According to our research, the majority of today’s job seekers aren't turning to staffing agencies for their next career move. In fact, only 18% of respondents said they think of a staffing agency when they look for a new job. Your first thought might be that this is due to bad experiences or lack of results. But in reality, it's due to job seekers lack of awareness of both of your agency and the jobs you can provide. .

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

You guys know I work from home so it probably won’t come as a surprise that I’m constantly looking for ways to exercise and stay active. I go to Pilates a couple times a week and I have a treadmill desk at home. But as much as I like the treadmill desk, it’s hard for me to do some things on it (like typing) and I find that I have to allocate at least 30 minutes when I’m going to be on it – away from my “real” desk.

We all know cash is a great way to reward people for their hard work, but there are other simple things you can offer as a company to get your employees motivated. In retail where the workforce is 50% part-time and 95% hourly, organizations are constantly trying to come up with fun ideas to engage and motivate employees. Dealing with a diverse population where people are driven by different things can make it challenging to use a one-size-fits-all model.

Appreciating employees is hard work, if you want to do it right. Genuine appreciation should look and feel personal and it should reflect the way that someone’s work and dedication has made an impact on the workplace, on their coworkers and on the projects that have been delivered. As the number of online searches for employee appreciation ideas that don’t involve money rises from year to year, I can’t help but wish that these managers would also try and find authentic ways to recognize and rewa

I’ve worked with a lot of leaders. A few are card-carrying members of The Bad Boss Diaries but most of them are decent people. In the workplace, I’ve found that even good people sometimes make really stupid leadership decisions. And this sucks the humanity out of the workplace.

Whether or not incentive programs are effective has been a long standing question, spanning multiple academic disciplines.

Everyone likes perks, and today, businesses are waking up to that fact. Many are offering “in-house” bonuses like fully stocked fridges, free gym passes and employee relaxation spaces with Ping Pong or Foosball tables. And while these benefits bring a sort of “laid back” vibe, this type of workplace environment isn’t for every business.

You likely only included basic starter polices – code of conduct, anti-discrimination efforts and termination procedures. However, if you’ve experienced company growth or management challenges in the past few years, these policies may not be enough.

I’m not interested in doing a post-mortem on projects, policies or relationships. In theory, it makes sense to take stock of an event when it’s over. It sounds healthy to compile a list of “lessons learned.” But you know what happens with a post-mortem? Not much. You make a list, file it away, and forget about it. Then you’re surprised when you fail again.
