What are your rules for hiring relatives ? Can they have the same manager but not have reporting to each other ?

It depends on the roles. We have family in our Mfg and Distribution facilities reporting to different shift supervisors/manager at corporate they can’t be in the same department.

Direct reporting relationships are the most concerning. Same department is probably not the best idea. They’ll tell you all day they work great together and around each other. And, it’s all good until it’s not. The other thing to be on the look out for is if there is an FML case or a death, you potentially have 2 gone instead of just one. Time off for vacation or kid’s events will hit the department twice as hard.

At a previous employer, we had a supervisor that had his wife in an area lead position and her son worked in the production shop. We were family owned and operated and it’s hard to have a nepotism policy when the owner’s family is heavily involved in the business. We got purchased by a larger public ally traded company and as we were cleaning up and restructuring, the supervisor went all the way to the CHRO and CEO asking to keep his wife in her lead spot under him and that the whole situation should be “grandfathered...” you just can’t make it up.

Hi all, I got laid off from my current company (product based) a month ago. Since then I've been looking for new opportunities. I got an offer from a good product based company with a good package and also my current company offering me rehire with promotion and a good package. I have a good rapport with my current manager, and he played a major role in offering this rehire opportunity. I'm confused about making the right decision here. Kindly share your views. Both offers are pretty much same.

Any thoughts on the best certifications to get in order to help move forward? I have considered the CCP from World at Work, but it’s fairly pricey to get by the time you wrap up everything.

I was hoping to get some thoughts on this from others? Thanks

I’m taking the SPHR in less than 2 months and haven’t started studying for it. How difficult is it? I’ve been in HR for 20 years and have experienced ALOT in that time, although there are always employee relations scenarios that surprise me! How much do I really need to study for this? I just can’t seem to motivate myself to do it, I’m so mentally burnt out at the end of the day from a high stress HR job, the last thing I feel like doing is studying HR!
