Workforce Software Guest Blog: Operational Communications and Deskless Workers

While psychologist Abraham Maslow’s widely known ‘Hierarchy of Needs’ framework introduced to the world exactly eighty years ago has received some critique over the years—mostly related to research methodologies—it continues to be a hugely popular tool in many settings. The reason is simple. The framework or pyramid universally resonates, largely due to being rooted in extreme common sense, contributing to its broad applicability. This commonsense foundational principle is that one cannot successfully pursue many avenues for personal growth and enjoy sustained feelings of value (i.e., worth, accomplishment, self-actualization) without the satisfaction of basic human needs. This includes having adequate food, shelter and medical needs addressed, feeling physically safe—and after that, having a more emotional, heartfelt connection to other people. That human interaction is often based […]

Decusoft Guest Blog Article: Compensation Planning: Where Complexity Meets Opportunity

Posted on by

The context Anyone leading a compensation team or function is keenly aware that ‘comp planning’ activities can take the most time, and surrounding complexities can be plentiful. This is largely due to featuring the most ‘what if’ iterations, and involving the most reviewers, approvers, and communications protocols, all governed by extreme data confidentiality and sensitivity. These aspects speak to process complexity, and that’s before we bring in many other dimensions. These include new or changing comp elements, eligibility rules, salary increases and total comp guidelines, and the processes needed for collecting, matching, and incorporating market pay rates. Additionally, adjustments to market data guidance might be necessary to reflect the pressing or urgent needs of a business, such as when internal/external skills shortages exist that require […]

Insperity Blog – 5 ways a PEO can serve as a strategic partner for midsize businesses

Posted on by

There are many misconceptions about professional employer organizations (PEOs). Often, one of them is that PEOs only deliver value for smaller businesses. But what about PEOs for midsize businesses with operational challenges? These business owners may ask: What value does a PEO bring to midsize businesses? How can a PEO serve as a strategic partner for growing businesses? How can midsize businesses benefit from PEOs? Once businesses reach the 50-employee threshold, expand into other states and municipalities or hire remote employees who reside elsewhere, they can be subject to more legal and regulatory complexities. Other challenges of growing organizations can also impede, such as business owners’ focus on serving customers and not having sufficient time to allocate toward HR responsibilities.

Join 3Sxity Insights’ Jennifer Dole, along with Kelly Cartwright Vice President of Global Talent Acquisition of Splunk and Clarissa Peterson President and CEO of Ohana HR, LLC as they discuss HR Technology in pact to helping drive gender equality. Secession Description:  In recent years, the overall state of women’s employment has seen improvements. Yet, despite organizations’ increased focus on gender equality, the earnings gap is real and women are still paid less than men. Occupational segregation – in select fields such as retail, healthcare and education – contributes to gender wage gaps, especially for women without a college degree. Women also still shoulder a disproportionate amount of caregiving responsibilities, many without protections such as paid leave that preserve their career paths. In this closing keynote, […]
