Determine the Right Employee Salary Increase Using People Analytics

Visier

According to Aon’s 2017 U.S. salary increase survey , more than two-thirds of employers were taking some kind of action to increase merit pay differentiation, with 40% reducing or eliminating increases for lesser performers.

The business world today really needs a lot of super empowered and hopeful employees, given that 85% of them are currently either lacking in engagement or actively disengaged. And gamification can hopefully help businesses motivate and empower a mostly listless workforce to reverse nearly $7 trillion in lost productivity. .

The Rules Do Apply: Navigating HR Compliance

Speaker: Ann Meyers Piccirillo

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.

Making the Case For—and Against—Hiring Overqualified Candidates

Cornerstone On Demand

We've all seen it before—you get an application from a candidate that is simply overqualified for the position that she's seeking. After all, why would an applicant with over twenty years of experience be vying for a mid-level role? But here's the problem with calling someone "overqualified."

DecisionWise

A few days ago, Jordan Yadoo at Bloomberg reported that employees will give up big pay raises in exchange for job perks. The reported statistics were eye-catching, with the headline teasing that “Americans Are Willing to Forgo a 56% Pay Raise for Best Job Perks.” At the end of the day, I agree with Mr. Yadoo’s findings, but not his headline. Employees do not give up pay for perks!

Culture is a marathon, not a sprint. But in recent years, a trend has developed around treating culture as a commodity — one that can be purchased and distributed. Like a well-stocked mini kitchen and weekly happy hours. In many ways, it makes sense to the C-Suite. Competition for top talent has become increasingly fierce, and cool perks and rewards , high salaries, and unlimited PTO seem a simple way to win people over.

my employer fined me $90 for being late

Ask a Manager

A reader writes. My company has a ridiculous late fine policy: you will be fined $2 for every minute, starting from 9:01 a.m. So if you come in at 9:05 a.m., that’s $10 you gotta pay up in cash. (This is not somewhere where down-to-the-minute coverage would be essential. It’s just typical deskbound, back-end work. I can see why the receptionist who gets the calls will need to be there smack on the dot, but the rest of us — not really.).
