Retail Survey Results


Our first survey focused on one of the biggest HR challenges for any retail or consumer products
company – Leave Administration. Many retail companies use in-house legal resources to advise
them on this issue, while others employ outside HR specialists to help guide them through often
difficult decisions. Some companies use an expanding network of outsourcing services to
administer their leave and disability programs. In our survey we asked: How does your
company handle leave of absence? Here is what we found out.		 

Number of employees: 49% - fewer than 100 employees; 33% - more than 100 employees, fewer than 500 employees; 18% - more than 500 employees, fewer than 1,500 employees.


Number of locations: 67% - fewer than 25 locations in the United States; 33% - more than 25, fewer than 50 locations in the United States


Revenue: 100% - under $500M


Does your company handle its ADA/FLMA or other leaves of absence administration, or does it outsource any or all functions? 83.3% - handled internally; 16.7% - outsourced


If administration is handled internally, how many people do you have performing the services? (Please include capacity) 66% - 1 to 2 with HR responsibilities; 17% - more than 2, fewer than 10 with HR responsibilities
