Just because someone did not ask for alternate arrangements does not mean the employer will win. Employers should document what was offered and reasons given as to why the offer was not accepted. This will show that the employer attempted to preserve the employment relationship. Next, it will be the claimant who needs to show good cause for refusing proposed options that could have remedied their situation.

(Hons), Dip.Teach. __________________________________________________________________________________ 2018 Exit Interview Report Hutt International Boys School April 2016 BACKGROUND Hutt International Boys School was interested in seeking the views of parents of departing students to determine a more comprehensive understanding of some of the school’s strengths and possible areas for future development. The principal saw benefit in the engagement of an external consultant to oversee the project. This report succeeded a similar survey completed in April 2016 The specific purpose of the interviews was to determine: o The programmes and practices that have worked well for students o The programmes and practices that have not been working well o The ways the school could improve its existing programmes and practices The school was asked to provide the names and contact numbers of all families of boys who had left the school at the end of 2017. The consultant was given a comprehensive spreadsheet of 104 boys in this category. Of these only 5 were recorded to have left before the end of Year 13 (this compares with 12 in 2016). In total 31 individual parents were contacted to express their views about the school. The interviews were conducted during February / March 2018 when a randomly selected parent of each boy was contacted by phone. Although it was mothers who usually responded to the interviews, there were also a good number of fathers interviewed. Phone calls ranged in length from 10 minutes to 45 minutes.
