By Joe Marconi in Joe's Blog4 commentsA recent study, done by Harvard Business School, concluded that the real problem with attracting and retaining employees has more to do with the workplace environment, not pay or benefits. While the study did find that an adequate pay plan and offering an attractive benefits package did help with recruiting and retention, it’s not enough to satisfy the needs of employees, especially those of front-line workers.
The study also stated that in 2021, many companies were convinced that giving raises, sign-on bonuses, and other perks would solve the worker shortage problem and prevent people from quitting. However, this strategy did not work. So, what does work regarding attracting quality people and keeping them employed?
Essentially, it all comes down to the culture of your company. Management: do all it can to consider the individual needs of your employees. Your employees want to feel that they have a voice, that their opinion counts, and that their role in your company is both respected and recognized. Yes, pay and a great benefits package will go a long way toward making your employees feel secure, but that’s only financial security. People want more than money.
To attract and keep top talent requires creating a company that people feel proud to work for. You need to reach the hearts and minds of your employees. Become a leader that people are enthusiastic about working for. You want your employees bragging to their friends and family that your shop is a great place to work!
Step one to attracting and retaining quality employees: Create an amazing workplace environment for your employees! Trust me, happy employees make happy shop owners too!

Get a behind-the-scenes look at shop owner Tom Sciortino's new ADAS unit. Find out why he waited until now to purchase it, the learning curve with service information, why it is important to educate both the customers and local shops, and a step-by-step guide to how it works.
Tom Sciortino, Total Automotive, Buffalo, NY. Tom’s previous episodes HERE
Show Notes: Autel 900- ADAS unit plus it's an alignment machine We have to educate not only the consumers but the other shops, because any change in geometry, any change in the vehicle, you should at least confirm that it's in calibration. It may not always set a trouble code. Learning curve to find service information You have to be able to read service information and be able to follow procedures. Static and dynamic calibration Use the scan tool for the calibration process to access the computer system, scan the vehicle, and also communicate with the equipment to move the equipment up, down, and go ahead and do the adjustments There's also a screen up mounted high, so you can rotate that towards the car. It's a touchscreen so you don't have to keep coming behind the unit. The software walks you through the process step by step. It tells you what targets to set up, what steps to do on the equipment, what adjustments to make on the equipment, and walks you through it step by step. Documentation is huge because of the liability involved if someone gets into an accident. Digitally attach reports to work orders and take pictures with a tablet. Organize targets in cabinets with labels Lighting is crucial- changing the entire shop to LED and painting the ceiling

In this episode, consultant David Fisher gives you a chance to understand OSHA and keep you compliant. This is a must listen episode. The information could save your business. Regarding workplace safety and HR compliance, 85 - 90% are not compliant across America. To be non-compliant could cost your business. OSHA will interview your employees. Are you inspecting your lifts yearly? Does your team have access to SDS sheets (Safety Data Sheets). Are you giving all your employees access to your safety program? OSHA is ramping up stricter enforcement procedures. Invest in an annual walk of your shop from an OSHA consultant and get the accountability you need to prevent huge fines.

OSHA - will now interview your employees while inspecting your job site Ignorance is not an excuse anymore OSHA has determined that they want safety in the workplace. Compliance is like a picture painted by numbers. The more numbers you have filled in, the better off you're gonna be. OSHA is looking for, among others is your safety program, safety training, documentation, workers' compensation You've got 72 hours to a week at the most to get it back to them with your reply. After they get your reply, they're gonna review it, and then they're gonna assess the fines and fine you accordingly. No matter what state you do business in, you must meet the basic OSHA standards. Every year, you must have your lifts certified/inspected. You can certify them yourself if you installed them. The company that sold them can certify them. But if you install them, the state feels you have the wherewithal to inspect them and certify them. Be careful. There is no easy button for safety or HR compliance. The one thing you do have to be aware of is that if you name a safety officer in your business, they're gonna be tied into any potential lawsuit that arises out of a safety act or an accident in the workplace. OSHA knows that we, as a group of consultants, have more authority and more power over employers than they do When a company has paid money for a safety consultant, they know that the shop has an accountability partner, If you're gonna get with an HR services company, make sure they're working with actual attorneys. Make sure that these attorneys are gonna be there for your clients. You can have a perfectly legal employee handbook that covers the policies adequately. But you may not be able to take that employee handbook into court because when you go to court, there are certain things that the judge is gonna look at to make sure is in certain places of your employee handbook. If it's not in those places, you're gonna have two strikes against you in the eyes of the judge before you even start One is your at-will status between page one and page three Number two is your sexual harassment policy. Is it between pages three and page five? Does your sexual harassment policy include bullying in the workplace and all the other things that have now been dovetailed into that policy? You need to understand your policy and how a termination, not done correctly, can hurt a suit from a former employee. This three strikes you're out is a joke. There is no effort to rehabilitate the employee in most companies. Some companies are very progressive, and that's a good thing. Create a very positive workplace culture. Compliance is always cheaper than the fines and the hassle Link to handout David spoke about: HERE.
