Well designed training programs serve as motivational tools, as well. Ensure that employees are sharp and capable by feeding their desire for learning and by relying on Best Practices in HR to provide the highest caliber training solutions.

Recruiting and Onboarding
Experts estimate that recovering from the wrong hiring decision can, by the time the dust settles, cost companies as much as three times that employee’s salary. And that’s just the financial impact. Company cultures and work teams can also feel the impact from a bad hire. Hire the right person the first time and offer them an onboarding process that will successfully and efficiently integrate them into your culture and start them on a path of dedication and productivity.

Employee Satisfaction and Retention
In order to be successful in today’s competitive environment, companies must be mindful of their employees’ opinions and attitudes. Employers must have the benefit of properly collected data and insightful analysis to build a culture that attracts and retains the kind of talent that brings value for your investment. Best Practices in HR works with the employer to uncover what motivates their employees to be productive and remain loyal, and advises on the best way to respond to challenges.

Policies and Procedures
It is imperative that employees know and clearly understand workplace policies and procedures, and employers must be consistent in their application. If not, employers are leaving themselves open to inefficiencies, even legal liabilities, and employee productivity suffers. Best Practices in HR protects both employers and their employees by removing uncertainty regarding employee expectations and organizational protocol with dissemination of this information via concisely written employee handbooks.

Performance Management
Solid performance management processes and benchmarks are an absolute requirement for meeting or exceeding organizational goals. Performance management systems must carefully align with the business’s strategic goals and serve as a meaningful development tool for employees in order to bring about measurable results. Best Practices in HR has the expertise you can rely on to build a solid performance management program that promotes growth for your employees and company.

Compliance and HR Audits
Left unexamined, company policies and practices might leave employers open to legal or regulatory liabilities that can be avoided through comprehensive expert examination. Regular application of compliance and HR audits help companies identify areas of legal risk, and can also provide employers with information about the competitiveness of its HR strategies.  Best Practices in HR audits give you the information you need to operate in the most efficient, legally sound manner.

Total Rewards Strategies and Compensation
A Total Rewards Program typically includes compensation, benefits, personal growth opportunities, and work-life balance components. Having a comprehensive, competitive total rewards program is essential for retention and recruitment. Equally essential is that employers know they are investing their resources in a program that has the right impact. Best Practices in HR is your expert resource when it comes to building your program in a way that generates value.

Workplace Investigations
When an informal or formal complaint is made, the employer must take immediate steps to remedy the situation. Investigations help companies identify and resolve internal problems before they become widespread.
