Compliance Issues Overwhelm HR Departments

Written on .

Recent studies suggest that regulatory and legal compliance takes more than half of the time of HR departments. One of the greatest attributes any HR official can have is the ability to anticipate legal and compliance issues so that they can be addressed, either by talking to others in the organization or outside counsel. One way to deal with HR personnel with their compliance support is through the regular memos or newsletters (like this one!) updating them on current issues. Readers, therefore, are urged to let us know the email addresses of their managers and supervisors whom you believe would be helped by receiving emailed newsletters at least once a month, plus more extensive articles on matters of interest. If you will provide those email addresses to us, we would be pleased to add them to our mailing list free of charge.  In addition, if there are other employers in your area that you think would enjoy these newsletters, we would love to add them as well if you will give us their contact information.

This article is part of our February 2023 Newsletter.
