EMS organizations face unprecedented workforce challenges. Recruitment and retention of EMS professionals is consistently ranked as the most pressing issue for EMS leaders. And all of this occurs in an increasingly complex regulatory landscape when it comes to your HR practices.
From the recruitment process to the termination process and throughout the employment life cycle, our experienced team of professionals will help guide your EMS agency through the complex labor and employment regulatory environment. We also work with EMS agencies to provide leadership education and development and aid your recruitment and retention by helping you foster the type of organizational culture where people want to be.
PWW|AG professionals advise EMS and Mobile Healthcare agencies on the full range of issues affecting the employment process. This includes hiring and recruitment, application processes, interview and pre-employment testing and more. We also consult with EMS agencies regarding employee conduct (both on and off-duty), as well as discipline, termination and employee separation issues.
We also help design and implement workplace compliance programs so that EMS agencies can be assured that their workforce policies, procedures and practices are up to date and effective. We also provide a full range of training and education for EMS agency human resource officers, and the entire EMS workforce to help prevent discrimination, unfair labor practices and other workplace liability issues.
PWW|AG assists EMS organizations in preparing employee and personnel handbooks and other workplace manuals. We write specific workplace related policies, tailored to your agency, such as absenteeism and leave of absence policies, policies on the use of cell phones and digital devices, social networking, employee conduct rules and other important topics that must be addressed in today’s dynamic EMS workplace.
