Respected Seniors and my dear fellow members
I am relatively new to the world of Human resource management as compared to the other members of the community . I work for a medium sized IT company .I am the only HR out here and I spend at least 10hours a day at office handling the different HR functions for 2 of our branch offices .At times I feel that an HR person cannot mingle with the employees and needs to maintain a certain amount of distance from them so that he/she can enforce discipline within the organisation or in other words he /she has to do this as per the instruction from the higher management .On the other hand he /she cant be on the same level with the owners of the company .At the end of the day it is like he/she is spending 10hrs in the office like "one mysterious person " about whom nobody knows a word .
I would like to put forward this question to my seniors and fellow members that is this situation inevitable and if not then what can be a way out
Thanks and Regards
