How to Make Money by Taking Pictures for Insurance Companies
Taking pictures for insurance companies has earning potential. If you can find the work. Check local newspapers and employment bureaus for openings. Call the human resources departments of area insurance companies to ask about available work behind the camera. Leave your contact information with these companies; they might need your services in the future.Identify the item you need to take pictures of. Make sure that you can get close to the object. It is better to have organized photos of the item than get the whole picture in the frame.
Once you get a job with a company, be diligent, professional and thorough. Take as many pictures as possible from each angle of the item. You do not know which part of the item will be damaged later, so taking pictures from all angles could help an insurance adjuster later on.
Keep your photographs in catalogs and/or digital files that are easily transferable with a flash drive or via the Internet, and that are easily categorized by date, time and item description. This way it will be easier to locate the ones needed for the insurance claim. It is also important that you keep your photographs in safe places. Store your pictures in a safety deposit box while you keep your digital duplicates safely with relatives and/or a password-protected file on your computer.
Be responsive to companies giving you work and you just might get more.

How to Calculate Vacation Time Earned in Work Businesses
Review personnel policies and union contracts to identify the annual vacation benefits for the job classification. The policy will typically state that a managerial employee with up to five years of service earns 10 days per year, with up to 15 years of service earns 15 days per year and after 15 years of service earns 20 days per year.
Identify the rate used by your company to calculate the total hours in a year. Most companies use 2,080---factored by multiplying 40 hours per week by 52 weeks---although some organizations use 2,087, which is the actual amount averaged over time, including leap years.
Verify if the vacation is paid only on hours actually worked, or if employees earn vacation time while on leave. In most cases, the employee will earn vacation while on vacation. In this case, you will not need to perform any additional calculation. However if the vacation is earned only on hours worked, deduct the amount of annual vacation from the total annual hours. For example, an employee earning 10 days vacation per year would deduct those 10 days---or 80 hours---from a total of 2,080 days in the year, to get a new figure of 2,000.
Multiply the number of days of vacation by eight to get the total annual amount in hours. Then divide that amount by 2,080---or adjusted amount, if vacation is only earned on hours worked---to get the hourly accrual rate. For example, an employee eligible to earn 10 days per year would calculate the hourly accrual as follows: 10 x 8 = 80; 80 / 2,080 = 0.038461538461538 per hour.
Calculate the accrual rate per day by multiplying the hourly accrual rate by 8. Obtain the weekly rate by multiplying the hourly accrual rate by 40, and get the biweekly pay period rate by multiplying the hourly rate by 80.
