Successes
Performed key roles in meeting company targets and ensuring the successful
launch of warehouse facility growth; activities included hiring over 150
new employees within a one-year period. Structured and implemented programs
and policies in the area of compensation & benefit, recruiting, selection &
orientation and training & development.
Promoted solid HR presence and open door policies which contributed to a
positive work environment, this rewarded the company with solid employee
relationship which contributed to a 40% improvement in attendance and 21%
reduction in turnover. In addition, due to a strong human resources
presence, three outside industry inspired union drives were squashed over a
two and a half year period. Note: after dismantling the strong human
resources team due to US expansion the company became unionized under one
and a half year period.
Throughout the course of my career, I have maintained above standard health
and safety committees, programs and safety groups. Safety programs reducing
injuries an average of up to 20%, met all return to work requirements and
continually challenged outstanding claim decision for validity and
individual or company responsibilities. On a previously open WSIB case a
review and appeal was won and the company was refunded approximately
$100,000 paid claim and company allowable claim was revised from 100%
allowable to 25% allowable under LTD.
