On the plus side of employee leasing

Article Abstract:

A new wrinkle on the human resources frontier is employee leasing, an arrangement by which a company uses permanent support staff without maintaining in-house employees. The advantages of such an arrangement include: improved benefits, since an employee leasing company can provide the economics of scale to a large group; administrative costs are reduced; and certain tax advantages. The situation is tricky, however, with many Internal Revenue Service regulations and other rules related to labor laws that must be followed.

Working women and employee benefits

Article Abstract:

The concept of comparable worth for working women states that it is necessary to provide equal pay for different work which has the same value. Critics of comparable worth claim that enforcement would infringe the right of companies and labor unions to establish wage scales through collective bargaining. Critics also charge that comparable worth for employment compensation could lead to reduced pay scales in male-dominated positions and bankruptcy for some companies.
