1 Sage Human Resources and Payroll Management Solutions Customer Sessions Tuesday, August 14 2 p.m.-3:15 p.m. B-0402 Talent Management for Small and Midsized Organizations: Why Bother? (Talent Management Part 1) While many enterprise-class organizations have already moved to adopt technology to support the talent management process, small and midsized businesses are less likely to have done the same. Performance processes can be significantly streamlined by leveraging software platforms. Yet, for most companies in this segment, paper-based performance management processes are still the norm. Talent management technology solutions aren't just for large organizations; these tools can also help mid-market companies with increasing their Return on Employee Investment (ROEI) by developing talent to their full potential and increase employee retention. Wednesday, August 15 8:30 a.m.-10 a.m. C-0502 Compliance Trends for 2012 Is Your Organization Ready? 2011 was a significant year for tax reform and legislative acts that impact businesses today. Everything from the Federal Unemployment Tax rates, Social Security rates, e-filing mandates, PA Act 32, and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA) have issued regulations that affect businesses of all sizes concerning benefit requirements, exchanges, and penalties and reporting requirements. It is becoming increasingly clear that 2012 and the future promise to bring change. While the way forward is not yet clear, and many of the regulations are very much under evaluation, Sage HRMS is committed to assisting you with increased compliance requirements resulting from rapidly evolving legislation. Our goal is to minimize your administrative burden across the entire spectrum of payroll, tax, HR, and benefits, so that you can focus on running your business.
