Workforce Software Guest Blog: Toolkit for Improving the Deskless Worker Employee Experience

Posted on by

The Growing Importance of Employee Experience in Recent Years Delivering a superior employee experience (EX) has been a front-and-center topic in HR circles. The reasons are straightforward and include outcomes such as improved employee productivity and retention, as well as a stronger employer brand for attracting top talent. These significant business benefits are being enjoyed by enterprises across industries and geographies when best-fit employee experience programs are in place, extending to predominantly deskless worker industries such as manufacturing, natural resources, public sector, transportation, and retail. The “best-fit” employee experience program encompasses more than the unique operating aspects of a particular industry as businesses within the same vertical can still have very different EX-related challenges and results. This is the case even when their respective compensation, benefits, learning and career growth […]

Guest LinkedIn Live: Blueprint for keeping your organization agile

Posted on by

  Steve Goldberg, HCM research & advisory, and Jennifer Borun, senior director, analyst relations and strategic engagement of Cornerstone, sat down on LinkedIn Live to discuss how to guide your organization through solving future problems and succeeding in a volatile market. Take one look at the news (or your LinkedIn feed), and you’ll see a lot of talk about market changes and economic shifts. There’s fear and uncertainty about what’s to come. Steve explained that unpredictability and volatility are relative concepts, but the landscape of a pandemic has given these terms a tangible depth and taken uncertainty to a new level. That level, Steve said, is “a period of max fluidity.” Fancy term! But what is “max fluidity”? Think of the supply chain disruptions currently […]

Posted on by

What You Need to Know Enterprises have choices when it comes to vendors that offer a single-platform solution and promise the ability to hire better candidates faster. By now, most have realized the value of investing in integrated platforms, software and apps to advance HR functions. An enterprise’s platform could boast all the bells and whistles — but is it integrating with its tools exactly the way the company needs to meet its human capital management (HCM) objectives? Are its systems leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) to enable more holistic recruitment processes? If not, how does a business embark on seeking, evaluating, selecting and implementing the right solution that can integrate with its existing components? 3Sixty Insights explores how file sharing provider Box embarked on a […]

Case Study Vignette: Harri – Helping a Private Equity Fund Protect and Grow the Value of Its Restaurant Investments

Posted on by

Private equity can be a tough business. So is the restaurant industry. Imagine combining the two. A private equity firm first and foremost must have wealth. And it must be adept at conserving and building that wealth. Those are the main criteria for success. As for running a restaurant, the margins can be thin. This is why, for any restaurant, among the most time-consuming activities (and greatest operational costs) are those associated with employing people effectively and compliantly. Scheduling is a big one here. Putting together employees’ hours is another. With non-exempt staff’s fluctuating hours and toggling between workweeks considered part-time and full-time under the law, benefits administration can be a big challenge, too. At a restaurant, these operational costs have a way of easily […]

Research Note: Experienced People Leader Chooses Ceridian Dayforce for HR Transformation

Posted on by

What You Need to Know Key to the long-term success of any business-to-business vendor are its advocates out in the field: professionals who insist on attesting to their positive experience working with any particular vendor and that vendor’s product. For providers of cloud software for human capital management, when these testimonials encompass the intertwinement of their technology with the aspirations of exemplary people leaders, the stories are especially powerful. Whenever HCM software transforms HR, lifting it out of the doldrums and frustrations of out-of-control operational HR and into a new place where people leaders have the administrative part of their charter tamped down and can indeed lead people, it’s a story that demands to be told. In the spirit of amplifying one such testimonial, this […]

Immedis: Memoirs From the Outside Looking In

Posted on by

“The days are long, but the years are short.” ― Gretchen Rubin, New York Times Best-Selling Author Many of us have heard some rendition of this saying. Plenty of us have thought the idea with no prompt whatsoever. The version above encapsulates the concept as good as any and is attributable to acclaimed author Gretchen Rubin, whose work I have not read. Surely her books must be profound. What else is profound? The trajectory of Immedis is. Sometimes, the people you meet when you’re in the thick of starting something new leave an impression that sticks with you. I stopped short of titling this blog post “A Love Letter to Immedis,” because it’s not quite this. Plus, it would be a little bit weird. But […]

Case Study: Rutherford Investment Company Partners with isolved to Evolve from Operational to Strategic HR

Posted on by

What You Need to Know We often discuss digitization as a way to facilitate operational HR—the nitty gritty fundamentals, the necessities, the boxes that need to be checked. The assumption inherent in these conversations is that greasing the path for these compliance-oriented tasks will free up time for strategic HR, reducing administrative tedium in favor of higher-level, people-oriented efforts. This journey to HCM maturity is a long series of steps, each at once meaningful and small. It is a path to success we’ve seen unfold time and time again with users of isolved. Put these small steps aside, however. Consider also that it’s so often the small things that define the employee experience, always a priority no matter where an organization is in its HCM […]

Analyst Insight: Insperity Empowers People Leader at CoreRx to Demonstrate HR’s Strategic Value to the Organization

Posted on by

Six years ago, Kevin Rierson became the very first HR person at CoreRx. In business for 11 years at the time, CoreRx, which now employs approximately 200 people (with some seasonal ebb and flow), is what’s known in the pharmaceutical industry as a contract manufacturing organization (CMO). This means it formulates drug delivery methods, such as tablets and capsules, and moves them through the manufacturing process to be cleared and approved by the FDA. Before Rierson joined CoreRx as the HR director, HR at the company fell under the authority of an “accidental HR person” — in the parlance of human capital management (HCM), someone with another, official role who also happened to be responsible for tactical, operational HR. It’s easy to imagine the result […]

Anatomy of a Decision: Frontline Employee Experience Platform Harri Drives Operational and Financial Excellence for Jersey Mike’s Subs

Posted on by

What You Need to Know At what point does a business pause to consider the costs of managing HR processes on paper and in digital spreadsheets? Where does the push come from to trigger an analysis of manual processes vs. automation? In many cases, manual processes work just fine and a ‘don’t fix it if it ain’t broke’ perspective leaves those processes neglected until a problem arises. Because something is working, however, doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s efficient. What if transitioning human capital management (HCM) processes from manual to automated can save a significant amount of time, money, and frustration for your business? HCM automation enables swift execution of scheduling and recruiting processes that currently consume large chunks of time for businesses. Automation alleviates complex […]
