This post could be considered (in the Internet world) from many moons ago. I just found it. Yes, I’m very progressive that way. It’s an absolutely wonderfully written article filled with great information on unifying an enterprise with an HR portal. Originally published in HR Magazine back in 2006, I found it to still resonate in 2010 and even beyond. The points explored by Drew Robb are THAT good. I’ve reposted it below for your reading pleasure.
I encourage you to share it with your HR colleagues.

Employee self-service has well-proven benefits to businessin particular, better service to employees while cutting down on HRs workload. And the best way to deliver HR services is through an employee portal that gives workers single sign-on access to all services.

Original Posts: Multiple Generations @ Work: What Should You Do Differently?, Are You Ready to Manage Five Generations of Workers?
Does retirement look a little further off now than it did just a few years ago? If you are over 62, odds are you’re putting off retirement at least two to three years, and you may even be planning on working beyond 70. If you’re over 50, and lost 40% or more of your nest egg, you are about twice as likely to delay retirement as those who lost less. According to the World Health Organization, men and women who are healthy at 60 will, on average, be physically capable of working until they are 74 and 77, respectively. Combine these statistics and the newest employees entering the workforce might not be joining their parents or grandparents, they might be joining their great-grandparents.
