Communications Workshops
 

HR Portals and Employee Self Service
This case study will provide insights into branding the employment experience and assisting colleagues in understanding their "deal" with Mercy Health System.  The communication opportunities range from on-boarding, to making benefit decisions, to accessing pay, career development, policy, time off, and work life information to on-line total rewards statements.  MHS's goal was to assist colleagues in becoming self-sufficient thereby allowing HR to become a 7 x 24 service.  Utilizing technology to make the most of available resources allowed MHS to create a “one-stop shop” for all HR needs.

Employee Engagement - A Holistic View
Extend the employee consumerism concept beyond health care engagement to employee appreciation of and participation in an optimally configured, broad continuum of employer rewards and security programs—“from joining to leaving.” This concept recognizes that companies can define a winning employee value proposition and promise, still balancing budgets and competitive pressures, while maximizing employee capability to take action that manages their health and security needs for today and tomorrow. Given these dynamics, employers need a holistic view—one that spans the breadth of potential program needs by addressing weaknesses and enhancing strengths, and one that facilitates employee engagement and shared responsibility across the continuum from recruitment to retirement.  

Learning objective:
To think about employee engagement across the spectrum of HR functions and to create a value proposition that addresses employee needs in a broader way.
