Employee relations’ refers to the collective relationships that an employer has with its employees. These relationships may be with the entire employee group, or with smaller groups within it, but they are always with groups of employees.
Employee relations is about the relationship between employees and employer that is conducted through communication with trade unions, staff associations
or representatives of employees, or directly with groups of employees.
The relationship an individual has with the employer, for example by agreeing, as an individual, to attend work and to be bound by disciplinary rules, is not employee relations’.
Our approach
We believe in a dynamic approach. Employee relations needs managing. We are neither pro- nor anti-union. However, if a trade union is an obstacle to a client’s objectives, we reckon it is better to make plans to overcome this than to accept the status quo. So we may recommend that the company set up other channels of communication; or reduce the influence of the union; or
enhance one union at the expense of another. If no union is recognised, we also draw up plans that promote the client’s objectives. This may mean winning the support of the workforce through initiatives to promote a helpful
dialogue, for example.
There are statutory requirements for collective action, such as to consult about redundancy, or to provide information. We ‘manage’ these activities, to retain control of the agenda, information and timescales, rather than passively apply the legislation.
We reckon that efforts to talk to employees and tell them about the business are likely to help, rather than hinder, productivity.

Tricey’s Catering currently does not have a specific plan of action for dealing with disciplinary actions of staff members. With the continual growth of the company and staff the company has faced the problem of personal responsibility of work produced and following company policies. To be able to resolve these growing concerns within the company problems must be detailed, identified and defined; and the Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumers Services regulations must be followed, and a resolution must be provided.
Currently, Tricey’s Catering’s policy for kitchen etiquette, behavior, personal hygiene, and other work related issues are resolved with penalizing actions. However, even though this is stated on pages 20-22 of the employee handbook, there is no set system for managers to adhere to when dressing these issues. Our current actions start with verbal counseling, this method is has proven effective, however in business documentation of all infractions is of the utmost importance.

The document then discusses Maslow's hierarchy of needs and how work can fulfill physiological, safety, belonging, esteem, and self-actualization needs. It also discusses developing the organizational purpose and objectives, defining tasks and jobs, establishing the firm's identity, directing and controlling work, management styles, and the importance of communication and feedback.
What is the Real Cost of Non-Compliance?ConvergePoint
Organizations that do not put enough of an emphasis on the employee education and training for compliance will likely experience these pitfalls. Here we will demonstrate the loaded implications for the three most crippling effects of absent employee compliance education.
Grandview Global Financial Services,Inc and Meddevco Co. Case StudyRobiul Awal Tuhin
This document contains a case study and questions about implementing global human resource systems at a large multinational company called Grandview Global Financial Services. It discusses implementing common global processes for performance management, compensation, benefits, and an HRIS system. Key steps discussed include evaluating current systems, designing frameworks that integrate legal and cultural differences, testing implementations, and ongoing review and communication with stakeholders.
This document provides an overview of different types of incentive compensation systems, dividing them into three main categories: individual incentives, group incentives, and organizational incentives. It describes several common individual incentive plans such as piece rate systems, differential rates, standard hourly rates, production bonuses, commissions, bonuses, awards, and merit pay. The key factors in determining the appropriate incentive system include whether performance is measurable at the individual or group level and ensuring clear links between employee performance and rewards.
1. External factors - The state of the economy, unemployment rate, labor market conditions, and other macroeconomic trends impact the availability and quality of candidates for open positions. Strong economies with low unemployment provide fewer candidates.
2. Internal factors - Organizational culture, compensation and benefits offered, reputation as an employer, career advancement opportunities, and work environment all influence a company's ability to attract talent. Positive internal factors make recruitment easier.
3. Job requirements - The skills, experience, education, and other qualifications required for a role impact the size of the potential candidate pool. Very specialized or unique roles may have a smaller pool.
a job evaluation report....evaluation processatama perez
The document summarizes the methodology used by a job evaluation committee to evaluate jobs at Spurs Telecom Limited. The committee identified four compensable factors to evaluate - decision making, level of contacts, complexity of duties, and education. Different point levels were assigned to each factor and jobs were rated based on the total points. The General Manager position received the highest points (400), followed by the Senior Sales and Marketing Manager (300), Sales Supervisor (200), and Sales Representative (100). Based on the points, the committee recommended establishing a graded pay structure to determine salary levels for each job consistently with market rates. Maintenance of the job evaluation system and procedures for re-evaluating jobs were also recommended.
The document discusses performance evaluation and control processes. It defines key terms like performance appraisal, promotion, demotion, transfer, separation and control processes. It describes various methods of performance evaluation like management by objectives, critical incident method, behaviorally anchored rating scales. It outlines the main steps in control processes as establishing standards, measuring performance, comparing actual and expected performance, and correcting deviations. It also discusses requirements for an effective grievance management system like having a clearly defined system with timelines and an unbiased individual to address grievances to prevent issues.
The document outlines the steps of an employer's disciplinary system for addressing unacceptable employee behavior and performance. It describes a progressive 3-step process including an oral warning, written warning, and then disciplinary action such as suspension without pay, reduction in pay, demotion, or dismissal. The goal is to communicate with the employee to improve issues, not punish, after other methods like performance reviews and coaching have failed. The steps provide details on notifying the employee of problems, consequences, appeal rights, and expectations for demonstrated improvement.

