The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) did a nice job recapping issues they covered at this years Democratic and Republican National Conventions. According to SHRM Chief Operating Officer (COO) China Miner Gorman; “This election tees up HR issues like maybe no other election.”
One of SHRM’s hotbed issues continues to be the pending immigration reform and the extension of the E-Verify program. E-Verify was officially extended last month but there still remains a plethora of immigration reform issues. Gorman said “all are in play and will end up on the desks of our members.”
There are no significant federal issues in regard to background checks but the National Association of Professional Background Screeners (NAPBS) remains engaged on all issues.
