"All the requirements"

Maintaining a successful organization today requires a smooth and productive contribution from each member of the team. When any one member of the team has an issue, whether personal or professional, it affects productivity. Developing and successfully implementing proactive employee assistance programs is key to helping maintain the high standard of contribution. An effective Employee Relations department will add not only value to the team, but also add to the bottom line with unrealized costs in a number of areas.

In addition to maintaining state and federal labor relation requirements, Employee Relations may cover several other operations within Human Resources to maintain that positive employee-employer relationship. Some of the programs may include:

• Counseling Programs (All levels - internal and external counseling)
• Cultural and Diversity Programs
• Drug Testing and Background Checks
• Employee and Leadership Coaching (All levels)
• Employee Development Programs (which also ties in with the Competency Models and OD)
• Government Claim Management
• Grievance Management (grievance and dispute programs)
• Labor Relations
• Merger or Acquisition Due Diligence and Integration
• New Hire Orientation
• New Hire Training Programs
