Human Resources Development with the Strategic Vision and Mission
|
|
GSSI makes sure our client’s vision, mission, and values aren’t just words
nicely framed and hung on the wall. These ennobling, clarifying statements
create the context and purpose of all systems and outcomes. Our strategic
management expertise helps clients integrate all business functions, to include
HR, into a coherent effort accomplishing shared goals and objectives. The
specific strategic HR support we provide includes:
|
-
Organizational Development
Our strategists help clients clarify and improve their business model and build
or modify the organizational logic that delivers the brand promise. We help you
get the right person into the right job at the right time. We help you design
an organization that fulfills the mission, lives the values, and achieves the
vision.
-
Policy Development & Monitoring
Clear, useable policies provide the guidance leaders and employees need to do
their jobs and make decisions. There are no ‘cookie cutter’ solutions for
policies. Your company is unique, so your policies need to be unique. GSSI will
help you develop new policies or revise existing policies so that they are
meaningful and effective.
-
HR Metrics
”If you don’t measure it, you can’t manage it.” Business leaders and owners
have no problem measuring financial metrics. Some overlook developing and
measuring the key performance indicators of an effective HR program. GSSI’s HR
strategists help clients develop, measure, and report on the key metrics that
keep the organization correctly staffed and motivated.
-
Employee Handbooks
An employee handbook is an essential communication tool for your organization
to communicate general guidelines and expectations for employer and employee
throughout the employment relationship. GSSI can create a handbook for you or
review/edit your current handbook to ensure legal and ethical compliance.
-
HR Information Systems for record keeping
There are so many software packages for Human Resources record keeping. If you
don’t already have software, we will work with you to select the best software
for your needs. If you have software, GSSI will work with you to ensure you’re
getting the most benefit from your current software.
HR Compliance Audit
|
|
Ignorance is not bliss when it causes companies to not comply with laws and
regulations! What you don’t know or don’t do in employment issues from
recruiting to terminations can and do result in lawsuits, which eventually cost
businesses a lot of money. Our HR experts provide a complete audit to keep you
in compliance and to help you get back on track if something is wrong. Here are
the areas our experts address when conducting an HR compliance audit:
|
-
Mandated Benefits Compliance
GSSI will audit and ensure your organization is in compliance with federal and
state mandated benefits like unemployment, worker’s compensation, Family
Medical Leave Act, Jury Duty, Military Leave, etc.
-
Employment Law Compliance
GSSI offers on-going expert consultation to our clients regarding all employee
relations issues that can arise at any time from the recruiting process, to
employment matters, to issues surrounding disciplinary actions and
terminations.
-
Wage & Hour Compliance
Fines and penalties for non-compliance to Wage and Hour issues are soaring. Let
GSSI help ensure you are in compliance with costly Wage and Hour issues.
-
Record Keeping Compliance
It is not as easy as having “just a personnel file” anymore. Some forms need to
be filed separately; medical records must be maintained according to HIPAA
regulations; and it’s important to know record retention requirements. GSSI
will ensure that you’re keeping the appropriate records; maintaining them in
the proper place; and keeping them for as long as required.
-
Compliance Training for Supervisors and Non-supervisors
Making sure your supervisor and non-supervisor employees are properly trained
on all essential legal matters is not only the right thing to do, it
significantly reduces your chances of ending up in court. Supervisors and
non-supervisors need to understand their legal rights and what they can and can
not do in employment. Without compliance training, employees can unwittingly
violate HR laws and regulations. Our trainers at GSSI can “train-the-trainer”
or conduct the training necessary to ensure employees receive training on
essential laws.
Recruiting, Staffing, Engagement, and Retention
|
|
At GSSI, we strongly believe that getting the right people into the right
position is the major step to business success. We can assist clients with
their recruiting practices to attract and hire top talent. GSSI’s HR experts
help clients develop and sustain HR processes that support excellent
performance and profitable employee retention.
|
-
Recruiting and Hiring Support
Hiring the right people is a two-fold process. First, applicants should be a
good company fit and, secondly, they must be a good job fit. GSSI provides
clients with state-of-the-art employee assessment solutions. Additionally, we
help clients improve their hiring process and provide training for interview
and selection processes.
-
Employee Retention & Engagement
Turnover costs companies millions of dollars each year. The loss of a valued
employee has significant consequences on operations. Why do people rush to
leave companies? Unmet job expectations, disappointing first days on the job,
poor and untrained supervisors, compensation that doesn’t make sense or seems
unfair, feeling devalued and unrecognized, loss of trust in company leadership,
and more. Employees either quit and leave or, worse, quit and stay. With state
of the art assessment tools, GSSI can assess current employee satisfaction and
engagement, and has a proven track record for effective and measurable employee
retention and engagement strategies.
-
HR Metrics
”If you don’t measure it, you can’t manage it.” Business leaders and owners
have no problem measuring financial metrics. Some overlook developing and
measuring the key performance indicators of an effective HR program. GSSI’s HR
strategists help clients develop, measure, and report on the key metrics that
keep the organization correctly staffed and motivated.
-
Employee Communicationst
Employee communications may be the most consistent and difficult problem for
strategic leaders. In nearly all employee opinion surveys GSSI conducted
throughout the US, employees assert that there is a lack of communications in
their organizations. As one strategic leader stated, “The best laid plans
without communication will fail miserably.” GSSI understands the criticality of
this issue and can help you improve your internal and external communications.
-
Training Management
One of the most frequent problems we have seen is strategic leaders who “throw”
training at a performance problem. There are times when lack of skill it is not
the problem. We help clients conduct a thorough needs assessment to clarify the
real issues, and develop the right intervention.
-
Career Management and Succession Planning
Career management is the practice of helping an individual identify his or her
career ambitions. The sequence of job experiences, education and training
should help an individual prepare for future jobs to benefit the individual and
the organization. GSSI has both the assessments and coaching necessary to help
clients identify and manage career tracks that help them keep their best people
and prepare for the future.
Employee Surveys
|
|
A leader's intuition should never be overlooked. In addition to intuition, the
best of leaders seek out information to understand the situation, develop
courses of action, and make decisions.
At GSSI, we have customized many surveys for our clients. These surveys get
answers to their pressing questions and long-term challenges. We work with our
clients to determine what information is needed and then design a survey that
quickly and efficiently collects the data. Our online solutions mean we can
send surveys next door or around the world. We collect the data, analyze it,
and present it in a detailed report.
|
Leadership Assessment and Development
|
|
“Not enough coaching and feedback” shows up over and over again as one of the
top 10 reasons employees leave their companies. GSSI helps clients assess
leader performance, clarify or identify existing or potential problems, and
develop leader development solutions. We provide customized leadership
development programs and one-to-one executive coaching. We are committed to
helping clients improve their succession planning so they have the right
leaders ready for future challenges and opportunities.
