COMPENSATION STUDY UPDATE

The goal of the luncheon is to provide new hires the opportunity to meet and engage with each other and to interact with department heads and employees from other departments.
The luncheon also provides current team members and members of the executive staff the opportunity to learn more about the new hires and gauge their experience with CCAA thus far
During this month’s luncheon, new hires gained valuable insights on various departments with presentations from our Risk Management team on all things safety including filing Worker’s Comp claims and how CCAA recognizes employees that exhibit outstanding safety measures.
Finance department representatives provided great information on timekeeping and a quick refresher on functions of Paylocity such as requesting time-off, locating paystubs and W2s and what to do if an employee has an issue with payroll. The Access & Credentialing team provided information on ID Badges, parking decals, and SIDA training. The Procurement Department provided attendees information on how to make purchases HR rounded out the segment with information on the importance of employee feedback and encouraged all employees to participate in company surveys that are sent out

CCAA would love to have employees represent the airport at the event. If you or anyone in your department is interested in volunteering please fill out this link to register. Registration will include a T-shirt, boxed lunch, and a unique opportunity to volunteer in our community!
