With reporting season in full swing, many ASX-listed companies are releasing their financial results to the market.

These results are used to cast judgement on the performance of the company, led by the chief executive officer (CEO). Amid all the information released by the company, there is one figure all eyes will fixate on – earnings. 

The earnings figure will have wide-ranging impacts on company employees, investors, and everyday Australians who have their superannuation invested in the stock market.

Despite its importance, the financial reporting process that goes on behind the scenes to decide the earnings figure is hidden to those outside...

On August 19, 2024, the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will launch a groundbreaking initiative known as the "Path to Citizenship" program. This program marks a significant shift in US immigration policy, offering a beacon of hope to over 500,000 undocumented foreign national spouses and 50,000 foreign national stepchildren of US citizens who entered the country without proper documentation. The program's primary aim is to provide these individuals with a clear pathway to permanent residency and, ultimately, citizenship. A key component of this initiative is the implementation of immigration parole, which allows eligible non-citizens to reside and work in the United States without fear of deportation.

Editor's note: This article was originally published on April 11, 2022. It has since been updated.

But this doesn't have to be the case, according to Human Resources expert and TikTok user Daniel Space—better known as Dan From HR on the social media platform. Space believes that managers should respond to an employee leaving a company with support.
