Communicating Benefits Information via Social Media

Employee Benefit News features an article on using social media to communicate benefits news to employees. Using venues such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Wikis, and blogs, among other things, HR professionals can creatively engage employees to communicate short, quick bits of information.

A recent study by Watson Wyatt, the article describes, found that:

"almost two-thirds of companies plan to increase their use of social media in 2010.

However, nearly half (48%) have diminished their print communication over the past 24 months."
