On June 7, 2012 the South Texas Chapter of Society of Human Resources Management (SHRM) had their second quarter meeting at the Victoria Advocate conference room. The attendees thoroughly enjoyed the "When Work Works" presentation put on by Otis L. Scott, Jr.,SHRM Texas State Council Diversity and Inclusion Director. The presentation gave an interesting perspective on our future workplace and workers and what the world will look like in 2020. Along with learning "when work works" the attendees also heard from Dr. Craig Chang and Misty Smith from the Center of Excellence Bariatric Surgery. They enlightened the group with information about obesity and its effects on the workplace as well as how to motivate employees to be healthier. Deya Morgan and Theresa Cochran from Premier Sleep Disorders Center also spoke at the meeting and helped everyone to understand how sleep apnea affects the workplace and the solutions with regards to providing testing and treatment.
