Getting passed over for a promotion can be disheartening and even humiliating. Whether you thought you deserved the job or were promised it, no one likes hearing that they didn't meet the mark.

The good news is that it's possible to survive the experience with both your reputation and ego intact, and to become a better employee because of it. More Poor economy has little effect on disability, workers' compensation benefits programs Workforce Management Share ![]() ![]() ![]()
Employers appear to have been spared the ill effects of a weakened economy on their disability and workers' compensation benefits programs, a new survey has found. A survey of as many as 13,000 employers by the Integrated Benefits Institute revealed "no dramatic changes" in the incidence of short and long-term disability claims from 2008-2010.

As a result, there's one scenario HR/benefits pros need to be on the lookout for: supervisors asking their nonexempt staffers to get work done off the clock.

Many of us have lost the art of hand written communication. We can easily send a 140-character Tweet, but we can't clearly communicate about our business.

ADP expands HR to smartphones DailyFinance Share ![]() ![]() ![]()
Ninety-four percent of mobile workers now carry smartphones, and 41 percent tote tablets, according to a recent survey conducted by enterprise mobility services provider iPass.

With that said, even the best, most employee-oriented firms, will occasionally have to deal with employees who just aren't happy. Unhappy employees seem to present themselves differently from happy employees or even from employees who are sad.
