We will be giving away five paid registrations to the

May meeting and will be giving away the last two in July.
Members may purchase a raffle ticket for $5/each and attend
the July meeting for a chance to win. There are two ways
members can purchase raffle tickets – when they
register for the meetings or at the meetings. You must
be an HRACI member to enter and be present to win. If
you did not win in May, your ticket will stay in for the
July drawing.

The Foundation funds research, publications and education

of HR professionals. We have another special treat for
the July meeting – during the networking portion
of the meeting, from 11:30 – 12:00 p.m., we will
be showing the “HR in Alignment – The Link
to Business Results” DVD which is a product the
SHRM Foundation created. The video, narrated by Dr. Wayne
Cascio, presents a real-world case study of Sysco Food
Services Company, North America's largest food-service
distributor. It examines how HR strategy is aligned with
the overall competitive strategy to drive business results.
So, we hope you’ll join us and take advantage of
this opportunity.

| Compensation & Benefits Conference Recap |
| 
By Keisha Underwood & Mike Jenkins
On June 15, 2006, the HRAI held a half day Compensation and Benefits Conference sponsored by Century 21 Sheetz Relocation Services. The guest speaker, John Rubino, presented to a group of 85 professionals on an alternative to today’s “base salary merit increase” method. John is the author of “Designing Successful Compensation Programs to Attract and Retain the Best and theBrightest.” He is an internationally acclaimed motivational speaker. His presentations are very engaging, funny and larger than life. He is a very highly rated speaker with the World At Work organization. John explains how to establish a direct link between performance and rewards in designing a total cash compensation program.
 John’s
alternative, known as the Variable Compensation Program,
derives from the increasing negative factors associated
with the current method. Base merit increases have the potential
to foster mediocrity and limit the retention of good employees.
The Variable Compensation Program is a cultural/behavioral
change and may not work in every organization. This program
focuses on individual and group incentives such as measured
output, profit sharing, performance sharing and equity.
The program creates high turnover. Many times mediocre employees
leave and the best and brightest stay.
10 criteria for successful Variable Programs
were outlined: 1.) A successful plan is aligned with organizational
culture/values, 2.) A successful plan is fair to employee,
3.) A successful plan is fair to the organization, 4.) A
successful plan sets total compensation (Total Rewards),
5.) A successful plan yields financial returns to employees,
6.) A successful plan yields financial returns to the company,
7.) a successful plan involves employees and managers, 8.)
A successful plan uses internal and external data, 9.) A
successful plan sets forth clear performance goals, 10.)
A successful plan achieves clarity through communication.
