What is the ecological fallacy? The ecological fallacy is the error of assuming that inferences about individuals or organizations can be made from findings relating to aggregate data. For example, official statistics might demonstrate a positive relationship between size of firm and the number of labour disputes involving strike action. Such a finding could be taken to imply that employees in larger firms are more likely than those in small firms to take strike action. However, it would be wrong to draw such an inference about individual firms or groups of employees from aggregate data. A particular large firm may show quite low levels of strike activity, while a particular small firm might show a high level. The fallacy can arise for several reasons—the reason highlighted in this case being that it may not be the size of the firm that is responsible for the level of strike activity

Career planning and management is a crucial element in employee retention. An important part of this equation is maintaining the consistency and relevance of the initial career plan established during the onboarding process and feedback along the way. However, there is often a significant discrepancy between initial plans and the reality on the ground, and this can lead to disappointment and frustration for beginners and stress for managers. #valoria #competence #experience #business #trust

The arbitrator dismissed the union's grievance, clarifying that the company’s payment of 40 working days’ notice fulfilled the requirements of both the collective agreement and Alberta’s Employment Standards Code. For HR and labour professionals, this case serves as an important example of the complexities in interpreting collective agreements and employment standards legislation.

60 MINUTES OVERTIME  How "prebunking" misinformation works By Will Croxton March 24, 2024 / 7:30 PM EDT / CBS News This week on 60 Minutes, correspondent Lesley Stahl reported on the ongoing debate over how social media companies, including Meta, X and Google, moderate harmful content, like false medical information and hate speech, on their platforms. Some critics say these companies are not doing enough to combat the proliferation of this content on their sites. At the same time, some politicians, like Rep. Jim Jordan, are accusing the companies of colluding with the government to silence conservative voices online. 60 Minutes spoke with Sander van der Linden, a professor of social psychology and director of the Social Decision-Making Laboratory at Cambridge University. Van der Linden's research centers on how people interact with misleading or false information on social media, and why some end up believing things that are either half-true or completely false. Van der Linden told Stahl that misinformation, content that is entirely false, exists on social media, but misleading information, like half-truths and biased narratives, is much more prevalent. https://lnkd.in/gCUtr5Ug
