From Susan M. Heathfield, your Guide to Human Resources

Vol. 12 No. 60 - ISSN: 1533-3698 May 7, 2011

Dear People:

Despite predictions of economic recovery, unemployment was 9% for April 2011. The total jobs gained were 244,000. In the private sector, 268,000 jobs were gained but government jobs dropped by 24,000. Yet, my mail box is still filled with PR pitches telling me that up to 75% of employees are planning to leave their current employer when the economy improves. For now though, I'd advise employers to develop and add in employee retention strategies before the predicted exodus begins. The employees you will lose, without these strategies, will be your best and most skilled. I have advice for employees, too. You want to hold on to the job that you have, until you find a better one. Have a great weekend.

Do you know that I write a new blog post every day? Check out the blog in the center column on my home page.

Please forward this newsletter, in its entirety, to your colleagues, coworkers and friends, because you want to add value to their work and lives.

Regards and wishing you and yours the best this weekend,

Susan


Sample Interview Questions About Decision Making

Want to assess your candidate's skill in decision making? You can ask these interview questions about decision making to determine his or her experience and competency in making decisions at work. Employers will want to ask interview questions to assess a candidate's decision making expertise for almost every job, but especially jobs that involve leading people.


What Is Employee Motivation - Really?

Want to encourage and inspire motivation? You need to know what motivation is - really. Motivation is an employee's intrinsic enthusiasm about and drive to accomplish activities related to work. Motivation is that internal drive that causes an individual to decide to take action. You can inspire motivation and tap into it. Find out how.


You Get What You Request and Reward

Performance management is the process of creating a work environment or setting in which people are enabled to perform to the best of their abilities. Performance management is a whole work system that begins when a job is defined as needed and expectations are clearly communicated to the employee. It ends when an employee leaves your organization. What's in between?


See Casual Dress for Work

Questions abound about casual dress at work. So, my work dress code and image collection galleries are popular on the site. This photo gallery shows appropriate attire for a casual work setting. In a casual work setting, the dress code allows just about any choice of outfit as long as it is appropriate for work.
