Subject: Request to Conduct Research on Tuition Reimbursement for Employee
INTRODUCTION
I am writing to request permission to research the potential of implementing a tuition reimbursement program for employees at Community Care Service (CCS). If CCS is implementing a tuition reimbursement program; it can help encourage employees to develop skills that can be beneficial for the company. The tuition reimbursement program can help decrease the turnover rate and improve employee receive more promotion. In general, tuition reimbursement pay dividends for the employer and the employee.
CHALLENGE
Within the past few months, Community Care Service has reached its highest level of turnover. Many employees have decided to leave the company to seek a better opportunity somewhere else. Some of these employees have been complaining about not getting any promotion, and the company doesn’t offer enough benefit. Each time an employee resigns, it cost the company money, and other employees suffer. As an employee of the company, it can

My research will focus on the benefit of offering a tuition reimbursement program for an employee who is interesting in furthering their education. I will research on what type of stipulation does the company need to put in place after implementing the tuition reimbursement program. For instance, what kind of grade employee must receive to get reimbursed? Usually, the amount of reimbursement is contingent upon the grade received by the employee. Moreover, I will research on having everyone who is interesting in furthering their education sign a contract that they will work for the company for ten years after they have complete their degree. The agreement will ensure that the company's interest protected and the employee stays to work for a
One of the biggest issues that many students and parents have concerning college education is the cost. Due to the state of the economy, affording college has become very difficult. Fortunately, the government is able to provide financial assistance in addition to the University’s own financial aid. Case is a private institution which means that it costs more compared to a public college. The tuition for Case was approximately, $38,000 in 2007 not including living or book expenses. Even though there was a tuition rate increase for every following year. The only way I was able to afford the tuition at Case was because of the scholarship I earned. In addition, I received federal grants and a substantial amount of aid from the University. I did not have a free ride but I received a great deal of financial help to pay for my college education.
The next problem is poor morale. Morale is the job satisfaction, outlook, and feelings of an employee. Right now, employees do not feel secure within the business and are rebelling against it. They do not have a positive outlook for the future of the business and feel betrayed because of all of the people getting let go. The employees right now have a poor morale due to all these factors.
...on rates have shown to improve when the facility is practicing patient- and family- centered care, which ultimately can increase the reimbursement rates from Medicare and Medicaid. The increase reimbursement rates are extremely important for non-profit health care system such as OhioHealth Mansfield whose revenue comes from over sixty percent in Medicare and Medicaid funding. The PFCC self-assessment tool was analyzed based on OhioHealth Mansfield with strengths and weaknesses, which one big weakness consisted in the personnel domain which consists of support for staff, and the utilization of patients and family involvement in decision making and new employees. The system change of adding the new role of the patient navigator allows collaboration with a diverse team including patient and family members, along with ultimately increasing patient satisfaction rates.

