Employees are the moving gears behind a business. For this reason, employers must be sensitive on how they treat and engage their workforce. And it starts from the very beginning, an employee’s first day at work.

Employee turnover is one of the most bottom line busting costs associated with a company’s workforce. SHRM estimates that, for entry-level employees, the cost to fill an open position hovers near $4,000.

Today’s employees want more options, and working part-time is one of them. So, what exactly qualifies as part-time work? The answer varies depending on the company. There’s no federal law that sets the number of hours an employee must work to be considered part-time or full-time.

Today’s Time Well Spent from our friends at Kronos reminds me of that old saying, “ Good, Fast, or Cheap – Pick Two ”. The saying represents the idea that we can get quality quickly, but it will cost us. If we want it quickly and inexpensively, then it might not be that good. And to get something good at a low price, it might take some extra time. In this case, we’re applying the concept to staffing the operation.
