What Exactly Is Employee Relations and What Are Its Key Responsibilities?

Dear All,

Could someone please explain "Employee Relations" and what the major responsibilities involved in Employee Relations are? Kindly explain.

Regards, Srinivas B

Can you please explain in what context you are asking this?

As the definition of "Employee Relations" is given in the ID Act, one can easily understand the meaning of the same from there.

Dear Mr. Rajeev Verma,

I am not asking about "as per Act." Nowadays, many organizations create the position of "Employee Relations Executive." I do not understand the major responsibilities in that position. I have knowledge of coordination activities. Please explain the major responsibilities of an Employee Relations Executive.
