New HR Executives: How to Create a Positive and Flexible Office Environment

Dear Friends,

Here is a post I have created for new executives who have joined the managerial cadre. It is a guide on how to maintain a good office environment.

"Managing people can be an experience that makes you feel really good about yourself - as long as you understand that it's not a tidy, orderly, predictable business. Flexibility and maturity will come in handy. So does a dose of good-natured humor that brightens everyone's day."

This may be useful for all new HR executives.

THIS ARTICLE IS DEDICATED TO ALL NEWLY HR EXECUTIVES/MANAGERS WHO HAVE JOINED IN THE FIELD

PBS KUMAR

Respected sir,

That is really helpful information. Can I bother you with this query? My organization is a Public Ltd. Co., with shareholdings by Government Financial Institutions. My query is regarding PF. Up till now, we were hiring people on contract/training for 3 months. Upon successful completion, they are absorbed on probation for a period of one year, and then they are confirmed. Currently, I have a total of 23 staff (9 confirmed employees, 7 probationers, 6 trainees, and 1 contract person).

We want to introduce PF. Is it mandatory to extend PF benefits to probationers as well? We will not extend it to trainees because in their letter, it is clearly mentioned: "Your employment in the company will be for the purpose of the company's work, which is purely temporary and of a casual nature and will be on a temporary basis initially for a period of three months from the date of your joining. Your employment in the company would automatically come to an end on the expiry of the said period of three months. The company is under no obligation to issue a formal order of termination or to give a prior notice in this behalf. No compensation is payable in termination of your service." Can we just extend it to confirmed employees? The reason is if the person resigns during probation, then it will involve a lot of administrative work. What will happen to their PF contribution then? I heard there is a 5-year restriction on withdrawal from the date of becoming a member. What is our organization supposed to do in this case?

In short:
1. Will there be a violation of the PF Act if I extend PF benefits only to confirmed employees?
2. How should we handle the PF contribution of a person who serves only one month?
3. Is there anything else we have to pay besides 12%, i.e., equal to employees' contribution? What is this administrative charge, etc.? What will be my accounting entry in this case?

Sir, please answer me because I could not find any of this information on the PF website.

Thank you,
Pari.

Thank you, Mr. Kumar.

It is useful since I'm a new HR Executive from the UAE, M. Saravanan, but I don't have enough ideas on it because I'm basically a BE CSE holder. I don't know, fortunately or unfortunately, I have just joined here, and I'm working well, but I need enough ideas on it. I would humbly ask you how I could develop myself further (need guidance on how to do MBA online and HR courses). I know you are highly experienced since I could get a lot of golden points regarding this.

Please reply. I'm waiting for your prompt response, my friend.

Thank you once again,
Saravanan M

Dear Mr. Kumar, 'A new HR Executive Handbook' is a great endeavor on your part to help the young managers. It will provide them with specific guidelines to manage a small office to start with. You have covered all the relevant topics required at this stage.
