Hi Shefali,
Our members have given you the required answers professionally or should I say technically and hope you are feeling boosted. Apart from what you take in mind about the above said suggestions would like to add on some simple things for you to feel good.
I can understand that from a layman insight the thought has raised and I would like to put it in the same way.EVERY DEPT IN AN ORGANISATION HAS ITS OWN FUNCTIONS AND IMPORTANCE.EACH DEPT IS DEPENDENT ON THE OTHER like MUTUAL RELATIONS&BENEFITS.
Very true that many of them have a same feeling.Even I have come across comments like that though I dint work for HR.I worked for a shared service centre orgn that houses 8000+counting employees(n one location hub alone) and is globally established too.It has a HR shared service centre with dedicated heads and reportees and no.of sub-units within also.I must say they always come out with innovative ideas,do every means to train,motivate,retain employess and also maintain every rules and policies.(i'm actually always was inspired by the work they do for employee engagement)...But guess what.. still the other depts would just comment about them that they simply loitre around doing no work or showing off...(personally I feel this comment is purely the outcome of certain exhibition of behaviour of individuals ..you can find these kind in any dept..1 or 2 pests)...
From a common man's insight what I would like to say is all the other dept's functions are dependent on s/w's,h/w's,paper work,codings,monetary funds etc etc, Whereas the work of HR (as our members above said) basically depends on one of the biggest asset of the firm that is "People".All the work revolves around the "People" you see..the policies,rules..etc. It deals with the skills of handling the employees and retaining them to the best and thus making its own orgn competent in the global market.Being a part of takes to do everything right from taking health care of employees,infrastructure,welfare,policies,media,to answering the CEO.
So you can see now, work of the HR is more phsycological,variable,logistic,continuous whereas the other departments is constant,more of to do at a place,sticking to standards.If HR is soft core then other depts are hard core..and both must go hand-in-hand for a successful orgn.So, its human nature to pass all those comments.being a HR next time you hear the same comment just nod your head and smile at them saying yes you are right..we are being paid to look after you all and walk away(i know its pretty difficult to do this..but just give it a try)
pls correct me if I'm wrong.
