| | | Alex did a great job yesterday of summarizing some key total rewards issues that popped up this week. Luckily, Congress' latest actions have given me plenty to talk about in this recap of the health care reform efforts of this week. | | Nov 6, 2009 | |
| | | Yesterday was one of those days when nearly every article I read seemed interesting to me and pertinent for total rewards practioners. | | Nov 5, 2009 | |
| | | Yesterday the Senate HELP Committee held a two-panel hearing titled "Pensions in Peril: Helping Workers Preserve Retirement Security Through a Recession." | | Nov 4, 2009 | |
| | | Last week I attended an event in which Lord Adair Turner, chairman of the United Kingdom's Financial Services Authority (our approximate equivalent to the Securities and Exchange Commission), gave insights on the economic crisis and described questions we still need to ask to potentially avoid another one. | | Nov 3, 2009 | |
| | | Looks like not even the promise of trick-or-treating could distract some people from health-care reform. | | Nov 2, 2009 | |
| | | This week was a total rewards bonanza with news on executive compensation, FMLA, COBRA and health care reform. We also got some good news on the economy with positive economic indicators and new employment numbers showing a slight increase in wages and salaries. | | Oct 30, 2009 | |
| | | Yesterday the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee held a hearing, "Executive Compensation: How Much is Too Much?", with the first panelist being Kenneth Feinberg, the Pay Master for TARP Executive Compensation (more widely known as the "pay czar"). | | Oct 29, 2009 | |
| | | Now that Majority Leader Harry Reid has announced a final Senate bill will include a public option, will he be able keep the 60 votes he needs to pass health care reform? | | Oct 28, 2009 | |
| | | Last Friday, October 23rd, WorldatWork participated as a lead organization in sponsoring two congressional briefings (one on the Senate side and one on the House side) entitled "Our Stories, Your Constituents: A Diverse Group of Representatives from Business, Employee, Consumer and Professional Organizations Will Discuss the Importance of Flexible Work Arrangements." | | Oct 27, 2009 | |
| | | Good Monday morning readers! This morning we have a news menu full of variety for your reading pleasure. Everything from executive compensation, to health care reform, to the federal workforce pay and benefits structure. So let¿s dive in, shall we. | | Oct 26, 2009 | |
