UNIT Human Resource Management in Perspective
Unit Overview
Are You a Leader or a Laggard?: HR's Role in Creating a Sustainability Culture, Robert Sroufe, Jay Liebowitz, and Nagaraj Sivasubramaniam, People and Strategy, March 2010
How can HR be involved and lead in the quest for sustainability? It starts with a guiding philosophy to minimize the organization's impact on the planet, which recognizes the role of human capital in that effort. HR can facilitate that effort through a strategic rather than a piecemeal approach that will assist, if not lead, the organization's sustainability effort.
Is HR at Its Breaking Point?, Todd Henneman, Workforce Management, March 22, 2013

Building Sustainable Organizations: The Human Factor, Jeffrey Pfeffer, Academy of Management Perspectives, February 2010

Engaged Employees = High-Performing Organizations, Bob Kelleher, Financial Executive, April 2011
Right now the economy is down, but eventually the economy will not be. Turnover has been low because jobs have been scarce. When the economy starts to pick up, that will change and many companies will find their employees leaving for other firms. But, there are smart firms that have treated their employees better and will not face the eventual talent drain.

Beat the Overqualified Rap, Julie Ann Sims, How Magazine, November 2010

What is the appropriate use of monitoring when it comes to the personal use of IT equipment by employees?

But many of them still use them and often for reasonable purposes. What is the appropriate policy?

UNIT Implementing Compensation, Benefits, and Workplace Safety

Opening Keynote: Rethinking Pay for Performance, Debra Perry, Directors and Boards, Spring 2009
Boards of directors need to rethink how they incentivize their senior executives, especially in light of the recent downturn in the economy. They also need to consider how they develop talent in their own organizations rather than going out and paying top dollar for executives who know little about their businesses to run their businesses.
The Politics of Executive Pay, Jerry W. Markham, Regulation, Spring 2011
"Tax the Rich!" But the rich already pay most of the taxes and have become very creative in hiding their wealth from the tax man, all legally, of course. So the problem becomes what can be done to get more money for those who do not have it?
Workplace Bullying Threatens Employers, Judy Greenwald, Business Insurance, June 14, 2010
Bullying is the new sexual harassment. Legislation is pending in a variety of states, and in some states has passed, to make bullying illegal. Like sexual harassment when it was first made illegal, bullying in the workplace is ill defined, and many companies paid a high price for the privilege of helping to define it. So it will be with bullying, and many companies are destined to pay that price.

While individual worker factors, such as gender, age, personality, ethnicity, and substance use, do contribute to workplace injuries and fatalities, broader social and organizational workplace factors, such as workload, work hours, work environment, safety culture, provision of quality supervision, and provision of occupational health and safety training, socially structure and influence individual worker attitudes and behaviors in workplace injury and fatalities.
Making Benefits Matter, Torry Dell, Management Accounting Quarterly, Summer 2010
It is not just salary that will attract and keep employees. The total compensation package becomes important, and a big part of that package is the benefits offered by the employer.

Finding and Fixing Corporate Misconduct, Dan Currell and Tracy Davis Bradley, Risk Management Magazine, April 2010

Offshored Headquarters, Allen Smith, HR Magazine, November 2009
One of the trends in the global economy is the purchase of U.S. firms by non–U.S. firms. When this happens, the human resource problems are often compounded by cultural as well as the normal problems that would occur in a domestic business merger.
Multiple Choice, Lori Chordas, Best's Review, March 2009
A one-size-fits-all approach to benefits is not going to work for a company with employees in different countries. Each nation and the employees in that nation will have different requirements and expectations. While the home office can provide general guidelines, the benefits required for employees in each country will be somewhat unique.
