Dear Seniors,
Pl help me. I am in great dilemma.
Its going to be one year for me working in this organization as a Manager - HR. I feel i am losing my identity being here. I am the first HR appointed here. There's absolutely no value for HR in this organisation.
Recently, about few months back I initiated with Swipe card system for Time& attendance management. It was working well and self was monitoring the same. But the situation got worse since a month back. There's some other senior person joined recently in OTHER DEPARTMENT, and he without consulting self & my boss, made manally signing in muster for all employees mandatory. (this is over & above staff using the system for swipe in ie they have to do both). I was not signing the muster initially, but was signing in the device, coz i thought gradully we would do up with the muster thing (for which i had a discussion with my boss and he agreed). When this person happened to notice that i was not signing the muster, he called me and spoke v. rudely, he told me" I would take disciplanary action against you if you dont sign it. Go and sign the same". On me telling this to my boss, he told me to do what he says. No body is happy with this, they in turn asking me how didn't he consult me in this? whats the use of HR here .. blah.. blah.. I dont know what to reply them. He talks to me rudely even now. My boss is helpless in this, coz this person is a senior. I even brought it to the notice of my boss' boss. But nothing happned!! We have invested a lot of money and started off with the device and only wanted to make him understand that. Every organization is progressing with systems and we are going back to old days like a typical government office. With no support from the management, i am actually feeling very dejected and disappointed.
There are many other situations also, when its HR who has to take the decision, they dont consult me. The policy is they decide and i have to listen like a puppet, even if its wrong, i have to abide that.With such developments happening, even i have lost respect in front of staff, even they know there's no use of HR in this organization!!
Seniors, pl tell me how to tacke this situation?
Regards.
