Hi, I am new in this field. I am a science graduate student. Luckily, I was given a chance to work as an assistant HR. I am interested and excited to learn new things. Currently, I will maintain the records, filing, attendance through biometric systems, and assist in payroll calculations, PF complaints like PF withdrawal, KYC uploading, etc.

I want to learn more about the HR department, systems, roles, and efficiency. I am looking for guidance on how to calculate basics like the ideal format for PF, PF challan, etc., step by step. Please guide me as a student.
