Starting an HR Department for a Medical Transcription Company: Where Do I Begin?

achutha
Hi,

How do I start up the HR department for a medical transcription company? The company is two years old. What policies and procedures should be followed? Where can we create policies and how should we start with them? Please help me in this regard.

Hi Achuta, I am trying to put some of my views on this.

Major Functions of HR

- Policy Formulation & Implementation
- Manpower Planning
- Recruitment & Formalities
- Employee File Management
- Training & Development
- Performance Appraisals
- Compensation & Benefits
- Payroll Administration
- Statutory Compliances
- Leave Management
- Employee Welfare
- Exit Formalities, etc.

Based on the current strengths of the HR people in the system, you can look at adding team members wherever it is required.

Usually, policies can cover salary disbursement, leaves, travel (local conveyance, accommodation, etc.), mobile, relocation, transfers, sexual harassment, employee benefits like insurance, etc. I am sure they are available on the internet/citehr.

Mr. Narendra, I am currently going through a similar exercise - helping an ITSM organization set up their HR department. This document comes in handy; it helped me break the ground in terms of where to begin. Thanks for the beautiful document.
