February 2020 note from the editor

    We are very excited about our February issue. We have some fantastic articles about the hot topics in HR technology including an article on daily pay, one of the hot new benefits; and payroll protections. There is also an excellent article on new HR trends and their impact, plus 2020 top financial wellness trends. In addition, we have a very informative article on hospital safety grades you don’t want to miss. And since it’s February, we have an excellent article on love at work. Yes, it’s okay!
