Dear Seniors & Colleagues,
More then 3 yrs back I joined my present organization as AM-HR & Admin. I was handling total 3 companies initially & 2 persons were reporting to me. Total workforce was around 65+. My reporting manager left after 1 month & my employer didn't hire another manager. Hence, I had to start the HR & Admin Department right from the scratch.But after 3/4 months we were asked to provide HR & Admin support to 8 other companies. Those companies belongs to the close relatives of our Directors(Their line of business is more or less same) & together they were sharing the cost of HR & Admin department (according to our information). Their Reg Off &/or Corp Off are different & we are just providing them day to day HR & Admin support.Now we are taking care of a workforce of around 200+employees.
But, I am not sure whether we should mention it during interview? We don't practice anything illegal at any of the premises. But being a HR I am really confused whatever we are doing is that legal or not? That's why we are not allowed to say anything about that practice to outsider, so we don't disclose that during interview.
Despite our hard work we are not getting the kind of exposure in a bigger organization what we really deserve. Although we are handling a 200+ workforce on day to day basis but still at the time of interview we are bound to say-"our workforce is around 65+".
Now I have all the following questions:-
1. Is that legal or not?
2. If it's legal then can we mention that during our interview session?
3. Should we speak the truth to the interviewer?
I am asking the help on the behalf of my team & seeking prompt advice.
Regards,
