If you’ve ever sat in a meeting thinking “this could’ve been an email,” you’re definitely not alone. A new Léger survey commissioned by Quebec’s Order of Certified HR Professionals finds nearly two-thirds of workers feel exactly that, even though most say they don’t actually spend that much time in meetings overall. Manon Poirier, CEO of the Order of Certified Human Resources Professionals, spoke with Andrew Carter.

In part two of the four-part layoff series, Traci addresses what often goes unspoken in layoff conversations: the toll on the HR professionals managing them, and how to take care of yourself while taking care of everyone else. What We Cover:— The grief HR professionals carry that nobody talks about— Numbness as a warning sign, not a badge of honor— How to structure your day when the conversations are relentless— The end-of-day ritual that actually creates separation— Where to find HR peer support when you need people who get it— What survivors are feeling after the dust settles— Rebuilding morale without forcing itConnect with Traci here:https://linktr.ee/HRTraciDisclaimer: Thoughts, opinions, and statements made on this podcast are not a reflection of the thoughts, opinions, and statements of the Company by whom Traci Chernoff is actively employed.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products or services.

„Aber was ist dann mit den Männern? Da bewerben sich doch dann bestimmt weniger.”Das war das vorherrschende Bauchgefühl unter den HR-Professionals, die Petra zum Thema Gendern in Stellenanzeigen befragt hat.Zusammen mit Workwise hat sie diese Annahme auf die Probe gestellt: Die Stellenanzeigen unserer Kund:innen lieferten die Daten, Petra und ihr Team die Analyse.Jetzt sind die Ergebnisse da und im Podcastgespräch mit Host Franziska klärt Petra auf: Welche Auswirkungen haben gegenderte Stellenanzeigentitel auf das Bewerbungsverhalten?Das Ergebnis: Der „Male-Backlash” ist ausgeblieben. Auf gegenderte Stellenanzeigen bewerben sich nicht weniger Männer.Aber: Frauen bewerben sich deutlich häufiger, wenn der Anzeigentitel gegendert ist.Mit nur drei zusätzlichen Zeichen, dem „:in” hinter dem Jobtitel, kannst du bis zu 50% mehr Bewerbungen für deine Stellen rausholen.Klingt zu schön, um wahr zu sein?Dann höre dir die ganze Podcastfolge mit Petra an und tauche noch tiefer in die Studienergebnisse ab: 00:00–05:40 Menschliches Verhalten verstehen und die Zukunft der Arbeit gestalten – diese Themen treiben Petra an. 05:41–09:28 Die Fragestellung: Hat das Gendern in Stellenanzeigen Auswirkungen? 09:29–12:05 Der Versuchsaufbau: Nur das „:in” wurde geändert. 12:06–18:50 Die Ergebnisse: Im besten Fall gibt's fürs Gendern 50% mehr Bewerbungen, im schlimmsten Fall tut sich nichts. 18:51–23:35 Das Feedback: Wie wurden die Ergebnisse aufgenommen? 23:36–26:35 Die Zukunft: KI, Diversity und vielleicht auch die nächste gemeinsame Studie? 26:36–28:56 Petras Takeaway: „Die kleinsten Hebel können große Auswirkungen haben.” 28:57–33:35 Ein Appell zum Schluss: Wenn Forschung & Praxis zusammenkommen, entsteht Fortschritt.Die Extra-Dosis Recruiting-WissenWerde Expert:in für Stellenanzeigen: Überzeugende Stellenanzeigen schreiben: So geht's!

As economic instability continues to confound politicians across the spectrum, the UK labour market remains fragile.

Over the summer, the Senate and House passed President Trump's “One Big Beautiful Bill Act”, enacting sweeping changes across all facets of the country, including substantial increases in funding for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, changes to AI policy, and many other facets that have cause anxieties among both employees and employers to skyrocket. Today, we're joined by Amanda Czepiel (SEE-pea-ill), HR legal expert at Brightmine, to discuss the three critical areas HR leaders can't afford to overlook regarding the passing of President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act.

Okay, maybe you just started a job (or you're still looking for one), so it might be a little early to ask this question. But it's never too early to be thoughtful about fit and about the skills you're developing at work; whether or not a position feels like your "forever job".This week, InterVarsity Alumna and HR Professional, Kaitlynn Steele, helps us consider our work, teaches us some practical skills for assessing fit, and helps us normalize that reality that at one time or another, everyone asks the big question, "Should I Quit My Job?"RELATED EPISODESE82: Can I Put InterVarsity on My Resume?

In this episode, David and Dwight continue their “AI-Off,” a deep dive into using AI development tools to automate everyday tasks and create custom applications for HR. They explore the concept of "vibe coding" with platforms like Replit and Base44, discussing how HR professionals can leverage natural language to build powerful tools without extensive coding knowledge. They cover the iterative development process, the importance of subject matter expertise, and the practical realities of cost and security when deploying AI solutions. [0:00] Introduction Welcome, David and Dwight! Today's Topic: The AI-Off Part Two - Building AI Applications with Natural Language [8:19] The Pros and Cons of AI Development Tools How platforms like Replit and Base 44 handle the entire application stack, from the user experience to the backend data.  The power of these tools to quickly build dashboards, scorecards, and data aggregation tools that once took significant time and effort.  [17:38] How to build AI Applications with Natural Language Why subject matter expertise is crucial for guiding the AI to build a useful and accurate application.  The importance of providing context to the AI, much like a product manager creates user stories for a development team.  [24:09] The Reality of Building with AI: Costs, Security, and Deployment Understanding the costs associated with using these platforms and weighing them against the time and effort saved.  The need for human oversight and professional review, especially for security and compliance, before deploying an application externally.  [30:24] Closing Thanks for listening! Quick Quote “If you want [AI] to help you use your job better, [using tools like Replit or Base44] is potentially a really great way of being able to utilize your skills and your knowledge in this area.”

This week, we examine how employers should address controversial employee social media activity, especially amid widespread social tension such as that seen after the murder of Charlie Kirk. Social Media and Employee Firings An employee's off-duty conduct can be grounds for termination, but disciplining employees always carries some risk. Recent online discussions surrounding the public murder of Charlie Kirk have spurred firings across the nation, leaving employers exposed to backlash for their action or inaction.  What Employers Need to Know: · “At-Will” Employment: While most employment is “at-will,” allowing termination for nearly any reason, collective bargaining agreements or individual employment contracts may limit an employer's ability to terminate based on off-duty conduct. · Employer Monitoring: Employers may monitor employee activity on company devices and networks and can act on publicly available social media posts. · Reputational Harm: Even where off-duty conduct is protected, actions that damage an employer's reputation can still be grounds for discipline. In this episode of Employment Law This Week®, Epstein Becker Green attorney Kimberly C. Carter offers guidance on addressing employee social media activity, emphasizing the importance of clear, proactive policies to set expectations and outline consequences. - Visit our site for this week's Other Highlights and links: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw405 Download our Wage & Hour Guide for Employers app: https://www.ebglaw.com/wage-hour-guide-for-employers-app. Subscribe to #WorkforceWednesday: https://www.ebglaw.com/eltw-subscribe Visit http://www.EmploymentLawThisWeek.com This podcast is presented by Epstein Becker & Green, P.C.
