Absenteeism is not something that is confined to a few sectors of the economy. It is one of the most persistent obstacles to productivity, profitability and competitiveness. In this webcast we look at how the latest developments in Time & Attendance and Labor Scheduling solutions are assisting World Class organizations to permanently reduce absenteeism. We uncover the many associated costs of absenteeism including; overtime, dissatisfied customers and the morale of workers expected to cover for absent employees. We explain why absenteeism remains a persistent problem for organizations, despite the fact that many organizations have first class policies on absence management in place.

As organizations seek to improve the effectiveness of contingent labor management programs, a holistic view of the workforce and strategies for optimizing spend is essential. A solution that combines information about full time and contingent workforces provides visibility into total talent and allows organizations to more effectively source talent, control costs and manage a blended workforce.

This webcast will provide insight into ways that organizations can achieve visibility into their talent pipeline. Key takeaways from the presentation will include:

• How an integrated system can manage permanent and contingent workforce
• How reporting can be used to change recruitment behavior across your entire workforce
• How technology can be used to drive change through the business

The majority of HR technological innovation to date has been focused on improving efficiency and effectiveness of corporate HR/recruiters, with little being done to help improve the candidate experience of applying for a job. In many cases, these technologies have actually made the process worse for candidates, forcing them to manually enter their information into long application forms.

Organizations wanting to attract top talent need to make candidate experience a top priority within their HCM strategy. This means ensuring candidates have a positive experience throughout the application process, including making it easy for them to provide their information.

This presentation will show how you can make the application process simple for both the candidate and the recruiter. It will also show you how to increase the amount of candidate information captured, enabling recruiters to make quicker and more effective decisions on which candidates to pursue.

Learn about the importance of Candidate Experience and the impact it can have on the volume and quality of candidates that will complete your organization's application process.
• Learn how to simplify the application process for both the candidate and the recruiter, while capturing more of the candidate's information at the same time.
• Learn how to consider Candidate Experience throughout your entire recruitment process, including your Oracle HCM system.

According to research performed by Appirio, the next 3-5 years is projected to see 80% of present companies change their HRIS systems to the cloud. We suspect that, if not already planned, the rest of the IT system for most of these companies (if not all) will follow. Along with this are 6 operational as well as behavioral changes coming – all of which will be discussed in this webinar. There is a change coming that equals in magnitude the changes the basic office experienced with the introduction of the computer. Information will be become even more available and the work day will never be the same as well.

This presentation, based on the experiences and "next practices" of hundreds of HR leaders and projects, will examine the five (5) critical issues that must be addressed in the critical first 100 days and beyond of HRIS project implementation.

This session will include a 100-day template to HRIS implementation excellence, and the strategic to tactical steps that must be taken to accelerate user alignment and adoption. The session will examine not only the technical aspects of launch, but also the fundamental behavioral aspects that must be considered.

Finally, the session will give several "next practice" case examples of users who successfully implemented HRIS projects in small to large scale environments.

HCM in the Cloud? Is the sky the limit or should we be fearing a storm?

Concerns from vendors and clients are no longer centred on "What is the Cloud?” but rather "Will the Cloud work for us?”

We invite you to our HR.com session to discuss the established trend of Cloud/Software-as-a-Service and how it is shaping up (and even shaking up) the HCM arena.

During the session we will provide you with insight on the key drivers for cloud, how to align these with your strategic business initiatives, and a high level overview of the leading Cloud application offerings from renowned providers.

In your attendance, we hope to impart knowledge on the benefits cloud solutions can provide you and your organisation and allow you to take the opportunity to see the latest cloud HCM offerings.

Compensation management is one of the most critical and complex processes for a global company: Why is it critical? Not only because it represents the largest part of your company’s total costs, but more importantly because it is one of your company’s most effective tools to drive its human capital. Why is it complex?

Because local markets vary in terms of talent expectations, pay practices and local regulations, not to mention issues of language, currencies, and culture. To get local buy-in while retaining control and meeting business objectives requires a compensation management system that provides a consistent framework, but with flexibility to adapt to local needs.

This webcast will educate you on the challenges, pitfalls, and benefits of implementing an automated global platform for compensation management, whether it be for salary reviews, performance calibration, short term incentive plans, long term incentive plans, sales commissions, royalty sharing, channel compensation, or any combination of these. It will help prepare you to deliver value to the business by implementing a solution that uses compensation effectively to drive performance across the global enterprise, while streamlining processes and eliminating the manual efforts, high costs, and risks involved with using Excel or homegrown solutions to manage compensation in a complex environment. It will draw upon the real life experiences of global companies who have met these challenges, and help you to avoid costly missteps in planning, designing and implementing such a solution.

After having answered over 100’s of RFP’s from many organizations searching for HRIS technology I believe that I have gained some good insights into how best to approach and engage with vendors. This session will review what an HRIS acquisition should look like and what questions to ask a vendor. This session will cover the RFP’s and questions that will ensure that the Vendor will not be able to successfully or intelligently provide you with the information you NEED to successfully and intelligently select, negotiate with, purchase and implement a successful HRIS initiative. Also this session will share with you the 10 things that scare Vendors because they speak to an organizations lack of understanding and seriousness of purpose in choosing an HR system.
