Organizations with well-defined social responsibility programs can improve their brand reputation, attract more job candidates and customers, and increase employee engagement. Corporate social responsibility (CSR) programs arose from the understanding that businesses function as a part of society—the success of each deeply affects the other. The importance of corporate social responsibility has increased in recent years, in large part due to the growing influence of millennials.

I learned this week that one of my former bosses nominated me for a Young Professional Award for the work I have done over the past few years, both with this site and within the community where I live. I was (and still am) humbled by that support. As far as I can tell, I’m the only HR guy in the running, and I have until July 1st to gather a few votes in the competition.

Want to negotiate with travel vendors, but hate to haggle? Here’s the secret: Let your travel and entertainment (T&E) expense data do the work for you. No, the data won’t come to life and start wheelin’ and dealin’ on your behalf. It will, however, help you to build a business case so compelling that it will be difficult for travel vendors to deny you a deal.

In case you haven’t heard, there is a major scuffle happening in the HR/payroll industry that ultimately led one party to file a defamation suit against the other. While these two companies fight it out in the press and the courtroom, one of the primary – and extremely important – issues at the heart of the squabble is about security and employee data privacy.

The most engaged… are first in line. Recently I read a blog post about email marketing and delivery, and that line struck me. Stick with me, because I think there’s an intriguing question it brings up. People that run companies and blogs often use delivery services to communicate with customers and readers.

Tomorrow I’m heading to Las Vegas. I’m attending the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Annual Conference. This isn’t my first SHRM Annual – in fact, my first SHRM conference (more than a few years ago) was also in Las Vegas. At that time, a small earthquake happened – let’s hope history doesn’t repeat itself. The reason I’m writing this post is because last year I attended a blogging conference and, during the event, I met someone who posted an introduction on her blog.

Any business owner will tell you that it's difficult to make a profit when your employees aren't at work. Research proves this. A recent study found that the cost of a single employee's absenteeism can cost a company as much as $3,600 per year, according to HR.com. As an employer, how can you minimize the effects an employee’s leave of absence can have on your business, while still providing the time away from work your employees need?
