HR In Manufacturing Industry.

Dear All,
I am joining a manufacturing company at a managerial position & I have to establish the HR dept as such in this organization. I am basically from Non-Manufacturing background and hence this industry would be an entirely new ball game for me. Though I am conversant with certain common aspects like Rect & selection, Com & Befit, Emp Relation etc., I want to learn more about the Organizational Structure, Learning and Development & PMS system prevailing in the manufacturing industries.
I request all you those who have knowledge about the above mentioned competencies, please share the same with me. Also if there are some specific books which speaks about HR in manufacturing domain, kindly provide the details of the same.
Thanks & Regards,
Madhu.

in manufacturing sector you have to deal with trade unions. good communication and negotiation skills are required.

Dear Madhusudhan,
Congtratulation first & foremost from my side.
If you are joining any plant then the major role of HR is of Compliance, Liasioning, Union handling (if any) & of learning & development. Your strength of employee relation will be of lot of use at plant.
