Employers will face runaway work comp costs if Wisconsin lawmakers adopt proposed legislation. Tentative changes to the Wisconsin work comp law would require that employers of injured employees continue to offer group health coverage for the duration of the employee's healing period. According to the proposed law, this group health coverage expense would not be paid for by the employer’s work comp insurance, but instead it would come directly out of the employer’s pocket.

Living your brand happens at a personal level. A weak or non-existent corporate brand poses a huge risk because employees do not feel part of a mission. Fear — fear that sales will decline or that customers will leave — becomes the motivation of your people. The mission in a fear-driven organization is to do whatever you can to keep that fear at bay.

Physical abilities testing is a type of fitness for duty exam. Fitness for duty exams help employers identify the "wrong" worker — that is, the worker who is physically unready or unable to perform the essential functions of a job. This "wrong" worker could be your next work comp claim!

Social recruiting is using social networks such as LinkedIn, Twitter, and Facebook to discover and woo new talent for your firm. But social recruiting is more than tweeting “We’re hiring!” It’s about interaction and filling your talent pipeline with candidates before you post a job.

Does your current policy have catastrophic location coverage, or do you pay a deductible for each piece of equipment? This is an important question for firms that have equipment (such as tractors and trailers) spread across many locations.
