I didn't know that unions can decrease productivity because of union contracts limiting workloads & the enforce of different work rules. As there is a debate regarding unions having a positive vs negative impact. #HRglobal#MGMT352Ch15#SCSU#SCSUmgmt352#2021spring@huskymgmt
I was intrigued to learn that the U.S has one of the lowest Union Membership rates compared to other countries. In 2017, Sweden had a rate of 65% & Canada had a rate of 28% with the U.S only having a rate of 10%. #HRunion#MGMT352Ch15#SCSU#SCSUmgmt352#2021spring@huskymgmt
It upset me to read that in 2016, black workers earned 72 cents for every dollar earned by white workers. As EEO laws can only go so far because "legitimate" factors allow for differentiated earnings. #SCSU#SCSUmgmt352#2021spring@huskymgmt#HRpsyfairness#MGMT352Ch12
@JesseMarshik @huskymgmt I agree that it is interesting that minimum wage differs per state. Even throughout Minnesota pay differs from city to city. I am eager to see how the minimum wage will transform within the next couple of years. #SCSU#SCSUmgmt352#2021spring@Huskymgmt#HRpay#MGMT352Ch12
@rina_hryts @huskymgmt I agree with you as it is important for employers to establish equitable & motivating pay for their employees. Without a rewarding pay employees may lack job satisfaction & the position may have a high turnover rate. #SCSU#SCSUmgmt352#2021spring@Huskymgmt#HRpay#MGMT352Ch12
It is important that employers realize employees care about their pay compared to other employees. When their is a misunderstanding over pay it is important to have a discussion in order to avoid low job satisfaction. #HRpay#MGMT352Ch12#SCSU#SCSUmgmt352#2021spring@huskymgmt
I agree that employees prefer feedback right away as it is then motivating. Receiving feedback annually does not allow you to correct bad habits in order to prevent future mistakes and instill confidence. #HRperformance#MGMT352Ch10#SCSU#SCSUmgmt352#2021spring@huskymgmt
I was shocked to read in Ch 6 that more than half of HR managers have caught at least 1 piece of false information in a resume. Using background checks & references help distinguish dishonesty within applicants.
