Workforce Management
Comprehensive Data Analysis Guide (In Development). DHRM is developing a Comprehensive Data Analysis Guide that will provide information on what HCM data is available, where data is located, how to analyze it, and how to understand it. The guide will launch with a limited scope but will continually grow, with new sections and items being added over time, to eventually evolve into a comprehensive guide. It will be accessible in the Workforce Planning Program section of the Virginia Learning Center at a later date.

Surrender Campaign Scheduling!
Chances are you already know that eating too much sugar isn’t good for you. Weight gain, heart disease, diabetes and depression are just some of the problems associated with excess sugar intake. The great news is that CommonHealth has created a sweet new campaign to help tackle this problem. The ‘Sweet Surrender’ program offers many tips and practical ways to identify and reduce added sugars in your diet. For instance, did you realize that 75% of all packaged foods contain added sugar? For more information or to schedule a CommonHealth program for your agency contact wellness@dhrm.virginia.gov. |
