Role Of Hr In A New Company - Doc Download

Dear Team,

I have joined a company where I am the first HR. Could you please suggest what are the main things I have to implement first?

Please help me as I am in urgent need of this.

Thank you.

Regards,

Your role should be to make other department people understand what HR is and why HR is important. Then, go one step further and maintain a close relationship with the other department HODs. Coming to the statutory part, ensure timely payment and regular statutory contributions. I have completed all these tasks and have now moved elsewhere. If you have any doubts in implementing certain concepts, kindly email me, and I will guide you. And do not forget about the recruitment part too!

Hello,

You need to first understand the scope of HR in the organization. There is a clear division between 1) Transactional HR and 2) Transformational HR.

Now, for any organization that is hiring an HR for the first time, you need to devote 90% of your time to Transactional HR first. It will involve setting processes related to attendance, holidays, leave policies, computation of leaves, proper documentation, timely payroll preparation, maintaining personal files and records for each employee, including resumes, offer letters, appointment letters, copies of testimonials, previous employment details, release letters from previous companies, etc.

Transactional HR in the second phase should also focus on components like periodic performance management, issues with increments or promotions, bonus calculations, gratuity, and ensuring timely statutory payments in coordination with the accounts department.

Once the organization becomes more process-oriented as set by you, then you can concentrate on Transformational HR. This involves finding ways to add value to the current employee base. You need to develop policies and processes that make employees feel that you are working for their betterment and for creating a positive work atmosphere in the organization. Concentrate on training and development programs, etc.

I've tried to outline the expected role of an HR for you. Now, you need to explore and come up with the best approach. Best of luck!

Thanks,

Kuheli

Hello,

You have received a wonderful opportunity, perhaps a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, to independently set up the HR function in an organization from the word 'go'. You should be thrilled at this.

I would suggest the following:

Believe that the HR function is a strategic component of any organization. Proceed to identify the organization's vision, mission, philosophy, ethics, etc., from the entrepreneur. It is crucial at the outset to have this first-hand knowledge and to develop a relationship with the owners of the company.

Once you have this foundation in place, you can plan for your organization's present and future.

Develop clear job descriptions for each position.

Look into developing various HR policies.

Do not forget about various statutory compliances.

There is plenty to do!

Note the following:

Registration of the Company under Shop and Commercial establishment, registration under PF and ESI. Insurance of the Employees. This can be taken care of by CAs dealing with the above acts; get hold of a simple and sincere one. Attendance register. Salary register. Work profile of every employee/post. Reporting and evaluation. Promotion and increment policy. Sangla Lko.

Dear Pravin,

Attached is the summary of the gamut of HR activities. You may find it useful.

Thank you.

Hi All,

This is really good information. I have joined a startup company and am setting up the complete processes and policies here. It's a great learning experience. Any initiative you take will be a good initiative.

We posted an internal job advert for junior staff, and the cleaners at my workplace applied and got the job. Now I have to draft a job offer letter where they will first be employed as assembler trainees at the same salary, then have their salaries reviewed next month and backdated to the commencement date.

Please help me draft a letter. I am in need of it urgently.

1) Understand your organization's goals, objectives, and their requirements.
2) Make a plan on how to achieve them.
3) Manpower planning - determine how many people are required.
4) Prepare job specifications (skills, education, experience required for each position) based on the department's needs.
5) Prepare job descriptions outlining the roles, duties, and responsibilities of the hired personnel.
6) Evaluate jobs quantitatively and qualitatively.
7) Develop a compensation program including basic wage, DA (according to price increases and cost of living), and HRA (30% of basic wage).
8) Ensure fair and equitable wages for similar work.
9) Pay manual workers less than those in supervisory roles.
10) Offer salaries comparable to competitors in the industry.
11) Set performance standards, targets, and KRA within specified timelines.
12) Communicate and monitor progress against set standards.
13) Conduct assessments and evaluations.
14) Identify training needs.
15) Ensure wages comply with the Payment of Wages Act and Minimum Wages Act.
16) Provide counseling and feedback following performance appraisals.
17) Reward outstanding performance with monetary or non-monetary incentives and recognition (consider assigning a supervisory job title).
18) Offer incentives, skill-based pay, performance-based pay, benefits, and retirement benefits.
19) Recognize trade unions and engage in peaceful bargaining through mutual discussions, conciliation, and arbitration.
20) For companies operating globally, consider strategic predispositions:
a) Ethnocentric - hire from the parent country.
b) Polycentric - hire from the host country where the subsidiary operates.
c) Geocentric - hire globally based on talent; go 'glocal' - think globally, act locally.
d) Regiocentric - hire within specific regions.

I am a fresher right now and seeking a job. Can you please suggest how I should prepare myself for the interview? There are some conditions applied: I passed out with an M.B.A in HR, not from a top B-school. I am a little bit confused about which function I should concentrate on to make my career, one that has good opportunities in the future.

Please suggest, I'll be highly obliged to you.

Dear Seniors,

Thanks for sharing this. I have joined a company where I am the first HR person. I have never done a performance appraisal before. It's time for appraisals in our company, and I need help regarding the same.

Regards, Rita.
