Attracting and retaining your talent

Feb 4, 2015 | HR NEWS, Uncategorized

As our local economy continues to recover, we’re observing new job creation, and people feeling more comfortable in pursuing new opportunities. Are you ready for this shift?

According to a recent study by the Society of Human Resources Management (SHRM), the three biggest HR challenges over the next 10 years are retaining and rewarding the best employees (59%), developing the next generation of corporate leaders (52%), and creating a corporate culture that attracts the best employees to organizations (36%).

One key component of attracting and retaining your valuable staff is a competitive compensation and benefits package. Do you know what your competitors are offering?

If not, you should. Sierra HR Partners has successfully conducted comprehensive salary studies for a variety of industries. As a neutral third party, we are in a unique position to obtain confidential wage, benefits and operational data, while ensuring confidentiality of participating organizations.
