Annual Euchre Tournament

The Advance Staffing Solutions team from Southgate recently attended the Rotary Club of Wyandotte’s Annual Euchre Tournament!  Proceeds went to benefit “Blessings In a Backpack” which is a program that helps those families meet their nutritional needs on weekends when the students don’t have access to the meals they receive at school.

A backpack is sent home each Friday, with a qualifying student, filled with food and returned on Monday to be refilled for the following Friday.  Each backpack contains several pounds of foods such as tuna, peanut butter, macaroni and cheese, fruit juices, pastas, oatmeal, fruit bars, and soup. The food is provided at reduced costs through special arrangements with the Meijer grocery chain.   If Meijer’s does not service a local community, then arrangements are made with other community providers.

Scared of December New Grads? Make Sure That You’re Not Discriminating on Age

DecemberGrads

 

This is the time of year when a whole group of new college grads will begin looking for work. With an influx of new graduates in the job market, it is important that employers are aware of ways that they can avoid discriminating based on age. Age discrimination in the workplace is something that you want to shy away from at all costs. People are staying in the workforce longer, and this can be difficult to deal with. The type of industry that your business is in will have a major influence on the amount of ageism that exists.

What is Ageism?

In order to make sure that you are not discriminating based on age, it is important that you are aware of what ageism really means. Ageism is essentially age discrimination and can be seen in the workplace in a number of different ways. If the decision to hire or not hire an employee is based on age, this is an example of ageism in the workplace. Age is not something that should be relevant in the workplace. There are a number of reasons why a business might benefit from making age a factor, but this is not something that should play a role in the hiring process.

Avoid Ageism

It is important that all businesses are aware of the ways in which they can avoid ageism in the workplace. This means that businesses need to be aware of all local and national ageism laws that are in place. Being knowledgeable is always the first step. It is important that you are not hiring people who you shouldn’t be. This might not seem plausible, but it is much more common than you might realize. There is a minimum age requirement and you need to be sure that you are always following this law. It is important that you always ask for proof of age before your hire potential employees.

Advertising

It is also important to be aware of the role that advertising has in the age of potential employees that come applying for jobs. The way in which you choose to advertise your business can play a big role in the age of applicants that you see. This means that the way you advertise jobs could make it look like your business has an age discrimination issue, when it really simply gets one type of applicant.

Join us in honor of Lisa Greene!

As most of you know the Advance Staffing team suffered the loss of our dear colleague and friend, Lisa Greene, this past February. Lisa was diagnosed with Inflammatory Breast Cancer in November of 2014.  She faced her battle the way she did any challenge, with strength, bravery, a sense of humor and quiet dignity.  Not a day goes by that we don’t miss her smile and warm spirit. 

 

We decided that we wanted to participate in the 2015 Northwest Ohio Race for the Cure in honor of Lisa. Since many of you worked closely with Lisa we wanted to extend an invite to be a part of our team for Race for the Cure.

 

The race takes place on Sunday, September 27th in downtown Toledo. The race is scheduled to begin at 9:30 am.

 

You can chose to walk or run the 5k or simply make a donation to our team.

 

Our team name is Greene Machine. Anyone who joins our team will be getting a team t-shirt.

 

There are several way to sign up to be a part of our team. The easiest way is to use the link the below and then click on the button that says “join team.” This allows to sign up for the race and also be put under our team. The registration fee for the race is $35.

 

http://nwohio.info-komen.org/site/TR/RacefortheCure/TOL_NorthwestOhioAffiliate?team_id=334422&pg=team&fr_id=5366

 

In order to have our team shirts done in time the deadline to sign up to be a member of  team “Greene Machine” is Friday, September 18th.

 

We also plan to participate in the Team Tailgate that takes place before the race. Once our team is finalized we will send out more info about that.
