When dealing with the non-salary components of the total compensation equation for employees, two of the most important elements can be visualized as works-pay and perks-pay.

In his book From the Bureau to the Boardroom: 30 Management Lessons from the FBI, Dan Carrison eloquently draws attention to how we can learn from the FBI in managing change.

Some issues, though common, are rarely simple, and employee retention is one of those. I have heard quotes like “an employee doesn’t leave a company, but leaves his/her boss,” and while in some cases such an assertion may be true, in most cases it is not. This article focuses on discussing some aspects and concepts, as well as correlations between employee loyalty, employee retention, and the role that money (compensation) plays in attaining company objectives. + read more

In other words, it states your legal obligations as an employer and their rights as employees.

Workplaces throughout the country today are made up of four distinct generations – the Veterans (1922 – 1946), Boomers (1946 – 1963), Generation X (1963 – 1980), and Generation Y (1980 – 2000). Each of these generations has something to offer in the workplace, such as different values, needs and expectations. As an employer, if you are unable to properly manage and motivate your multigenerational workforce, your Company will soon face challenges in terms of retaining skilled workers and you will fail to leverage the true benefits of a multigenerational workforce.
