I cannot thank the Mauldin Group enough for their help. They are responsible for all of the new clients that I have acquired over the past few weeks. Before they worked on the SEO on my website, I rarely got any hits on my website that came from search engines. After the Mauldin Group got a hold of my website and worked their SEO magic, I started to receive hits almost immediately, and all of the clients that have contacted me recently all found my website through Google. The Mauldin Group has done amazing work for me and I recommend them to anyone that needs to boost their web presence. ...read more

While Google does not often confirm the algorithmic changes or updates it implements, some credible sources claim that it changes its search algorithm around 500 to 600 times each year. Admittedly, most of these changes are relatively minor and may have very little effect on website rankings and traffic but the search engine giant also rolls out some major updates from time to time – and this can have a significant impact on the search engine results.

By: Jessica Wickham The Pregnancy Discrimination Act (PDA) of 1978 protects pregnant women from workplace discrimination. The law prohibits employers from discriminating against an employee or prospective employee on the basis of pregnancy for hiring, firing, pay, job assignments, promotions, layoff, training, fringe benefits, such as leave and health insurance, and any other term or condition of employment. Although the total number of pregnant employees in a given year is a small fraction of the workforce, most women today do work while pregnant. The only individual that can tell women she should not work is her physician. Pregnant women have been fired from their jobs for following doctor's orders. For accommodations such as taking bathroom breaks or having a stool to sit on behind a cash register, pregnant workers have been forced onto unpaid leave or fired. Until recently, there have been no real attempts by Congress to take action and address this issue at the federal level. The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA), which is currently being considered in Congress, would address this gap in the PDA by requiring employers to make temporary accommodations for pregnancy, childbirth, and related medical conditions. This would be similar to accommodations employers must make for persons with disabilities. The Pregnant Workers Fairness Act is very important to pregnant women, especially benefiting those who work in physically demanding jobs and workplaces with less flexible policies. Remind pregnant workers that it's their responsibility to inform you of any special accommodations, changes in their leave plans, expected return-to-work date, and employment status. If a pregnant worker is underperforming or engaging in misconduct, take the same steps you would with any other employee. Talk to them, document all conversations in writing, warn/discipline them if the issue escalates, and provide support if necessary.

By: Gary Wheeler Business owners take pride in running their business as they should. Their goal is to do things efficiently and effectively. Unfortunately, their level of commitment does not always trickle down to their staff. This can cause business owners to be become frustrated with their employees. Being frustrated is understandable however if an employee violates a policy or does not act in the best interest of the business, deal with the situation appropriately. Don̢۪t let it get to you. I have seen business owners let it get to them. When this happens, they focus on the employee v. the behavior of the employee. It is almost like a personal vengeance to get back at the employee. I observed a recent situation where an employee and the owner had a series of conflicts and the employee eventually resigned. The owner was determined to make sure the employee not be paid for two days the employee was not able to work. This adjustment was carried over into a second pay period and the employee was shorted four-days of pay v. two. The owner refused to talk with the employee and vice versa. The employee was eventually paid for the two-days that were taken out of their check by mistake a month later. The business owner was so upset with the employee and determined to make sure the employee paid for their mistakes that they made mistakes along the way. These mistakes could have cost the business owner an audit and fines from the Department of Labor. They had their gut in the situation and could not think clearly. This type of behavior can damage the reputation of the business, the business owner and cost the business money. As a business owner, you need to make sure you operate with integrity and beyond approach. Even when you are frustrated and decide to terminate an employee, you need to treat the employee with respect. Letting your emotions take over is never a good thing. Leave your gut out of it. ...read more