Section 2 Solution: Hire a trainer to conduct Sexual
Harassment Training. Ensure that everyone signs an
acknowledgement of the completion of the course.
3. Legal Expired work permits
Sexual Problem: You did find one I-9 which contained an
Harassment expired work permit
Expired work Solution: Audit all employees to verify legal work
Section 2

to expire so they can be renewed before the
expiration date
4. Legal Cobra
Sexual Problem: COBRA paperwork given to terminated
Harassment employees contingent upon return of their
uniforms
Expired work
Section 2
permits Solution: Companies are required to provide the
COBRA paperwork, regardless of whether other
Cobra
company-specific conditions are met. Employers
must notify plan administrators of a qualifying
event within 30 days after an employee's death,
termination, reduced hours of employment or
entitlement to Medicare.
5. Legal Handbook is out of date
Sexual Problem: There is an Employee Handbook dated
Harassment December 1996 which functions as both a
handbook and a policy manual. Changes in policy
Expired work are communicated verbally and through written
Section 2
permits memoranda.
Cobra
Solution: company should create a policies and
procedures document that is separate from the
employee handbook that includes the following:
Handbook unlawful harassment complaints policy,
discrimination complaints policy, alcohol & drug use
policy, and dress code
6. Legal Personnel Files
Problem: Personnel files for former employees are
Sexual on file back to 1975.
Harassment
Solution: A separate employee file should be

Section 2
permits
human resources department Under the Health
Insurance Portability and Accountability Act
Cobra (HIPAA), it is imperative that all medical
documentation be maintained by the benefits
section. Documentation related to health issues
Handbook should be kept for five years after employee
termination. As personnel files are used to make
personnel decisions (who to promote, lay off, fire,
Personnel Files etc.), it’s presumed that managers and supervisors
have access to those files. Medical information,
background investigation reports, I-9s should have
separate files to avoid any appearance of
discrimination when making those decisions. Also,
information that could be used for identity theft
should be limited.
7. Performance Management Affair results in promotion
Problem: VP of Manufacturing had an affair with his
assistant, resulting in her promotion to Analyst to the VP
Promotion of Quality Control
Solution: Institute a formal annual performance review
Section 2 system, with training beforehand for managers on how to
complete a performance appraisal; including keeping logs
of good/bad performance examples. Informal reviews
should be done at least quarterly, but preferably a
monthly one-on-one meeting between
supervisor/employee. At the Analyst’s first performance
review, determine if she is capable of doing her current
job, if she is qualified to do the job, etc. If so, no problem
in letting her remain there. If not, she must be demoted
or transferred to a job she is qualified for, based upon her
performance (not with whom she is sleeping)! Her
previous supervisor must be re-trained on Sexual
Harassment.
8. Performance Management Appraisals
Problem: Lack of Performance Appraisals after 90

benefits receive a company paid $200,000 life insurance
policy which is not outlined in the Employee
Handbook.
Section 2

