A back office is a part of most corporations where tasks dedicated to running the company itself take place. The term comes from the building layout of early companies where the front office would contain the sales and other customer-facing staff and the back office would be those manufacturing or developing the products or involved in administration but without being seen by customers. Although the operations of a back office are usually not given a lot of consideration, they are a major contributor to a business. Examples of back-office tasks include IT departments that keep the phones and computers running (operations architecture), accounting, and human resources. These tasks are often supported by back-office systems: secure e-commerce software that processes company information (e.g. a database). A back-office system will keep a record of the company’s sales and purchase transactions, and update the inventory as needed. Invoices, receipts, and reports can also be produced by the back-office system. In banking, the back office includes a heavyweight IT processing system that handles position keeping, clearance, and settlement. In investment firms, the back office includes the administrative functions that support the trading of securities, including record keeping, trade confirmation, trade settlement, and regulatory compliance. If used in sales, the back office would include functions that fulfill customers’ orders and would usually include the duties involved in customer-support call centers. Back offices may be somewhere other than the headquarters of a company. Much of the time they are in areas and countries with cheaper rent and lower labor costs. Back office functions can be outsourced to consultants and contractors in any country. From Wikipedia under the

Q. includes cleaning with chemicals and taking digital x-rays (light radiation). I do have her doing 2 days of front office work. She has approached me and expressed concern about taking xrays and using chemicals, given this, it appears I will have to hire another person to take her 3 days, I will keep her two days working in the front and cut her 3 days working in the back since she feels it's not safe. How do I appraoch this legally? We are in California. Asked by Barry - Sun Feb 22 15:15:13 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. If your office is set up to code, she should not be getting any radiation at all from the x-rays. She should be able to continue that, the chemicals I am not sure about however. I would research this and if it is proven that it is indeed safe for pregnant women (with proper precautions) then she should expect to get paid only for the days she is up front, because it it her simply not wanting to be around them. If however it is recommended she not be around chemicals I am not sure how you stop paying her legally. I would contact the state board of health and try to get answers.
