If you’re from outside the US and unfamiliar with the term, “keeping up with the Joneses” is a term that focuses on everyone’s desire to compare themselves with their peers, even when it’s emotionally unhealthy. Instead of focusing on our own strengths, we look at what others have or can do, and we want that instead. There’s a business version of this, and we’ve all been guilty of it at one point or another.

It might be time to move “remote work opportunities” from your company’s Perks and Benefits column into Survival Strategies. America’s economic history has depended on mobility of workers and opportunities. People have followed jobs out west across the country, from the farms and countryside into the cities, and even from city to city. But in recent years, even the job-dense cities are no safe bet; in the majority of metro areas today, more businesses are closing than new ones are opening.

The talent shortage is real. The 2017 Staffing and Recruiting Opportunity report from Bullhorn found that for 61 percent of organizations, trouble finding employees is their biggest barrier to growth. But maybe the issue isn’t with talent; it’s who were directing our talent acquisition efforts towards. There are definitely certain types of candidates who might be trickier to reach.

On November 8, 2016, San José voters passed the Opportunity to Work Ordinance. Under the ordinance, employers with 36 or more employees are required to offer additional work hours to existing, qualified part-time employees before hiring new employees, including subcontractors or the use of temporary staffing services. Covered employers must offer additional hours to qualified part-time employees before hiring new employees.

by Jennifer Ardery, Senior Product Marketing Manager, Kronos. Employee burnout. Everyone’s heard of it and most of us have probably complained about feeling burnt out at one point or another. How can we not? For many, the pressure to succeed at work has never been higher. This is true for both hourly and salaried employees, as the opportunity to unplug has become increasingly rare.

I know human resources compliance issues aren’t the sexiest thing to talk about but, they’re a necessary part of HR. In fact, compliance is a part of any business. Even if a compliance issue decreases, we need to know details so we can stop devoting resources to it. And chances are all compliance won’t be eliminated. The sooner we realize that the goal isn’t to make compliance go away – it’s to learn the best way to manage it – the better off we will be.

International Women’s Day celebrates the social, economic, cultural, and political achievements of women. It’s also a global call to action to accelerate gender equality in all areas of a woman’s life. This year, a new strike movement called “ Day Without A Woman ” — which urges women in the US to take the day off from paid or unpaid labor and avoid shopping for the day — will coincide with International Women’s Day.

In 2007, Sarah Feingold had just graduated from Syracuse University Law School. While in school, she'd petitioned to take a graduate-level metal smithing class around her passion outside of law: jewelry-making. That's when she discovered Etsy —an eBay-type, startup marketplace for handmade goods. Today, the company has nearly 1000 employees and $2.39 billion in revenue.

Running a business is difficult, especially for startups. Depending on the type of business you run, it could take years to become profitable. Restaurants, for example, have to be open for an average of 4-5 years before they turn a profit. For them, budget is king.

In the U.S., March is recognized as Women’s History Month. The theme this year is women in labor and business, so I wanted to share a few interesting statistics I found, courtesy of the U.S. Census Bureau. As of July 2014, women outnumber men in the U.S. – 162M to 157M. The percentage of social scientists who are women is 63 percent. Of the firms in the U.S., women own 35.8 percent of them.

“Now, more than ever, the corporate strategy for large companies hinges on the people strategy.”. This was a key takeaway from a summit of HR leaders and Boston Consulting Group (BCG) experts, who met to discuss the future of HR and the trends shaping it. It goes without saying that great HR functions are strategic: they play a vocal role in critical business decisions and control a significant portion of a company’s expenses.

If you measured every single metric within recruiting, chances are you would spend most of your time measuring recruiting instead of actually recruiting. Measuring recruiting activities is important, however, there are reports and metrics that are more important than others. Keeping a tab on the important metrics allows recruiters to stay informed on what is being done right and what needs to be fixed.

Please. I’m begging you. Don’t run your own employee engagement survey. If you are currently doing so, please consider my admonition below. Of course, as someone who facilitates an employee engagement survey , I’m biased—but that doesn’t mean I’m wrong. The problems with running an internal survey are significant enough that I consider it a dangerous option for companies who want to genuinely understand employee well-being and engagement.

There are many reasons that organizations choose not to craft a core set of values. Sometimes, senior management doesn’t think core values are a big deal because they think every employee already knows how they are supposed to act to succeed. Or, key employees may have had a bad experience with values at a previous organization that were essentially meaningless.

With unemployment decreasing and the challenges finding qualified candidates increasing, it’s sometimes amazing to me that employees have to deal with these manager situations. But they do. I have a question and am hoping you can provide some advice. I overheard my supervisor speaking ill (very ill) of me and other team members. She also took complete credit of a situation that I handled with letting an employee, where I coached them on ways to improve their work.

Don’t Let Scheduling Barriers Stop You From Building Great Company Culture. When your entire team works a traditional 9-5, you know when to schedule professional development and team-building opportunities. But what if you manage teams that work round-the-clock hours or that cover different portions of the day, like customer support, IT, doctors or nurses, or police officers?

The Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey for December 2016, released by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) in February, reported there were 1.4 million more quits than layoffs and discharges for the month. These numbers mirror the November 2016 report, which also determined that the difference in number of quits—defined by the BLS as “generally voluntary separations initiated by employees”—and number of layoffs and discharges has increased since April 2010.
