Re: New Employment Process

Congratulations on your new position and welcome to Fitness Fun & Games!

In order to determine your starting salary, I will need your transcript and verification of experience.

To be eligible for a raise, you must be registered for the MSDE Child Care Credential. (MSDE/divisions/child_care/credentials/mdcred.htm) In addition, you must be current in the continued training, required by MSDE. This information is included in your orientation.

You will find your orientation information on the website: staff.html.

You should start the orientation process promptly, so you will have it completed within 5 days of your start date. Allow about four hours to review all the materials online.

Complete the test as you go through the orientation materials, then bring it in to your Site Director. Use the orientation form’s checklist to make sure you are familiar with each item in the discussion list as it applies to the location(s) in which you will be working. When you complete these successfully, you will get a stipend included in your paycheck for the orientation completion.

Review the medical exam information, first, and arrange to have the form completed within a week. Your health practitioner may be able to complete this form based on your last visit to them. If they require a new exam for you, which is scheduled more than a week away, then you may submit an appointment note to me until you can get the form completed at the appointment. This form may be completed at a gyn visit, a clinic, a college health center or a private doctor’s office. If you need suggestions for a clinic with sliding scale fees, let me know. The TB test is not a requirement unless your health provider feels you are at risk and should have one.

Follow the directions to get your fingerprints done right away. If you work less than 6 months with FF&G, you will be responsible for paying this fee, up to $60.

usually about $50 - $60.
