CheckPoint HR Releases “Spring Cleaning” Tips for the HR Department

PRLog (Press Release) – Apr 22, 2008 – CheckPoint HR, LLC, an innovator and leading Administrative Service Organization (ASO) that offers small- to mid-size organizations an integrated Human Resource Management System (HRMS) for payroll services, human resources, and benefits administration, today announced its “Spring Cleaning” tips for the Human Resources department. The list identifies the most important tasks organizations can perform this spring to ensure their human resources operations provide the best environment for businesses to thrive and grow.

1.   Go Green: Eliminating paper through the use of email and a Web-based HRMS platform with document storage allows you to free yourself from the physical clutter that tends to pile up on and around your desk.  Your HR department could use the same overhaul. Moving your HR department documents online eliminates paper use by combining all processes onto one intuitive portal for a paper- and stress-free office environment.
2.   Tidy-Up Benefits: In a recent poll conducted by the National Association of Professional Employer Organization, inadequate benefits are among the top reasons employees leave an organization. With solutions like The Wilshire Group’s BENeLERT Process, a 180-day proven practice to help clients identify the best rates, employers can provide the most comprehensive healthcare plans available for all employees.
3.   Make Employees Shine: Motivate employees by offering a variety of online training programs to sharpen skills and expand education. With CheckPoint HR’s online training options, employees can choose from over 100 skills courses to help business and personal advancement.
4.   Open the Windows: Let your employees see inside the department. Providing employee online access to important HR documents and personnel information not only strengthens employees’ sense of control and satisfaction, but alleviates unnecessary managerial assistance as well.
5.   Prepare for Success: As important as it is to straighten up your current office, it is equally essential to prepare for a future of success. With the right recruiting tools you can be sure to attract and retain the best candidates.

“Reorganizing your HR department is a great way to update old processes and Spring presents a perfect opportunity to start this transformation,” Michelle Moylan, HR Specialist at CheckPoint HR, said. “By making these simple, but valuable changes, employers can turn a basic HR practice into a highly efficient and responsive department that benefits employees, businesses and the environment.”
