MEETING MINUTES

Meeting: North Star SHRM Chapter Meeting
Date: June 13, 2007
8:00 a.m.

Listed below is a recap of the items discussed at our last Chapter meeting:


  • Meeting was opened by President Bruce Tyler introducing today's guest speaker as follows: Jeff Johnson presented The Most Difficult ADA/FMLA Issues. One hour of PHR/SPHR recertification credit will be applied for those individuals attending.

  • The following agenda items were discussed in the business portion of meeting:

    1. May minutes were approved with a change of Josh Johnson to Jeff Johnson.

    2. Approved Business Liability insurance of one million dollars to American Family Insurance, Kathy Blake Agency, 9201 Quaday Ave. NE, Suite 203, Otsego, MN 55330, Phone 763-241-9229 at an annual premium of $212.00.

    3. State Speaker's bureau, approved to go ahead and set it up with help from National and State Council.

    4. Discussed SHRM certification. Members can apply for a $750 scholarship for class prep and test costs. Also discussed our chapter giving a scholarship to a member if their company does not allow for reimbursement. This was approved by members.

    5. Discussion on the Chapter Bylaws was held. The Bylaws on the web site are the wrong ones. New and revised bylaws were approved and signed by National late last year. Bruce will get Gail to put on the web site.

    6. Approved a donation of $255.00 to the SHRM Foundation. We will need to send a check.

    7. Our Chapter did not receive any points on the CAPS report last year for not having an ethics policy. The new bylaws say we will use the National ethics policy and this was approved. The ethic policy needs to get onto the web site. Additionally, the new bylaws and ethics policy need to be sent to all members.

    8. There will not be a meeting in July. Bruce reminded everyone of the programs for August and September. The October meeting is the State Conference, so no chapter meeting will be held.

    9. The following Chapter Officer positions are open: President Elect, Foundation Director, Legal Updates, Membership Director, Professional Development Program Director, and School-to-Work Director. If you are interested in volunteering or have any questions about any of the open positions, please email Bruce at: bcntyler@sherbtel.net.


  • Legislative Update - No updates at this time.

MEETING ADJOURNED at 9:45 a.m.
