From Long COVID to Quiet Quitting, These Are the 5 HR Trends You Need to Monitor
Employment trends expert shares the trends that are impacting your workplace right now
This week over 1,200 New York Times staffers refused to return to the office. The employees say that they will not budge until the news corporation agrees to their demands. Meanwhile, railroad workers have also threatened to strike, with President Biden quickly making a tentative deal to ensure American railways stay operational.
“We are witnessing the beginning of a hugely impactful trend: Strikes and walkouts are going to be much more commonplace in the coming years, and employers need to know how to manage these situations,” says Rob Wilson, President of Employco USA and employment trends expert. “From railroad companies to the New York Times to Harper Collins to the Weyerhaeuser timber company, employees in all different industries are utilizing strikes to demand more benefits, more time off, and even the right to work from home if they choose.”

Here Are the 25 Questions You Can’t Ask in Job Interviews Anymore
HR expert offers revealing take on what questions should be off-limit in interviews
In September 2021, All of Us or None vs. Hamrick was denied a review by the California Supreme Court. Now, the bill is up for a vote once again. If a review is once again denied, then California will continue to prevent employers from asking for job applicants’ date of birth and/or driver’s license numbers.
“By preventing employers from asking for DOB or DL numbers, it makes it much more difficult and time-consuming to do any kind of background check on job applicants,” says Rob Wilson, HR expert and President of Employco USA, an employment solutions firm based in Chicagoland with locations across the country.
Reasons to Outsource Your HR
HR plays an essential role in the success of your company. HR is a strategic part of the success of your business. Your company must recruit, hire, develop and retain top talent to remain competitive. To do that, you need HR professionals with expertise in managing processes and maintaining compliance with regulations that have consequences if not performed correctly. To do this in-house comes at a cost. Partnering with an HR outsourcer can offer insight and guidance to ensure your HR needs are supported and that you achieve your HR objectives while helping you save money.
Here are some of the benefits of outsourcing your HR:
Reduce Costs
Looking for ways to reduce costs or maximize spending is essential to remain competitive. Outsourcing HR roles and activities can help reduce overall costs compared to keeping them in-house and on your payroll. From streamlining processes and managing HR tasks to lowering your benefits package, outsourcing HR functions helps you increase profitability. Partnering with an HR outsourcer like Employco enables you to control employee costs and gain a competitive advantage in stabilizing your company’s future expenses.
