While you may do your best to spread seasonal cheer and appreciation, it’s important to keep in mind that this time of year is not all sparkles and snowflakes for your staff. Many of them will be trying to balance holiday schedules and family complications while feeling added stress due to end-of-year work tasks. Furthermore, absences and vacations often leave big holes in staffing right when the duties are most intense.

The traditional technology configuration for recruiting and hiring at the enterprise level is changing from being solely an applicant tracking setup to one with more analytics, automation and marketing tools, said Tim Sackett, HR thought leader and president of HRU Technical Resources, an engineering and design staffing firm based in Lansing, Mich. “In five years, what we consider to be an ATS [applicant tracking system] now will no longer exist in talent acquisition,” Sackett told a

We all understand the concept of a buyer’s market vs. seller’s market in real estate. Typically, one side or the other has an advantage as the housing market and/or economy shifts over time. The same is true for the workforce. At any given time, we’re either in an employer’s market or an employee’s market, and it shifts over time. During the recession, we saw a strong employer’s market, when companies could obtain and retain talent fairly easily at reasonable rates.

There's good news and bad news when it comes to business leadership development. The bad news is that traditional costly classroom training yields marginal results, if any. But the good news is that leadership development for small and mid-size businesses doesn't actually have to be expensive, nor do you need a big HR team to do it effectively. What Is Leadership Development?

With voluntary resignations at an all-time high and unemployment rates historically low, employee retention is a key objective for most HR organizations, and employee turnover is the single most prevalent HR metric. However, knowing your turnover rate does little to support strategic business plans. To achieve true insight, a more in-depth analysis of what’s causing turnover in different parts of the organization is required.

Candidates are researching organizations before they ever apply for a job opening. According to an article on Jibe, 76 percent of candidates do their own due diligence when conducting a job search. Instead of viewing this as a negative, organizations should use this as an opportunity to make sure the information out there is the information you want candidates to know about you and the jobs you offer.

Good management is important. We all know this. In fact, multiple studies have shown that not getting along with a manager is often the strongest influence on employee engagement—and eventual departure. Or, at least, that's what we thought. According to new research from IBM on why employees quit, the old HR adage "people don't leave companies, they leave managers" is being called into question.

While the Fair Labor Standards Act says that employers must keep records of all hours their employees work, it does not prescribe a specific timekeeping system or method. From that standpoint, the key is to choose a process that works for you and your company—as long as the information is complete and correct. For most companies, this involves some system of sign off before they submit an employee’s time card to payroll.

I’ve always said that one of the worst things organizations can do is ask employees for their feedback and then do nothing with the information. As a human resources professional, this is one of the major gripes that employees have with employee surveys. (Side note: The length of time it takes to hear the survey results is another.). The company wants employee feedback, so employees take the time to (honestly) complete the survey…and then nothing.

Is it terrible to admit that what immediately attracted me to Brené Brown’s new book “ Braving the Wilderness ” – other than the fact that it’s written by Brené – is the front cover? The backdrop of a beautiful, mountainous forest reminds me of my annual leaf-peeping trip to New Hampshire. We only stay in the mountains for a couple of days, but I always look forward to the trip as a peaceful retrieve from the noise and frenzy of the city.
