Is there anything worth while about compliance reporting?\u00a0 We do EEO1s, OFCCP, VETS, and do we get anything good out of it?\u00a0 Lets face it, while there might be some slam modicum of insight coming out of these reports that help us look at the demographics of our organizations, I believe that even the most basic of talent management reports far surpass the value coming out of these compliance reports.\u00a0 The only reason we have compliance reports is the theoretical value that reporting to the government prevents bad behavior on the part of employers.<\/p>\n
This is one of those theories that I believe has aged past it\u2019s useful life.\u00a0 Bad behavior may not really exist anymore except in a small portion of the economy or in select geographies.\u00a0 Let\u2019s look at benefits.\u00a0 Long ago, unions negotiated for better wages and benefits for its members.\u00a0 At some point, employers realized that it was in their best interest to offer competitive pay and rewards to attract the best talent and engage their employees.\u00a0 Now, if anything, unions simply represent an economic inhibitor in many of the places they exist.\u00a0 ((Think about how unions make the U.S. automotive industry les competitive.\u00a0 Alternatively, there is an argument that farmworkers still benefit from unions))\u00a0 The same goes for compliance reporting.\u00a0 Most employers today with a large enough workforce realize that getting the best talent out there regardless of any \u201cclass\u201d restrictions makes good sense. Today\u2019s employers will generally seek out the best talent regardless of race, sex, religion, etc\u2026<\/p>\n
I\u2019ll admit that I did prove my point that compliance reporting has its place.\u00a0 There are small employers and some geographies that indeed to need regulation for discrimination.\u00a0 However, or the larger employers, limiting talent pools is not in their best interest.\u00a0 These reporting structures only cost them money and valuable resources collecting the data.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
