Job titles are having a moment. Business analysts call themselves “data wranglers." Marketers are “brand defenders" and “growth hackers." Salespeople are “customer success managers,” and the list goes on. Human resources professions are no exception to this new-title takeover — and for good reason. HR roles are drastically different from what they were even 10 years ago, thanks to remote workforces, digitally savvy job applicants and constant co

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.
