Dear All!
I have a few queries in core HR and administration.
1. What can be considered in core HR? (As per my knowledge, I think payroll, employee attendance, and absenteeism will come into core HR). Can you please suggest what topics will be covered in this core HR?
2. Is administration a part of core HR, or should it be considered as a different module?
3. Will recruitment be considered in any of these above topics?
Can you please provide me with some information regarding these?

Core HR functions will include Recruitment & Joining formalities, Performance Management, Compensation, and Training & Development. Employee Relations is also a core HR function depending on what you do in the function of ER.
In recent days, I have seen people discussing that Recruitment is no longer a core HR function because in most organizations, this process is more frequently outsourced compared to other HR functions. In some organizations, we can hardly find a Recruitment team. However, personally, I feel that Recruitment is still a core HR function and is a function best performed by HR professionals.
Regarding Administration roles, I have to admit that this is a tricky question. In some organizations, the HR role also includes taking care of transportation facilities for employees, security, safety measures, etc., whereas in other organizations, these are considered purely as Administration functions. This is a topic that can be debated, and it may end without a clear answer. Some HR professionals argue that these functions are core HR functions and recruit HR aspirants into these roles. However, when these individuals seek a career change, they may face situations where HR professionals in other organizations do not consider their experience in these areas as appropriate HR functional experience and reject their applications.

Hi all,
Please consider the following:
a) Core HR: Includes:
1) Talent management - acquisition, retention, and development
2) Compensation and benefits - designing and implementing pay structures, variable/deferred pay/bonuses. Payroll is just one part of it.
3) Employee engagement
4) Employee welfare
5) Training
6) Depending on the nature of the industry, even industrial relations are part of Core HR.
Administration includes:
Housekeeping, security, transport, and any other facility management areas. Travel and hotel arrangements, as well as front office management, come under the broad reference of administration.
Hope the basics are clear.
Kind regards,

Since employee welfare and benefits concerns are covered under the core HR functions, group insurance (medical or personal) will be processed by HR personnel themselves in collaboration and coordination with the insurance company, as well as the finance department, at the time of crediting the salary accounts of the employees.

When it comes to the core functions of HR, we tend to miss out on one of the most important functions of HR: the legal aspect of HR. Particularly in the manufacturing sector, an HR professional plays a very important role in legal aspects such as labor law, factory acts, and other statutory compliance. A human resource professional is better known as an Industrial Relations professional in the manufacturing sector when dealing with statutory issues.
