Milestone Three (Section II)
Revisions: Recommendations
The top percent responded as important in the quantitative data and mentioned in the
qualitative data. After analyzing both the first and foremost change that needs to be addressed
are the starting and current pay for the employees. Pay should be kept competitive to retain our
hard-working employees and attract strongly dedicated employees. Employees who see that
they will make more for the same position at another job will most likely leave their current
company. It's not just the pay that will retain the employees but the benefits and recognition that
the company must provide to make them stay. Determining the next recommendation to
improve health insurance. As presented in the qualitative data, employees would like health
insurance that can provide some type of incentive for employees who keep a check on their
health. Just like Medtronic's insurance that provides an earring point system to claim rewards
and $20 coverage for a gym membership. This recommendation will motivate the employees to
get regular checkups or accumulate steps that will benefit the company by having energized
As shown in both qualitative and quantitative data employees would like more PTO and not
have to use their PTO as paid sick leave. When companies don't offer sick leave employees
feel that their well-being isn't important. Not only do the employees feel uncared for but they will
still show up to work, avoid using their PTO, and risk other employees getting sick. Where if sick
Ieave is provided employees may seek medical care for their current illness (Heathfield, 2018).
Sick leave may also be used when taking care of an ill family member, with the employee's
average age where most have children, this will show employees that their family matters and
their well-being. Finally recommended that the supervisors revise their evaluations and have the
proper training for them. Showing that employees feel like managers aren't noticing the "extra
mile" or have no options for safety professional development or general training (Emerging
Pharmaceutical and Medtronics Comparison., n.d.). Reevaluating the supervisors and their duty

and proper training will help them know what they should be looking for and who they should be
promoting/rewarding and provide proper feedback.
The recommendations will also follow for part-time employees. Increasing the salary
amount for part-time employees, adding PTO/sick leave, and providing proper training will help
develop the company. The average of part-time workers is similar to the age and demographics
of full-time, which will benefit them especially if they have families. The only issue would be the
compensation premium package cost for them to pay. This issue seems to be problematic with
other companies as well, which is why most companies don't offer part-time employees health
insurance. Regarding all the other recommendations will be beneficial for part-time. This will
help the company grow with each full-time and part-time employee.
