SURVEY SAYS

Despite the impending economic recovery, most U.S. companies are not planning to restore executive pay cuts or freezes made during the economic crisis in the next six months, according to a new survey by Watson Wyatt, a leading global consulting firm. As they prepare for continuing increased public scrutiny of executive pay, many are avoiding further short-term changes and focusing instead on longer-term shifts toward better pay-for-performance and assessing their compensation programs within the new context of risk management. The survey report is available at www.watsonwyatt.com/ExecPayOct09.

WHITE PAPER

Phony academic degrees and the shady companies who peddle them online are the focus of a new article by EmployeeScreenIQ, a global leader in employment background screening services. The article is titled "Smoke, Mirrors and Resumes: The Growing Threat of Diploma Mills." It's available at no charge from EmployeeScreenIQ by visiting http://www.employeescreen.com/whitepapers_articles.asp.