...gree and believe that they could get real results if everyone would consistently apply the company’s principles. I have learned personally in the business world consistency means a lot, all employees should have the same consequences. By letting go employees, managers and executives shows that the rules apply to all levels. It will cause everyone involved to have more respect for the company even if they don’t agree with the decision.
The current health care reimbursement system in the United State is not cost effective, and politicians, along with insurance companies, are searching for a new reimbursement model. A new health care arrangement, value based health care, seems to be gaining momentum with help from the biggest piece of health care legislation within the last decade; the Affordable Care Act is pushing the health care system to adopt this arrangement. However, the community of health care providers is attempting to slow the momentum of the value based health care, because they wish to maintain their autonomy under the current fee-for-service reimbursement system (FFS).
In today’s ever growing workforce the job market competition is becoming increasingly higher and more difficult with each passing year. This is forcing people to go back to school and pursue an education or further expanded their education beyond an undergrad degree. Although more people are going back to school they all are not footing the bill all by them self. It is 2014 and more employers are giving the opportunity of going back to school to their employees by providing education assistance programs or tuition reimbursement. According to the Elearning Glossary on elearners.com, tuition reimbursement is defined as “An employee benefit offered by employers to fully or partially cover the costs of tuition for post-secondary or training courses” (Eleaners , 2012). When it comes to tuition reimbursement there are numerous amounts of factors a company has to plan by and employees must know to get their true worth of a company’s tuition assistance program. Employees are the only ones who see education as an investment.
This system provides annual statics on Medicare payment amounts for institutional providers. A nurse leader can use HCRIS to find other similar institutions with whom to compare reimbursement rates and use this information to make necessary adjustments (“Healthcare Cost Report”, 2016). Lastly, nurse leaders can also use cost-to-charge ratios, volume-based measures, per diem rates, and balanced scorecards to gain better insight of unit reimbursement (Liberty University,
While implementing solutions to the high turnover rate, companies must know and understand the law. The law is created and enforced by the government to prevent any discrimination or biases between the company and employees. It also prevents the strong, corporations, from taking advantage of the weak, employees.
With the rapid growth of college tuition, it has become an important issue in higher education. College Tuition is simply defined as the charge or fee for instruction, at a private school or a college or a university. Most people agree today that college tuition is too high or that it needs to be completely dismissed. There are some however, that may disagree with the claim about college tuition and state that college tuition is necessary for college growth, and it’s primary purpose is to pay for college expenses to support the institution financially. Research shows that college tuition is too high and that debt has become a standard in America after attending post-secondary school.

Issues relating to nondisclosure agreements between employees and their employers Non-disclosure agreements (NDA) also commonly known as Confidentiality agreements or proprietary information agreement is a standard form of an agreement between two companies, individuals or between an individual and a company. This agreement will protect the organization by keeping the vital knowledge of company information confidential under the conditions covered in the agreement. Furthermore, a nondisclosure agreement contains the penalties an employee would have to face in an event of breach of such contract. According to Heathfeild S. (2015), “A non-disclosure agreement is a written legal contract between an employer and employee. The non-disclosure agreement
Employee turnover in organization is one of the main issues that extensively affect the overall performance of a workplace (Tariq, Ramzan and Riaz, 2013). Various studies show that employee turnover negatively affect the overall efficiency at the organization (Tariq, Ramzan and Riaz, 2013). Xiancheng, (2013) mentioned the employee turnover is a method of personal issues who decided to stop associate with the company for better advantage. There are two types of turnover which are voluntary and involuntary turnover. Voluntary turnover can be defined as the termination of the official and the psychological contract between the employee and employer (Krausz, 2002; Macdonald, 1999; Mclean Parks et al, 1999; Rousseau, 1995) while involuntary turnover inescapably lead to direct negative results such as current job is insecurity, work difficulty, and status fluctuation (Gowan and Gatewood, 1997). However, other researchers such as Haven-Tang and Jones, (2012) concluded poor management, lack of salary, bad working environment and paucity of job opportunities could be the highest causes of turnover among organization. This statement was support by Kusluvan et al., (2010) where is they had stated that poor management, low payment of salary, work environment and lack of employees’ job opportunities on the organization will make employee want to quit from their job. Turnover intention situation will appear when labour had feeling that they want to quit from current job, so voluntary and involuntary turnover will become final stage for them as their decision (AlBattat and Mat Som, 2013) but it is different for researchers such as Mosadeghrad, Ferlie and Rosbenberg (2013) when they conclude that employee turno...
It all means a wish to quit and move on to something better and many employees are there right now. I am currently employed at a very popular hospital and I am currently seeing job dissatisfaction first hand. In the department that I work at many employees are showing their true views on how they are unsatisfied with the job. Many people feel that the job is becoming very stressful with the demands from upper management. Many employees are working long hours and are not receiving any recognition for it. In the past few months I have seen many employees quit and move on to other positions. Many of the ones remaining are not even putting 100 percent into their work because they feel like they should not if they will not be recognized for
