Diversify your company by NOT hiring diverse employees

Digital HR Tech

Just like racial and gender discrimination in our society, the problem with corporate diversity is structural.

Very important things like policies, handbooks, sternly worded admonishments, and memos about cleaning out the refrigerator. And while an e-mail informing employees they are not to feed donuts to the alligator (yes; I’ve sent that one) can be cranked out in a minute, some of our HR tomes take considerably longer to complete.

5 Things You’ll Never Hear an HR Department of One Say…

UpstartHR

For those of you not in the know, an HR department of one is just what it sounds like: an HR department where one person covers all the bases from an HR, talent, and recruiting perspective. I have a special place in my heart for the HR department of one, because that’s where I came from.

I’m being physically bullied at work, coworker leaves bathroom in chaos, and more

Ask a Manager

It’s five answers to five questions. Here we go…. 1. I’m being physically bullied at work. I’ve worked in the same office for about five years now.

Those of us who weren’t accepted into the clique are often treated as if we don’t exist, but most days are tolerable.
