Innovative Online Total Comp and Benefits Statement Gets Rave Reviews—Compensation experts discuss a new, on-line total compensation statement developed at Abbott Laboratories that offers candidates and employees one-stop total compensation information.

What Talent Acquisition Pros Say About New Total Rewards Site—Denise L. Johansen and Jason R. Senner share the outcomes of their new on-line total rewards statement, including employee reactions.

Technology Brings Tricky Twist to an Old Issue—Hours Worked—Compensable “hours worked” is all the time during which an employee is suffered or permitted to work for the employer, whether or not required to do so, and when the employee is under the control of the employer, says Innes. But what about insignificant time periods?

Sometimes You've Gotta Use the “F” Word—A recent Wall Street Journal article, “A Four-Letter Word Schools Won't Use”, intrigued me, says business and leadership blogger Dan Oswald.
