XpertHR's pay and benefits editor Sheila Attwood and I recorded this video last week. We discussed forecasts for pay trends in 2009 and examined the main influences on remuneration, including continuing recession, competitive pressures, rising unemployment and falling inflation.
Sheila and deputy editor Michael Carty visited the Bank of England recently to brief the bank's economists about what is happening on the UK pay scene - reported by Sheila in this post. I start the video by asking her to share with viewers what she told the Bank of England.
The video landing page on the main XpertHR site includes links to XpertHR's key resources on pay and benefits - ranging from a comprehensive review of pay prospects for 2008/09, through guidance on total reward and an overview of good practice on employee benefits.
The landing page itself is accessible to non-subscribers, but most of the links are for XpertHR's subscription content.
The previous XpertHR outlook video was on the employment law outlook for 2009, focusing on the repeal of the statutory dispute resolution procedures expected in April and the new Acas code on disciplinary and grievance procedures.
The first in the series was on HR in the recession. In that video, Jo Stubbs and I discuss the role of HR in the economic downturn, looking at forecasts for the economy and labour market and asking how human resources professionals can add value in organisations facing the toughest trading conditions for many years.
These videos are something of an experiment for us and we're keen to hear your views, whether on the videos themselves or on the issues raised - please feel free to use the comments.
