| Hello stacis:
Some companies don't have written policy. If you called, you could be right about what they'll tell you. If they do that kind of dance, I'll bet that means hubby WON'T be getting a check. If he is getting one, then there wouldn't be any reason for them to give you a runaround.
I'd call 'em up.
If he doesn't get a check when everybody else gets one, and they don't have, or refuse to provide you with written policy, he still may have some redress. That depends, of course, on many factors including the reasons for the bonus, how the bonus is calculated, who gets the bonus, how long he's been getting the bonus, and how they've handled this particular bonus situation before. Your husband probably isn’t the first case.
Ultimately, if it looks like he's being cheated, and the bonus is a lot of money, then you might seek legal counsel. A good lawyer might just be able to shake a check out of them with one threatening letter.
