HR Weekend Round Up

This weekly wrap up includes some great articles from all aspects of HR and management,

including the need for busy work and how to better manage the compensation conversation.

It also includes an article on the seven things great employers do and a case study from Nordstrom on how to be one.

This article title says it all. The writer provides some horrifying examples of death by overwork then makes the argument that you can be more productive by scheduling downtime, among other things.

This article points out that some companies are making the choice to forgo and HR department, but it also points to the very real consequences of such a decision. It was published last week, but it is a page-turner for anyone in HR or management.
