Maximizing your greatest asset

Hard to believe but the holidays are around the corner.  If you don’t want the liability or expense of a holiday party, try some other options:

• Restaurant gift card to celebrate with their family.

• Paid time off.

• Charitable donation of the employee’s choosing.

• There are gift baskets for everybody. Fruit, spa, beef, wine, plants, skin care...

• Ticketmaster or StubHub gift cards for a variety of events.

• High quality insulated drinkware.

Employees overwhelmingly value flexibility after seeing what they can accomplish working from home. 60% of remote capable employees want a hybrid setup.

Hybrid work provides the flexibility employees crave and the in-person time managers need. Offering that flexibility is an excellent method to recruit high caliber candidates and retain exceptional employees.

You’ll find your employee’s satisfaction and productivity increase. And we could all do with a little more joy in our lives.

• Ensure the use of the new I-9 form and process for reviewing identification for remote employees.

• Audit titles against exempt and non-exempt status of employees.

• Watch for pay discrepancies between males, females and races.

• Verify the correct EEO classification assigned to employees.

• Prepare for ACA compliance responsibilities

• Order Federal, State and remote worker postings.

• Create and distribute the 2024 holiday calendar.

• Remind employees to use their FSA money and send in receipts for reimbursement.

• Review your hiring process.
