Smart Start Money provides information on making smart money decisions. Providing tips, personal experiences, and opinions on saving smart and spending smart. Times have changed since getting a job and keeping the same place of employment for a lifetime. The average time spent with one employer is now three to five years. Companies are replacing workers with lean staff that previously held more people to accomplish the same tasks. This has resulted in periods of unemployment for many people making it challenging to save for retirement and stay debt-free. The rising costs of healthcare, consumer goods, and wages that often do not seem to keep pace with the cost of daily life make it more important than ever to make smart financial decisions. Millions of people struggle each day to get ahead. The intention of Smart Start Money is to not only provide insight into saving or spending but also open conversations. Discussions relating to the economy, employment, and even the occasional forbidden topic of politics are possible. If the subject matter has a correlation to helping people with their finances or questioning the so-called experts, it is open for dialogue. It has never been more important than ever to save and stay out of debt. No one has all the answers when it comes to personal finance. People come from all different backgrounds in life. The choices we make and the opportunities available are never identical. We can all learn from each other.

Human Resource Department Misconceptions

Company Human Resource departments are often labeled as being there to help employees. This could only be further from the truth.
HR departments are not employee advocates. Their main objective is to keep a business out of trouble with the government and employment laws. Issues, such as sexual harassment and discrimination, are a few examples of real problems that do exist. The EOC (Equal Opportunity Commission) has a number of laws in place to protect workers. It is the Human Resource department’s responsibility to ensure a company does not get caught up in complaints that have the potential for further action.
This Smart Start Money podcast episode looks at what role a Human Resource Department really has. It isn't to help with conflict resolution or assist employees with their problems. The truth is HR does not care about you. Their role is to do the very best from the moment you walk in the door to protect the company that provides for them.
