Free Webinar: Creating and Delivering an Employee Orientation Program

admin — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 19:24:14 +0000

On July 8, 2008 at 2 p.m. HRSentry will be hosting a free webinar that will discuss both the importance and steps to creating and implementing an effective employee orientation program. Employee retention and productivity can be impacted by a number of different organizational forces, which start the moment the employee steps in the door to interview for the job. One of the most important things to remember is that first impressions can set the tone for the whole experience. You want to make sure that both the employee and the organization are on the same page and know what to expect from each other.

Get started with your employee orientation program by going to the HRSentry Homepage and clicking the link “Register Now” tab on the right side of the page.

The Webinar will be presented by Brenda Sabin and run for about one hour. Participants will receive a free 30 day trial of the HR Made Simple Kit. Email support@hrsentry.com or visit the HRSentry Homepage with any questions regarding the upcoming webinar.

Dean Haller to Speak at Vermont Venture Meeting on June 19th

admin — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 19:12:11 +0000

Dean Haller, President of HRSentry, will be the keynote speaker for the Vermont Venture Network on June 19th. An expert in the field for 35 years, Dean will be addressing the issues surrounding workplace safety and workers compensation.

Prior to starting HRSentry in 2003, Dean began his human resource career at the Dollar Bank in Pittsburgh, PA before joining PNC Financial Corporation where he worked for ten years. Leaving as the Vice President of Employment and Training, Dean moved back to Vermont where in 1990 he started the HR department at IDX Systems Corporation, serving as the Director of Human Resources until 1998. At that time he assumed the role of Vice President of Administration at Green Mountain Coffee Roasters in Waterbury, VT from 1998 to 2000, and then left to form Black Diamond Human Resources Consulting, LLC. In 2001 he expanded the consulting business to become HallerLee Human Resources Consulting, LLC.

In addition to his corporate experience, Dean has been a member of the adjunct faculty at Champlain College teaching senior-level Human Resource Management. He is also the past Chair of several national non-profit organizations such as Special Olympics Vermont and Vermont Youth Conservation Corp and he remains actively involved in the community. Dean holds a degree in Psychology from Duquesne University.

In today’s economy, managing costs has become increasingly important for organizations of all sizes in every industry. One effective way to manage this is through workplace safety and loss prevention programs. Dean will touch on these key points as well as discuss some of the tools and services available to reduce such costs. As an organization geared toward enhancing the interaction and exchange of ideas among Vermont’s entrepreneurs, these topics will be beneficial to all business owners and administrators.

In addition to workplace safety, Dean will talk about other ways to save both time and money with the virtual HR department and training opportunities offered through HRSentry. With resources such as required state and federal employment posters, a sample employee handbook and information on how to properly interview and hire new employees in compliance with the law, HRSentry provides a great resource for organizations looking for cost effective solutions.
