For organizations with seasonal fluctuations in business, hiring temporary workers is often a necessity. Regardless of when they need additional help -- whether it’s over the holidays or during temperature-dictated cycles (think beaches and amusement parks in the summer and skiing and snowboarding in winter) – everyone needs employees they can rely on. Temporary employee” should never be synonymous with “low-caliber employee.”

The statistic is nearly ten years old, yet so believable and supported by far newer surveys. That’s right, even in a world where we can accept our operating systems are outdated in less than a year, we somehow cannot seem to update our business or organizational processes successfully or unscathed. Chalk it up to human nature’s hatred of change or downright obliviousness, but don’t kid yourself: we needed to master change management and we needed to yesterday.

We are a staffing company that employs W-2 contractors. We are trying to determine exempt vs. nonexempt status for an employee. The job is a Senior Systems Engineer. Utilizing an FLSA checklist, he meets the criteria for an exempt employee. However, he is not a salaried employee. Does the fact that he is paid hourly automatically place him in the non-exempt category? Thank you for your inquiry regarding exempt vs. nonexempt status under the FLSA.

From the time an applicant applies to the moment they receive the job or are not selected, the candidate experience should always be at top of mind for recruiters, interviewers and hiring managers. Ensure the interviewer is prepared so they can provide a seamless experience and represent the brand well. It’s also best practice to prepare applicants, as well.

It’s five answers to five questions. Here we go…. Can we push a retiring employee out early? I work for a small organization (only 13 employees) that is an at-will employer. Even though we are small, we have endured more than our share of turnover in the last few years (i.e., retirements, resignations).

Leading volunteers is not always an easy job. Unlike employees, they are hard to fire and they may or may not be motivated enough to give their best efforts. But sometimes the magic happens, and you get the best people with the best skills supporting you in a volunteer capacity. That’s what happened last week, and I want to share some of the lessons for the rest of you.

For organizations, investing in employee happiness is just good business. Companies with happy employees outperform their competition by 20%. One out of every three employees would give up $5,000 in salary to be happier at work. And in the present era of job-hopping millennials and employee retention challenges, people do better work for longer when they’re happy. But somewhere along the line, companies systematized the idea of happiness too much.

Remote meetings can be terrible. They’re the “chores” of the workplace. Whether it’s technology crashing or a user not being able to connect, you’ve probably been in a video chat that you considered a total waste of time. On the upside, meetings are helpful for teams to stay connected, brainstorm, improve productivity , and get help with what they’re working on. But only if held properly.

It’s four answers to four questions. Here we go…. Was my vacation request unreasonable? Last month, I submitted a request for a single week’s vacation with approximately two months of lead time (submitted in April for June vacation), and was told that they were not willing to take someone off another task for that long and that I could take two days off. We are a very small company, and I understand that this would possibly be hard, but I am still unhappy about the decision.

There is a classic exercise often done at a mentoring program launch in which participants are asked to think of the best mentor they have had and why. The reason this exercise is powerful is because it helps participants uncover the golden truth of mentoring firsthand: Mentoring is about connection. Your favorite mentor may have challenged you, encouraged you, or helped you through a difficult situation.

One of the words I’m starting to hear at conferences and in business conversations is “intentional.” It means, of course, to do something on purpose or to be deliberate. Professionals are talking about having intentional discussions within the business or to implement something intentionally. While on one hand you might question, “Shouldn’t everything be done intentionally?”, I think the addition of the word intentional is to add emphasis.

The caricature of a Valley Girl is comical, but analogies showing how one thing is “like” another are vital tools for social and organizational change, especially when it comes to work and HR.

While some people might read the title of this post and ask, “Really?!” The truth is “Really.” Employees often get very nervous when asked to a private meeting with human resources or their supervisor. And the employee wants someone there for comfort…as evidenced by this reader note. Can you have someone sit in on a meeting between you and your supervisor? The situation is that an employee asked if her mother could attend the meeting, fearing that she would be in a hostile situation.

Overtime pay has long been a hot-button topic for employers and employees alike. Whether for or against overtime pay, both sides can agree that the income limits that qualify employees for overtime pay haven’t kept up with inflation over the years. The last income maximum threshold was set more than 10 years ago in 2004. On Tuesday, the Labor Department passed new regulation that increased the cutoff for overtime pay from $23,660 to $47,476, making 4.2
