From the Bureau
Real gross domestic product increased at an annual rate of 3.1 percent in the second quarter of 2003, according to preliminary estimates. The major contributors to the increase in real GDP in the second quarter were personal consumption expenditures, Federal defense spending, and nonresidential fixed investment. The contributions of these components were partly offset by a negative contribution from private inventory investment. Imports, which are a subtraction in the calculation of GDP, increased.
Reveille
Unicru and People Report, provider of HR metrics and best practices, will partner to provide benchmark information regarding people practices across service industries, giving these businesses strategic information about the impact of hiring decisions on corporate business performance. The Unicru Center of Excellence, which focuses on workforce analytics and optimization, will team with People Report analysts in the publication of the survey findings and outcomes.
The Turnover
According to the latest Job Recovery Survey from SHRM and CareerJournal.com, 83 percent of employees and 56 percent of HR professionals said it was extremely likely or somewhat likely that voluntary turnover would rise due to the improving economy. However, survey results also show that HR professionals have in place retention programs to address many of the issues expressed by employees, which may help to lower voluntary turnover rates as the job market improves.
Reminds me of something I heard Jim Goodnight, CEO of
SAS, say: Treat your employees like they make a difference and they will. At the end of each day, I watch the company assets drive out of the parking lot. As CEO, it's my job to make sure they return.
