The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) released a New two page Form I-9 on March 8, 2013. This Form can be used immediately, but will be mandatory as of May 7, 2013. DHS gave employers very little time to make this administrative change, which can be especially challenging for employers that have several people responsible for this function through many different field offices.

This session will review the new Form in detail, and will also review the most common errors based on the new form, including how to correct errors made on the Form.. The initiation of a new form is also an excellent time to review all I-9 policies, including whether to make copies of supporting documents, how to process remote hires and rehires, when to reverify in Section 3, and how long to retain I-9 Forms. The speaker will provide practical solutions, especially for those employers that continue to rely on paper I-9s.

No one individual controls workplace culture, yet many HR professionals are expected to take ownership of it. When culture is good, there isn’t much of a concern, but when culture turns toxic—that’s where things can get ugly. Toxic cultures cost employers money and create difficult working conditions for all employees. From absenteeism, to employee turnover, low morale, decreased productivity, and inferior work, we all suffer the consequences of weak organizational cultures.

Join Jostle CEO Brad Palmer and Leadership Expert and co-author of Humanize, Jamie Notter for a 60 minute webinar and learn: How to identify the symptoms of a toxic workplace; how to strengthen culture by connecting to human values; how technology can play a role; and how to change culture step-by-step.

This session is an overview and introduction to Motivation-Based Interviewing. MBI is a 15 year-old interviewing method specifically designed for identifying and hiring high achievers.

Because it takes more than just skill to succeed! MBI assesses all 3 of the components common to top performers that enable them to achieve above-average results, yet requires no extra interviewing time. The 3 components MBI assesses are - skill, attitude and passion! Please note, this session includes a powerful video that’s not available in an archived version.
