Im not an owner, so I dont know that the familial rules apply to employment.
The boss has given tentative approval to hiring my boy in a part time capacity. Im a literal slave driver, and cheap. Plus I want to guide my kid in how to be an employee thats worth a crap, or at least motivate him to never have to work for a bastard like me again. Mainly process data entry, basic troubleshooting assistance, learning basic network/hardware operations of ISP, technical grunt work. Minimal hours, preferably piece rate where possible, if Illinois allows that, or whatever the lowest pay Illinois allows for 16 year old, we could say hes a waitress and pay him waitress pay. Hes completed https://www.khanacademy.org/computing/computers-and-internet/xcae6f4a7ff015e7d:the-internet as a requirement to even have me ask you about it, and will be required to complete much of https://www.khanacademy.org/computing at a defined pace. An example task would be going through CnMaestro and naming each device (the last firmware overwrote device names not set into cnmaestro back to the default. This is a time milkable job so Id rather it be piece rate, but I dont know if you can mix piece rate and hourly wage. I dont know if minors can be paid piece rate. I dont know if a family member of a non owner can be paid family wage. I assume just cause hes my kid doesnt mean he is an employee I can beat, so ill have to have him clock out to beat him if he doesnt meet deadlines. I like the khan academy, its low level info, but gives progress to see what theyre doing. any of you guys ever hire employees kids as a favor? this is kind of a favor hire on the bosses part since we dont have an internship role. I assume we cant work his bones for nothing and call him an intern
