There’s a reason I call Friday articles “distractions”. It’s because after a hectic week, we need a little distraction. And what better way to add some levity to a busy week than with a little humor. But not all distractions are good ones. Some distractions prevent employees from focusing on their work. This can impact safety, quality, and as today’s Time Well Spent from our friends at Kronos point out, customer service.

In the global economy, we find employees working in various locations. Whether employees work at the corporate headquarters, from home, or at a client business site, they all need to accurately and efficiently track and report their work hours. Traditional paper-based systems are inaccurate and also require additional resources to enter data into the payroll.

Conversation Matters

FEBRUARY 16, 2018

The metaphors we use when we talk about work have an impact on how work is designed in organizations. The predominant metaphor is “labor as a resource” as in Human Resources. That metaphor results in those who design how organizations function limiting their conception of workers as a means to an end. There is no question that workers in an organization are the means through which an organization accomplishes its goals.

As Human Resources leaders, we care deeply about leadership competencies in two ways: - The first, is putting forth the effort to identify, develop, and implement them. - The second, which is BY FAR the one we immediately forget, is to hold our leaders accountable to live up to those competencies.

Bias continues to be a big topic in diversity and inclusion, but there is more to culture change and changing mind-set than taking a test on bias. While understanding bias is one key to diversity and inclusion practices and behaviors, it can be used as a buzz word, “trend or flavor of the month,” or an academic polemic stuck in neuroscience conversations.

Many organizations and survey software providers use the terms “employee pulse surveys” and “always-on survey” (or variations of always-on, such as “continuous feedback” or “real-time feedback”) interchangeably. While this makes sense on the surface, pulse surveys are technically more similar to annual employee engagement surveys than to true always-on surveys.

HR professionals are all too familiar with the McDonnell-Douglas burden-shifting standard for establishing discrimination from circumstantial evidence. Under the standard, an employee presents a prima facie (minimally sufficient) case that he belongs to a protected class and suffered an adverse action. The employer then presents a legitimate nondiscriminatory reason for its action, and he in turn tries to prove its stated reason is merely a pretext (false excuse) for discrimination.
