Outsourcing does not pose many risks. Theyre so many benefits of outsorucing from avoiding legal risk to reducing costs on hiring and training and reduces the risk of data entry errors and much more.

I agree that this trend will continue in the future because of technology. One of 2020’s HR trends is incorporating more AI tools into everyday operations for better efficiency and workflow. With this companies who take this approach see reduction in time to hire, and improvement in the candidate experience

Some of the reasons organizations opt to outsource all of most HR functions because it reduces the lets the owner focus more on the company (allows more time and effort to spend on your business), and reduces the cost (about 20 to 30% compared to keeping all of your HR functions).

yes i feel if not every then most negotiations are barely a win win for each side. There always have to be some type of sacrifice. Thats a great point on what happens when the employees are split on what they want. I didnt think about that.

Yea I agree when you say the employer doesn’t show care. I felt bad about Becki Jacobson because she had been working for crystal sugar company since the age of 18, and just to be treated like that would anger me so bad.

It can go either way but I believe with collective bargaining, it can get the job done sometimes. Collective bargaining is when management and labor are required by law to negotiate wages, hours,…[Read more]

I completely forgot about time based pay. I agree with this method. The fact that employees are paid per hour with a set number of hours in a week. It also creates flexibility when it comes to work schedule’s being changed around.

I agree with having a monthly performance evaluation! Having this makes sure employees are on track and theyre skills are in the level that it needs to be. I also feel this makes the employees more focused.

I barely received positive feedback in one of my jobs and i just didn’t feel valued at all or at times would question myself. And If I did received positive feedback as you said it felt vague or just said without meaning. Btw love reading your post, well informed and detailed!

Also as Heaven stated, taking that negative feedback and turning it into a positive. And congratulations on the certification. Awesome, keep up the great work!
