The Role of HR in an Organization

HR plays a key role in any organization. Basically, HR is the mediator between man and management. Basic work such as salary administration, training and development, recruitment, retention, health and safety, etc., are part of their responsibilities.

Mainly, HR is concerned with employee satisfaction. Therefore, in addition to these tasks, we should focus on various activities that inspire employees to be loyal and long-term assets for the firm. Employee engagement activities, motivational training, and performance appraisals are crucial job functions of the HR department.

Thanks,

The HR Management role does not start with the establishment of a firm or company. Within an established organization, it is mainly concerned with recruiting employees and providing them with a healthy and satisfactory environment to work in. This enables every individual to prove themselves as a valuable asset to the company, ultimately leading to increased productivity and profitability for the organization.

Kind regards,

Each company has different expectations from their HR department, which stem from the company culture. Some companies mix administration with HR, while in others, it's purely HR. In my opinion, the HR role is to make operational managers the best HR for their department. For this, the HR team has to organize the right training and workshops for better recruitment, career management, and appraisals. Through different interviews with their team members, they transfer the respective team's feedback to the manager so that he/she can progress in human management of their team. The operational manager is the first HR.

Talent Management

Framing organizational policies and organizational structure are crucial aspects of talent management. Grievance handling and addressing end-to-end employee needs are also essential components. These tasks are significant in ensuring a positive work environment and employee satisfaction.

These are some additional areas as per my perception.

A company's success and failure depend on the manpower of the company, by the selection of the right kind of employees at the right time, providing them training to enhance their skills, motivating them, and engaging them towards the objectives of the company to fulfill the goals of the company.

So, all these things come under HR. Now, HR's role is not only related to hiring employees but also to achieving the objectives of the organization to maximize profit. HR invests the company's money for the long-term profit of the company.
