What is Human Resource (HR)?
|
What are the five top priorities?
|
Human Resource is the management of all things related to one’s employees, from the leadership of staff to the structure that supports the organization.
Effective HR management reduces the risks associated with the various compliance issues that all organizations face. Compliance with governing legislation and best practices are paramount in ensuring that Human Resource practices are effective and costs stay low.

Employee Contribution to Group Benefits Premiums
|
Recently we discovered that a large employer was allowing employees on non-medical leaves of absence (i.e. sabbaticals) the opportunity to maintain benefits while on leave by paying for the benefits themselves. Had there been a claim of any kind, the plan carrier would not have paid it.

Starting a New Project or Initiative?
|
Now is generally the time of year when organizations look at initiating new projects for the upcoming year, budgets and developing new targets. We hope that you will consider our Procurement Services division to help you meet these goals.
Although our primary focus is on group buying, our team helps in many other ways under the procurement umbrella. We can help to augment your internal team to maximize capacity and increase your productivity - and bottom line. The savings we can earn you might help to finance staffing, equipment or programming. Your ASSOCIUM GAIN/Advantage team will show you how we make good things happen for our members! We have been helping organizations of all sizes achieve their goals since 1996! Reach out today and see how we can help your business meet its operational and administrative objectives.

Ask the Pharmacist: Ranitidine Recall
|
Alternative medications to Ranitidine
|
Ranitidine is the generic name of the commonly used over the counter heartburn medication Zantac. Though Ranitidine is considered an over the counter medication for relief of occasional heartburn, it is also sometimes prescribed for people that need to use it regularly as a maintenance medication for stomach ulcers or chronic heartburn.
