Benefits Audios

In this week’s podcast, Brenda Perkins interviews Tim Davis from the law offices of Constangy, Brooks, & Smith. Davis has been with this prestigious firm since 1992 and is considered one of the top 100 employee relations lawyers in the U.S. With the passage of some form of the Employee Free Choice Act likely in the near future, Tim’s expertise is invaluable. Here’s some of the advice he has for HR professionals and employers who want to remain union free in the upcoming years.

In this upbeat interview with TCOY Wellness coach Lucy DelSarto, Brenda asks the question on every employer’s mind. Why should my company invest in worker wellness? DelSarto points to the high cost of disease-centered health care as a burden that is becoming untenable. Some of the largest industries in the U.S. actually spend more on health insurance for their workers than they spend on the raw materials to create their products. Imagine what your business could use those funds for if employees enjoyed excellent health through prevention rather than intervention!

Industry expert Deborah Thorne (president of Prism Creative), discusses the concept of HR branding in this interview with Brenda Perkins. This informative talk introduces the concept of developing a brand for Human Resources communications. Her remarks on perceived value and employee retention are of special interest. Most companies spend a significant portion of their yearly budget on workforce related expenses. It makes sense to create a polished, consistent presentation strategy for vital compensation and benefits information.
