Hi, Don't get scared. You need not start all the assignments at the same time. It's a process. Imagine setting up a new home. You first need to have basic data on employees, create relevant policies, and eventually prioritize and take baby steps to ensure that you do not burden yourself and the staff. Staff will have a lot of expectations. Start one-on-one interactions, group talks, and do some activities to communicate your role to all, as you may face some initial resistance. So, acceptability will be your number one goal. If they accept you as a facilitator, your assignments will be a smooth ride.

You see, I have been doing that for the last three companies, and it's getting challenging and exciting every time. I bet you have the best role to perform. All the best.

Dear if you want to start an HR department in your organization, then first of all, clarify your overall hierarchy and department setup. Based on this, you will be capable of establishing a hierarchy for your HR department. Therefore, your first step should be to clarify the organizational goals and then define your profile.

Parts of the HR department include:
- Recruitment
- Training & Development
- Statutory Compliances
- Administration
- Payroll (MIS, HRIS)
- Time office

These are the working areas of the HR department. Based on these areas, you can decide on the structure of your department.
