Our People, Our Communities |
Here are just some of the ways Reliance staff members have been making a difference in Hampton Roads:
Reliance Staffing & Recruiting celebrated the holiday season by donating once again to the Foodbank of Southeastern Virginia instead of sending out holiday cards. We donated specifically to the Child Nutrition Programs, to help Hampton Roads' next generation grow up strong. Our Newport News office has been collecting and saving newspapers for the Peninsula SPCA. Newspapers are used to line cages to increase the animals' comfort and absorb some of the mess. If you're on the Peninsula and you've got some extra newspapers to donate, contact the Newport News office. Earlier this month, our Suffolk office gathered up extra clothes and household items and made a donation to Vietnam Veterans of America.

Whatever holiday you celebrated last week, we hope it was a lovely one, and we also hope you have a safe and fun New Year's this weekend. As we gear up for the new year, we want to keep you up-to-date on employment issues and ready for the challenges and opportunities 2012 will bring. To celebrate the New Year, we'll be open until noon on Friday, Dec. 30, then closed until 8 am Tuesday, Jan. 3. As your partner in employment, we want to help you build a stronger, more successful business. If you ever have questions about human resources or other employment issues, please feel free to contact us. We'd be happy to share our expertise. Lynn Connor, Vice President

Want to get a jump on the new year? Now's a great time to make sure you're posting the correct employment posters. You've got until January 31 to have most of them up, but those first 31 days of the year can go by pretty quickly, especially as you prepare year-end payroll and other statements.
Do you know which posters you need to have up by the 31st and which you can wait until April to post?

Hampton Roads Employment Issues
|
Over the past few months, several reports from economic and business experts point to a growth of manufacturing jobs in this nation and in Hampton Roads in particular.
One theme that resonates in the national reports is that while manufacturing in the U.S. has been declared deader than disco over the past 20 years (and it has declined in that time, to be sure), the U.S. is still a major international manufacturing power.

Management
|
All good relationships are built on trust: parents-children, spouses or partners, friends... and managers-employees. "Trust" might seem like a fuzzy, emotional word when applied to business, but it has bottom-line payoffs: lower turnover, higher productivity and efficiency, increased opportunities for creativity and innovation. So how can you increase the trust your employees have in you?
