Everything from cost per hire and time to fill to grievance trends and training effectiveness. I’ve always joked that HR closed the month similar to the accounting department. It took us days to prepare every report and distribute it.

Ask any business leader and they’ll tell you that a reduction in force, or a RIF, is one of the hardest activities to carry out. Often times good employees are hit by these decisions through no fault of their own, and the resulting morale issues can doubly affect the workplace in a negative way. That said, there are times when a RIF is an essential part of business continuity and operations.

She worked for 10 days, but has been out sick sporadically (with doctors notes) since then. When she has been in the office, she hasn't performed very well and we see that she is not a good candidate for this position. She uses her cell phone, works very slowly and shows no initiative.

But, if you dig back to the original, it appears that the author was referring more to the way mental and physical wellness are equally important and inextricably connected.

Why do New Year’s Resolutions so often fail? Because most resolutions don’t meet the criteria for a strong, achievable goal – a SMART goal: S = Specific. Goals should be defined and articulated with a clear end result in mind. M = Measurable. Every goal should be quantifiable. A = Attainable. Goals should be realistically achievable, split into manageable steps.

Until recently, the story of the modern workplace was dominated with the entitlement driven criticisms aimed at Millennials. The idea that a generation would have so many inherent accommodations and needs, holding captive a workplace that would have no other choice but to conform to their idealistic, entitlement-driven demands, has been something of a newsworthy accomplishment by this struggling segment of the almost working class.
