6 Things HR Pros Do
Over, and Over, and Over …

2. Groundhog Day
With Groundhog Day in the rearview
mirror, did it remind you of tasks that
come up again, and again, and again?
It's HR déjà vu.
Even with the constant changes in the
field, some duties can leave you feeling
like a certain movie character. Didn’t I
just do this?
With that in mind, here are six things
HR pros feel like they have to do on
repeat.

You developed a sexual harassment training
program. You put your executive team through it.
Now, the state passes new legislation saying you
have to do it all over again. Who needs the
training — managers only or all employees? What
about the frequency? Didn’t we just do this?
The requirements of both the law and senior
leadership may put you through a spin cycle of
training seminars. Plus, the repeated preparation
and execution of sessions may have you feeling
like it’s your own personal Groundhog Day.

Didn’t I just ask my location manager to display the new pregnancy
posting for California? Oh, the state made a typo on it. Guess we
need a new one.
Labor law postings change frequently, which can leave you feeling
like it’s the most repetitive of tasks, especially if you’re in charge of
hundreds of locations across the country.
These postings are often your first line of defense in case of an
employee complaint. Though it may seem monotonous, it’s
something you must keep an eye on as an HR pro.
GovDocs Update Program, anyone?

An opening comes up in your company. You update
the job description, post it to the appropriate
websites and fend off recruiters banging down your
door.
But once you find the perfect candidate, they back
out at the last moment. The process starts again.
With low unemployment rates nationwide, and the
rise of “ghosting” among job prospects, recruitment
is another one of the HR pro’s responsibilities that
seemingly never comes to an end.

Your company opened new stores in Maine and Nevada. Three
months later, the manager hired four new people. What is the
waiting period before employees can start using paid leave?
Plenty of jurisdictions now have their own paid leave requirements.
Tracking accrual rates, recordkeeping, seasonal vs. full-time … It’s
the kind of thing you feel you’re doing over and over again.
Plus, there are currently dozens of paid leave bills under
consideration across the country. Keeping up with paid leave might
make you want to crawl back into your burrow for six weeks.

In a tight job market, getting your hands on
competitive compensation data for specific
markets can be pivotal when it comes to hiring
the right candidate.
But many young professionals are also job-hopping
more than their predecessors, which can lead to
more research for HR teams.
If you have employees in cities across the country,
compensation research can become tiresome ...
And repetitive.

Will the minimum wage in Los Angeles County update this
summer? Or was it Jan. 1?
With the federal minimum wage unchanged since 2009,
states, counties and cities are setting their own rates.
Dozens of rate increases take place at the start and middle
of each year, and there are a few that update during odd
months like October.
Managing rates can be a constant challenge, especially if
your locations have industry-specific requirements. Yet
another job responsibility that seems to come up frequently.
Give GovDocs Minimum Wage a try.
