HR Forums are held every Spring, Fall, and Summer. These forums serve as an essential platform for providing relevant information, updates, and reminders about HR and Payroll services, policies, and programs to all employees.
The primary purpose of conducting HR Forums is to foster transparency, communication, and engagement between the HR team and the college community. By holding these sessions regularly, we aim to create an open and collaborative environment where faculty and staff can access accurate and up-to-date information about HR-related matters.
The HR Forums will cover a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:
- Employee Benefits: We will discuss the various benefits available to employees, such as health insurance, retirement plans, leave policies and other perks.
- HR and Payroll Updates: Any changes or updates related to procedures, regulations, and policies.
- Policies and Procedures: We will review and clarify college policies, codes of conduct, and other relevant procedures to ensure everyone is aware of their rights and responsibilities.
- Training and Development Opportunities: The forums will also serve as a platform to introduce upcoming training and development programs available to members of the college community.
- Feedback and Q&A Session: We encourage active participation during the forums. Attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions, seek clarifications, and provide feedback. Please note that individual instances will be deferred to a private conversation for confidentiality purposes.
By attending these HR Forums, you can stay informed and empowered to make well-informed decisions about your employment and take full advantage of the resources and opportunities provided by the college.
