  • Automatic Payroll Deduction Program
    Automatic Payroll Deduction Program The APD Program allows you to: • Review participating vendor product and service information at your worksite on non-work time. • Select optional insurance coverage not provided by the State under your current employee benefit package. • Pay for optional insurance benefits through payroll deduction from your after tax take home pay. The State of Iowa does not endorse or sponsor any vendor, or the products and services they provide, it does allow the premiums for insurance policies, not offered by the State of Iowa, to be paid through payroll deduction as a post tax deduction. Payroll deduction is a simple and easy way to pay your insurance premiums. Any resulting coverage an employee may decide to purchase will be based on a contract between the employee and the participating APD vendor. The State as the employer is not part of the insurance relationship. Any questions or issues that may arise with regard to a chosen policy should be directed to the participating APD vendor. A vendor can participate by meeting the requirements of the APD program but not be offered as a payroll deduction option if enrollment does not meet the mandated threshold. Current participating vendors are listed below. Only those highlighted in yellow are offered as a payroll deduction option at this time.

University of Kentucky Master's Theses. 155. https://uknowledge.uky.edu/gradschool_theses/155 This Thesis is brought to you for free and open access by the Graduate School at UKnowledge. It has been accepted for inclusion in University of Kentucky Master's Theses by an authorized administrator of UKnowledge. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT OF THESIS “WHAT’S HAPPENING” @TWITTER: A USES AND GRATIFICATIONS APPROACH The uses and gratifications approach places power in the hands of the audience and is a helpful perspective when trying to understand media usage, exposure, and effects. However, while the uses and gratifications approach has been applied regularly to traditional media, research explaining why people use new social media networks as well as the gratifications they obtain from them is scarce at best. This thesis provides a comprehensive overview of the uses and gratifications approach as well as the current literature about social media networks. An argument is built within the thesis to study Twitter as one social media network through the uses and gratifications theoretical lens. Research questions are provided and a survey of 216 college undergraduates was conducted. Results show that people use a variety of Twitter functions, that the gratifications sought from Twitter are not the gratifications obtained from Twitter, and that people are careful about the types of information they share on the social media network.

But despite the importance of these aspects, employee satisfaction with their compensation and benefits packages remains low. According to a Conference Board report, “employees are least satisfied with their companies’ bonus plans, promotion policies, health plans and pensions”. Employers are missing critical opportunities to maximize employee job satisfaction and other organizational outcomes through their total rewards programs.1 In the book Dynamic Compensation for Changing organizations: People, Performance & Pay, The Hay Group asserts that traditional pay structures no longer keep pace with the emerging, strategy-focused organizations that exist in today’s globally competitive market.

  • Southern Company Town Hall Webcast – Thursday, April 16, 2020 Rough Transcript
    Southern Company Town Hall Webcast – Thursday, April 16, 2020 Rough Transcript Operator: Welcome to the Southern Company town hall webcast on April 16th, 2020. Throughout today's recorded presentation, all participants will be in a listen only mode. After the presentation, there will be an opportunity to ask questions. If you would like to ask a question via the web interface, simply type your question in the ask a question box and click send. If any participant has difficulty hearing the presentation, please submit your question via the same tool. I will now hand the presentation over to Tom Fanning, chairman, president, and CEO of Southern Company. Please go ahead, sir. Tom Fanning: Welcome, everybody, to this virtual town hall. I think in times like this, I love that phrase, communicate relentlessly. I don't think there's more we can do than keeping each other informed. And I think through the thought leadership of folks like Chris Womack and others, we decided this format may prove to be beneficial to us all. And to those of you who have not been on a call like this, this is going to feel like something we do about every two weeks. In fact, during the coronavirus, we've been doing it for a while every day, and then maybe three times a week. Now we're doing it about twice a week. This will feel like a Southern Company Management Council call with a little bit of an expanded universe. I know we have people all over the system listening, so let me just fill you in, roughly, on who's on the Southern Company Management Council.
