Human Resources Career Killer - A Must Read Article

This post is a referral to a MUST READ column at Workforce for all HR professionals in the United States. Clink on the article title to get the full post of Kris Dunn's article. I don't agree with everything that Kris has to say, especially about the "Career Killer" part, but it is certainlty thought provoking reading.

This piece of legislation would cripple the competitiveness of American business, limit the rights of employees and eliminate the need for independent-thinking HR pros, all in one easy-to-sign law.

This column is different. Instead of wondering if the PHR/SPHR is worth your time or why your employees post their résumés in broad daylight, this time I’m wondering if you’ll have a job in 2010.
Did that get your attention? Because today I’m focusing on a piece of legislation that would cripple the competitiveness of American business, limit the rights of employees and eliminate the need for independent-thinking HR pros, all in one easy-to-sign law.
I’m talking about the Employee Free Choice Act .
Raise your hand if you’ve heard of the act. America’s lucky if 10 percent of you raised your hands.
And that’s the point. If signed into law, the Employee Free Choice Act would radically change the American workplace, and your life as an HR professional. Most members of our profession have no clue the change is right around the corner. It’s not your fault, but it’s time to get in the know.
