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

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.

The following is a multi-part series of micro-blogs, guest authored by Annemarie Verwaaijen, MSc, MBA, Vice President, Global Head of Pay Services for S&P Global, and a 3Sixty Insights Executive Council member.  A Guide to Leveraging Payrolls Rich Data It is easy to become overwhelmed with so much data available in payroll. The easiest place to begin, and where most companies will start, is by counting the errors or defects. Next, ensure that everyone agrees on how defects are defined; establishing this baseline is essential for consistency. Other elements you can report on when you are starting your journey are just some examples, as they will differ by company. Defects (employee paid wrong, and you need to make a correction) Pre-defect (the payroll team discovered […]

The following is the first in a series of micro-blogs, guest authored by Annemarie Verwaaijen, MSc, MBA, Vice President, Global Head of Pay Services for S&P Global, and a 3Sixty Insights Executive Council member.  Is it Time For Payroll to Make its Own Table? I read a statement this morning: “I am not waiting to get a seat at the table; I am building my own table.” I commented as I believe that is a very powerful statement.

Guest LinkedIn Live: Blueprint for keeping your organization agile

  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 […]

Compliance at the Core: Behind the Scenes at deel

This year, I’m spending more time working with vendors across the HCM technology and services marketplace to understand the key trends and learn more about the modern solutions and innovations focused on advancing how compliance is managed across the HR spectrum. The struggle is real. In HR buyer research, compliance bubbles up consistently as a top challenge for practitioners and a leading driver for HR and payroll-managed services adoption as regulations evolve, introducing new complexities at an accelerated pace. Over half of employers cite mounting concern for solving skills gaps locally and struggling to attract top talent as key obstacles to business transformation and remaining competitive.  These obstacles lead to organizations of all sizes commonly engaging talent beyond their home borders and seeing their footprints […]
