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.

Writing a great job post is a feat on its own, but it turns out so is getting people to apply to it. Don’t think so? Currently, unemployment in the U.S. is at a post-recession low, hovering around 5% (down from nearly 10% in 2009). The situation in Europe is similar with unemployment figures down to 10% from above 12% in 2013. While this has brought on a lot of exciting work for recruiting teams and staffing agencies, it also means that the competition for talent is increasing.

The term productivity gets tossed around a lot. But do we really know what it means? Productivity is a state of producing something. It also refers to the effectiveness of an effort, as in the output versus input. Productivity is about outcomes. It’s about using minimum input to achieve maximum output. So productivity is important. I once worked for a company that tracked the productivity of each of their locations.

They consider what they ask, why they ask it and they engage in the practice of Q&A regularly. We believe that listening to employees and understanding them is far more valuable than telling them what to do.
