  • Question of the Week

    Question:
    “What are SMART goals?”

    Answer:
    “The SMART goal framework is an approach to goal setting that helps you set goals that are more impactful and likely to be achieved, while avoiding goals that are too broad to be meaningful or simply too difficult. SMART stands for specific, measurable, attainable, relevant, and timebound. Let’s examine each quality in turn.

    A specific goal identifies exactly what is to be achieved. It answers the question of what success looks like. Let’s say you want to set a goal around improving morale. A specific goal might be “reduced turnover” or “increased scores on the annual employee engagement survey.”

    Question:

    “What tips do you have for hosting an end-of-year company holiday party?”

    Answer:

    A holiday party can be a great way to celebrate the year with employees, but it can come with risks. We recommend the following best practices:

    • Unless you intend to pay employees for their time at the event, make attendance optional. Employees should not feel pressured in any way to attend.
    • Avoid conducting any work-related activities at the event, such as award presentations or company updates. To further support the non-work nature of the event, hold it outside of work hours and, if funding and practical considerations allow, off-site with the opportunity for employees to bring a guest.

  • Question of the Week

    Question: 

    “What should we do when one of our designated paid holidays falls on a weekend when we aren’t open? Do we need to offer an alternative day off?”

    Answer: 

    No, you don’t need to offer an alternative day off. There are no federal laws requiring private employers to provide paid time off for holidays.

    However, there are potential benefits to offering an alternative day off.

  • Question of the Week

    Question:

    “Can we decrease the number of hours employees work?”

    Answer:

    Yes. Absent an employment contract or other legally binding agreement, you can reduce an employee’s work hours—there is no law that prevents this. Hours are typically reduced for reasons such as a decrease in business needs, the company’s productivity has decreased, job restructuring, or reorganization.

    It’s important, however, to make scheduling decisions in a manner that is consistent with legitimate business needs and to ensure that you’re being consistent in how you treat employees.
