Nonprofit Overview
Causes: Business & Industry
Mission: The purpose of the oregon state council (osc) is to promote the educational and professional development of our members and to promote other non-profit purposes of the society of human resource management (shrm). We do this by providing a structure for shrm members in the state of oregon to consult together concerning the affairs, activities, needs, and problems faced by the human resource management practitioners in the state. The council serves as the communication link between shrm and the chapters.
Programs: Shrm increased awareness of local chapters in the state and benefits of shrm membership. Increased the membership numbers for chapters by 3%. The osc sent out an e-blast to at-large shrm members and at the annual legislative/employment law conference, we asked attendees at registration if they were an shrm member. If no, they were presented with information. Thirty people requested information about their local chapter.
to influence decision makers at the state level with their votes on employer/hr related issues and concerns and the impact they can have on the workplace. Advocacy director sent a letter to state representatives and encouraged chapter advocacy directors to do the same. Sb 1543 did not surface in 2014 and the workplace innovation and opportunity act passed and was signed into law in july 2014.
to increase awareness to the overall topic of diversity and inclusion as a necessary workplace conversation. We sold all of our seats at the state-wide diversity conference and had a waiting list which was 2x more attendance than in previous years.
