Training and Consulting Accomplishments:
Development of recruiting and retention program for a national service business employing over 2000 employees. Program was all encompassing, including: applications, interview procedures, new employee orientation program, on-going training and employee development programs, resulting in a reduction in annual turnover from over 400% to less than 100%.
Successful development, documentation, implementation and maintenance of several organizations in ISO 9000 International Quality System Standards. Each organization registered was a first for their industry sector, resulting in groundbreaking interpretation of ISO 9000 standards and audit processes.
Successful program management and ensured compliance to United States DOT legislation on behalf of the State of Florida.
Development and implementation of recruiting and safety compliance tools and documents that have become industry standard tools and are in place today at Canada’s leading trucking companies.
Effective documentation of all HR policies and operating procedures was accomplished and implemented within 6 months for an organization with over 1600 employees working in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and New York.
Development of compensation program which affected all levels of the organization from executives to hourly service and delivery representatives.
By training/advising managers and supervisors in the federal and provincial labour legislation and regulations, a 100% reduction in employee complaints and claims was realized.
Upon completion of new management policies for the prevention of workplace injury, lost time injury was reduced from 186 claims in one calendar year to 17 claims the following year. This resulted in a WSIB NEER rebate of $263K for the first year of the new program and a budgeted cost reduction of over $1 million by year 3.
Successfully managed several Teamster grievances, an arbitration hearing, and advised on the negotiation of a new Collective Agreement, resulting in a reduction in hourly wages to a level consistent with market conditions and the ability of management to sub-contract work.
Developed a Corporate University through the development of strategic alliances with community colleges and universities.
Development of communication plans for both a national and an international business, both of which employ staff on a permanent and contract basis in multiple locations, resulting in a measurable improvement in teamwork, loyalty and commitment.
Led a service business through significant organizational and leadership change. Within a 12-month period of the implementation of new structures, reporting methods, policies and procedures including a head office move to a new region, revenue increased by 23% and profit by 51%.
Through mentoring several Managers, we assisted their development to successful members of the Executive Management Team and their improved ability to lead their direct reports toward the realization of the corporate goals and vision.
Designed recruiting strategies and procedures for a National Trade Association to assist member organizations with their recruiting challenges.
Through the development of retention strategies for several businesses that employ people in "high turnover" occupations such as IT professionals and truck drivers, a significant reduction in turnover (taking into consideration seasonality) was realized within the first 6 months.