Employee handbook so that other employees are
aware. It should state that any candidates in a
President and the roles his six direct reports get
(now and incoming candidates in this position) will
have this benefit so that other employees do not
feel there is preferential treatment
10. Coaching No formal coaching or developmental program
Problem: There has been no formal training
Coaching
program at Alum-Titan. All management is
attending this program which deals with
communication, conflict management, performance
Section 2 contracting, etc. There are no plans to extend these
sessions to the first line supervisor level.
Solution: Hire contractors to provide specialized
training courses. Teach managers to coach their
staff. Provide bi-lingual trainers when necessary.
Coaching opportunities include: mentor program,
job rotation, ongoing, instant coaching and
feedback
11. Compensation Pay scales
Problem: Pay scales changed annually, most often
Pay scales
to adjust top rates to accommodate employees who
progress to that level.
Section 2 Solution: Pay scales should be reviewed annually to
determine placement in the market salary range.
Salary inquiries should be made online (cheap and
easy) and by the old-fashioned telephone call to
similar companies. Most HR professionals are
happy to share information, as they get feedback
from their counterparts in the process.
12. Compensation Top Range Salaries
Problem: Several employees paid above the top of the
Pay Scales
range.
Top Range Solution: Top rates should not be adjusted to
Section 2
Salaries accommodate employees at the top of the range if the
range is determined to match the market. Wages
should be frozen until the market “catches up.” Other
benefits may be given, such as flex time, executive
leave, bonuses, etc., although these should be
distributed fairly amongst similar job titles.
13. Compensation Annual Increases
Problem: Most employees have received annual
Pay Scales
increases of 3-4% for the past 3 years
Top Range Solution: Employees will begin feeling entitlement
Section 2
Salaries to 3-4% percent annually, regardless of
performance. Increases should be awarded based
Annual upon the total package of job performance,
Increases certifications held, specific duties performed,
tenure, etc.
14. Training OSHA Violation
OSHA Problem: A serious injury accident in the plant has
Violation recently occurred and several safety violations were
found in a subsequent OSHA inspection. One of the
violations was that the company didn’t have an IIPP or
Section 2 a Hazardous Material Training program.
Solution: Ensure at minimum mandatory:
Sexual Harassment Training
Workplace Violence Training
IIPP or a Hazardous Material Training program
Training on completion of Performance Appraisals
for Managers/Supervisors
Use tools to make mandatory training less
onerous (lunch provided, offsite somewhere

contacts are often utilized.
Section 2 Solution: All candidates that will get an offer need
to provide three references of people they have
worked with in the past to be contacted by HR and
need to go through background checks (criminal,
credit*, education verification). Drug test process
must be required from every person on staff.
18. Recruitment Employee Applications

process for all candidates that come in for an interview.
Regardless of whether they are referred by other
employees, advertisement, or job boards, if they are
interviewed by Alum-Titan, they need to fill out a job
application and have it attached to their resume. HR

the company for up to 1 year for EEOC purposes (2 yrs
recommended); employees that are hired should have
their application materials kept for the term of their
employment plus 1 year (or 2 recommended).
19. Recruitment Interviews

department. Hiring team will be able to decide if
there is a culture fit. It also saves the company
money by avoiding bad hires. The panel should
include an HR staffer to ensure questions asked of
applicants are legal. Panel can also include the
hiring manager, but must also include others to
avoid nepotism or hiring of friends who may not
actually be qualified.
20. Recruitment Job Descriptions

Problem: Lack of job descriptions except for Inside Sales
Checks Manager’s 5 employees
Solution: Revise job descriptions. Create new descriptions.
