Several years ago as Chief Learning Officer in an organization, I watched a new CHRO place "business partners" from her team in each large business unit. Some of them made a difference, some never really did. Even the CHRO struggled to gain legitimacy with the executive team on matters that didn't directly involve “people stuff." Why would HR need to be involved in something like an acquisition, except to review the employees benefits of the acquired company—right?

When a staffing agency and a client both exercise control over an employee, the staffing agency is usually considered the primary employer for Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) purposes, according to the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL). As one recent court decision shows, however, that’s not always the case. The 4th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals revived an employee’s FMLA lawsuit June 6, finding that she had provided strong evidence that the City of Alexandria, Virginia, was actually her primar

In this era of increasing instances of flexible work arrangements, many employers find that an increasingly larger percentage of their workforce is comprised of part-time employees, specifically. In fact, part-time might mean anything from a periodic five to ten hours per week up to thirty hours based on the feedback I receive from peers in HR who strive to compete for talent by offering work schedules that accommodate greater balance between work and personal life.

Misconceptions about company culture are abundant. As long as you define culture correctly, the benefits of strategizing the construct within your organization are clear. Rather than crafting a company culture full of carbon copy employees , your company culture should be open to interpretation. However, too much room for interpretation could lead to a chaotic and disorganized culture and, therefore, thwart productivity.

Author Emily Esfahani Smith explains why the pursuit of happiness backfires–and what we can do about it in the jobs we already have. For as long as human beings have existed, they’ve yearned to know what makes life worth living. Plato described man as a “being in search of meaning,” and the first great work of literature, the 4,000 year-old “Epic of Gilgamesh,” is a hero’s quest to live a meaningful life in the face of mortality.

Company culture and the employee experience are not easy to get right, so it can be tempting to address them in a reactive way: “Are employees asking for this?”. “Is this a priority right now?”. “Employees will tell us when something is wrong.”. “We have an open door policy.”. Problems will inevitably come up, and they will already have become pain points by the time you can address them with a reactive approach.
