  NOVATO, CA, Sep 02 (MARKET WIRE) -- 

 

WHO:     Barry Maxson, executive vice president of Customer Solutions for
         Enwisen, the leader in on-demand workforce communications
         solutions, and Chad Flynn,  director of Compensation and HR
         Technology for Hannaford Bros. Co., which operates  more than 170
         supermarket and pharmacies in the northeast United States

WHAT:    Will present "How Web-based Onboarding Engages New Hires and
         Speeds Time to Productivity," a look at how employers are
         leveraging onboarding technologies to engage new hires with a
         personalized onboarding experience, and Hannaford's strategies for
         pre-boarding new hires -- and extending onboarding to "the first
         100 days" as part of their HR transformation projects

WHEN:    The 21st Annual Benefits Forum and Expo will be held Sunday,
         September 21 through Tuesday, September 23, 2008

         "How Web-based Onboarding Engages New Hires and Speeds Time to
         Productivity," will be held Tuesday, September 23, 2008 from
         1:30 p.m. to 2:25 p.m. EDT

WHERE:   Gaylord National Resort and Convention Center
         201 Waterfront Street
         National Harbor, Md.

DETAILS: An effective and strategic onboarding process is critical to
         maximizing employees' talents and skills, speeding time-to-
         productivity, reducing new hire turnover, ensuring compliance,
         socializing new employees to an organization's policies and
         culture and ultimately driving business success. Unfortunately,
         many employers are challenged with manual and disparate onboarding
         processes that involve dozens of steps and software systems -- all
         too often leaving new employees with a feeling of disconnect on
         their first day.  Session attendees will learn how a personalized
         onboarding experience can provide new employees with policies,
         benefits and forms that are relevant to them, keeping them engaged
         to the fullest throughout their employee lifecycle. The session
         will also promote informed benefits consumerism and improved
         employee service and communication via more effective
         self-service, employee portals and shared services environments.
         In addition, attendees will learn how to effectively and
         strategically improve the employee experience while reducing
         costs.
