CEOLetter From Our

Dear Clients and Friends,

This past fall, I celebrated my 25th anniversary with Elwood Staffing. Typically, anniversary years seem to come and go with little cause for reflection. But, this one was different.

The staffing industry was a very different place 25 years ago and Elwood Staffing (Elwood Consulting, at the time) was a very different company with a staff of only two people. We certainly have grown as a company, adapted to a changing business landscape, and learned some tough lessons along the way.

As we reflect on the last 25 years, we realize how much the company has been influenced by external sources – not just market demand, pricing pressures or new legislation, but by information we gathered from outside sources, advisors, and industry associations that published trends, statistics, and reports that helped us understand our industry at a macro level and respond accordingly. We realize how indebted we are to so many people.

This publication is one way Elwood Staffing can pay it forward. We are in a unique position to work with and gather information from thousands of employers – big and small – across the nation and in almost every industry. We hope that our efforts to analyze, compile, and share the information will guide you and help you make the important business decisions that shape your company.

Though there are many similar publications available to you, ours is a little different. On a very basic and tangible level, our survey differs from others in that we place an emphasis on the wages and benefits offered to new hires. On a less tangible but perhaps more important level, we are accessible. We openly welcome and respond to feedback and questions from recipients of the information. Our survey and the resulting publication have evolved greatly over the years because folks have taken the time to submit their ideas, comments, and questions. We hope that trend continues for many more years to come.

EE Engagement Picture /start of paper_ Fernando and John D

Employee engagement is an issue that should be of concern to every business. Engagement is measurable, and it represents the degree to which an employee is attached to their job, co-workers and organization. Engagement significantly influences one’s willingness to learn and perform at work, which generates higher productivity and impacts overall company performance and profits.

In recent years, Gallup reported that 29% of U.S. employees were fully engaged, 54% were not engaged, and 17% were knowingly disengaged. To put it simply, three employees out of every ten are fully committed to the success of the company for which they work. In contrast, just over five are ready to jump ship if something better comes along and two are negatively impacting the company.

With nearly 450 corporate employees and 54,000 associates on our annual payroll, we spend a lot of time thinking about engagement and retention. It’s simply too costly to ignore.

In response to our desire to understand what causes employees to be engaged and enthusiastic about their jobs, we gathered feedback from approximately 2,000 working associates in production, distribution and clerical positions across a variety of industries. The five following practices are consistently identified as “stay factors” among associates working in facilities with low turnover and high employee satisfaction:

Recognition: Our associates say that they enjoy being publicly recognized for a job well done.

Training: Employees need to receive the appropriate knowledge about their jobs before they are held accountable to certain production quotas. They also like to be coached on areas for improvement.

Pay: As always, employees are happier when they receive wages that are considered fair and are often higher than other companies in the area.

Treatment by Supervisors: Employees need to be treated with respect by their immediate supervisor and feel like valued members of the team.

Overtime: Many of our associates cite unexpected overtime as a major frustration. Clear expectations and advanced notice allow folks to have a work-life balance, which improves morale.

While there are many factors that play into employee satisfaction, we strongly believe the five listed above are true differentiators. Take a survey of your facility today; benchmark your employee’s satisfaction levels, implement changes, and chart your progression. Your competitors are doing it.

Background Check White Paper

Many employers have criminal background policies in place and have followed those same policies for years. Background reports themselves are deceptively simple to run, but the concept of developing and administering sound internal policies are mazes wrought with trap doors manned by federal agencies and plaintiffs’ attorneys eagerly awaiting your mistake.

On April 25, 2012, the EEOC announced that it updated its Enforcement Guidance on Employer Use of Arrest and Conviction Records in Employment Decisions Under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. Below are summary-level highlights of the updated guidance that you may want to take into consideration as you review your current criminal background policies:

One-size-fits-all policies. Blanket policies, such as a “no felony conviction” policy, are a welcome mat for legal challenge. These types of policies are understandably attractive because of the ease of administration and uniformity. However, you will need to be able to support your claim that every position within your company requires an individual be free from any type of felony conviction which will likely be extremely difficult.

Individualized assessment. This is strongly recommended. This will likely be logistically challenging if you have a large workforce, but that must be balanced against your desire and/or willingness to test the EEOC and their aggressive enforcement initiatives. Such individual assessment factors include: facts/circumstances surrounding the conviction, number of offenses, age at the time of conviction (or release from prison), evidence that the individual performed the same type of work (post-conviction) without incidents of criminal conduct, length and consistency of employment before/after the offense/conviction, rehabilitation efforts, and the like.

