Employment and Diversity
 
The Importance of Hispanic Representation in Human Resources
As the U.S. Hispanic population continues to grow, ensuring Hispanic representation in the HR functions of recruitment, diversity, compensation, benefits, training and payroll becomes increasingly important.

Time Management in Other Cultures
Managers and multicultural employees can sometimes have different ideas about how time should be managed at work. LatPro expert Graciela Kenig gives tips on coaching employees so your expectations are met.

Have You Experienced Employment Discrimination?
Do you think you've ever been the victim of workplace discrimination because of your race or ethnicity, or do you feel you've been treated fairly as a minority professional? Let us know in our poll!

Hispanic growth expanding into more communities
Rapidly growing numbers of Hispanics are fanning out across the eastern half of the U.S. and settling in rural and suburban counties far from traditional immigrant strongholds, according to Census numbers.

Demand for Court Translators on the Rise
More than just being bilingual, court interpreters must be able to interpret simultaneously, understand the judicial process and have a solid grasp of forensic and scientific terminology. Knowledge of country-specific slang and terms is also crucial to accurate interpretation
