The document summarizes key findings from a SHRM poll on the ongoing impact of the recession on federal government agencies. It finds that in 2011, half of federal agencies had no layoffs, though financial health has declined compared to 2010. Two-thirds were hiring, primarily to replace lost jobs. Recruiting was difficult for some positions like technical jobs, and the majority had hired veterans for hard-to-fill roles.

The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM®), the world’s largest association devoted to human resource management, has collaborated with Globoforce® on a series of surveys about employee recognition.

In the 2015 survey, 80% of organizations indicated they have an employee recognition program, and more than one-half (58%) have a program that is tied to their organization’s values. Overall, respondents said employee recognition programs had a positive impact on employee engagement, happiness and workplace relationships, but the impact was perceived to be greater for those with values-based programs.

Among organizations that indicated they had hired 2015 graduates, 18% offered higher total compensation to 2015 college graduates than to 2014 college graduates; the majority (81%) offered compensation that was “about the same.”