Rethink your application. Specifically, rethink asking about criminal convictions and arrests on the application. The EEOC recommends that employers not ask about arrests or convictions on job applications and, instead, inquire only about convictions relevant to specific positions.

Using arrest records is high risk. The use of an arrest record to make an adverse employment decision is considered to have a disparate impact. Unfortunately, the EEOC’s new guidance does not distinguish between a currently pending charge and perhaps an older charge that did not result in prosecution or returned a not-guilty verdict.

The EEOC is very clear that they are aggressively pursuing employers with criminal background policies that the Commission believes result in disparate impact on one or more groups of job applicants. So, If you have not reviewed your criminal conviction policies in the last 60 days, by all means, please do so.

A comparison of the current and prior year wage data yielded a number of observations that highlight trends in the labor market. Some of the observed trends were prevalent across industries and job classifications while others were specific to a particular industry or job classification. An awareness of macro wage trends is important to all, because sensitivity to them helps ensure that your company maintains its desired positioning within the competitive landscape. Summary trend observations are listed below.

Production FacilitiesThe starting wages paid for administrative positions saw virtually no change at the 25th percentile but ticked up by 3.8% and 3.4% for the 50th and 75th percentiles, respectively. This observation indicates that companies with a strategy of offering lesser wages were comfortable maintaining the status quo while those that desired to pay above average wages were compelled to increase rates to maintain their positioning.

Percentage changes associated with starting wages paid for production positions saw considerably less movement as the 25th percentile increased by a modest 0.7%, the 50th percentile ticked up by only 1.2% and the 75th percentile increased by 3.1%. The growth of starting wages was basically stuck in neutral for all companies except those offering the very highest pay.

Positions requiring technical skills posted the largest year-over-year increases at each of the percentiles. The administrative positions that posted the largest gains were payroll clerks at 8.0% and accounting roles at 5.0%. The production positions that posted the sharpest increases were machine programmers at 10.0% and welders at 5%. All other positions posted increases at or below the denoted averages.

Distribution FacilitiesThe starting wages paid for administrative positions saw considerable movement – particularly at the bottom end of the range – as the 25th percentile increased by 8.0%, the 50 percentile moved up by 6.7% and the 75th percentile increased by 3.3%. These large percentage increases at the bottom end of the wage scale lessened the differential among the percentiles and condensed the scale.

Administrative positions requiring technical skills posted the largest increases in these facilities as well. Starting wages paid to payroll clerks ticked up 13.0% while those paid to accounting positions increased by 12.0%. All other positions posted increases at or below the rather robust averages denoted.

Interestingly, there was not noticeable movement in the starting wages paid to production positions at any of the percentiles as starting wages for this group remained virtually unchanged from the prior year. Not a single specific job classification made a material year-over-year movement.

Industry Comparison Starting wages for administrative positions were higher in manufacturing facilities than they were in distribution facilities at each of the percentiles in the prior year. Manufacturing wages were higher by 6.0% at the 25th percentile, 5.8% at the 50th percentile and 3.0% at the 75th percentile. Due to the sharp uptick in administrative wages in distribution facilities this year, relative rates at the 25th percentile flipped and were 1.5% higher in distribution than they were in manufacturing facilities. Introductory wages at the 50th and 75th percentiles remained higher in manufacturing facilities but the size of the differential between the two slipped to 2.7% at the 50th percentile and ticked up only slightly to 3.8% at the 75th percentile. The administrative wage scale differential between manufacturing and distribution facilities clearly condensed in the current year due to elevated increases given within the distribution industry.

The scales were more consistent across years for similar production positions than they were for administrative roles. Starting wages at the 25th percentile were higher for both years (1.2% and 1.7%, respectively) in the distribution industry. The scale flipped at the upper tiers for both years though as the rates were marginally higher in the manufacturing industry at the 50th percentile (2.4% and 1.5%) and decidedly higher at the 75th percentile (7.5% and 9.8%).

The year-over-year fluctuation of the wage scales associated with administrative positions within different facilities highlights the fluidity of the marketplace for labor. The observation exemplifies how quickly scales and competitiveness within and among industries can change during a single year and hopefully drives home the importance of staying abreast of current trends.
