Dear Sukhpal,
HR stands for Human Relations, which describes the relationship among individuals. Emotional relation pertains to one's feelings and emotions, while IR, or Industrial Relations, deals with the relationships between employees in the industry. All these aspects are interconnected and can impact one another.

Dear, Industrial relations, in Belgium, means the relations between employer and unions. It’s a part of HR but in little companies, the CEO prefer to handle that kind of issues. Regards

Hi,
In the field of human resources, the above-mentioned fields are interrelated with employees to achieve the organization's goals. HR concentrates more on the development aspect of employees to achieve goals in a modern trend. IR, or industrial relations, is mainly related to the discipline of the organizational culture. ER, or employee relations, focuses on the development of employees and resolving social dispute issues in a smooth way.

Hi,
IR - Industrial Relations refer to any disputes or issues between employees and employees, workmen and workmen, workmen and management, and employees and management.
ER - Employee Relations encompass IR and all welfare activities related to employees/workers, such as schemes, settlements, post-retirement benefits, etc.
HR - HR includes ER and IR in addition to all activities related to attracting, recruiting, retaining, and developing human resources.
Hope this helps.

Dear friend,
HR means Human Resources, in which all the manpower of the organization has to be maintained and developed in a proper manner.
IR means Industrial Relations, where harmony among all employees, workers, and employers in any industry is essential.
ER means Employee Relations, which signifies the harmonious relationship between employers and employees in an organization.
HR encompasses both IR and ER. HR and ER are found in companies, while IR and HR are prevalent in the industrial sector.
Hope this helps you.

Good question, Sukhpal. There is certainly a difference between HR, IR, and ER, as opposed to those who have tried to equate all three.
HR denotes Human Resources (NOT relations as a few members have stated vainly). HR is a very broad term that includes personnel sourcing and hiring, applicant tracking, skills development and tracking, benefits administration, and compliance with associated government regulations. HR responsibilities include payroll, benefits, hiring, firing, and keeping up to date with state and Central/federal tax laws. In other words, HR deals with all matters pertaining to Personnel Management, including responsibilities of payroll, benefits, hiring, firing, and keeping up to date with state and Central/federal tax laws. ER and IR are specialized components of HR that deal with employees/labor.
IR stands for "Industrial Relations," a multidisciplinary field that mainly deals with the relationship concerning employment. Industrial relations are increasingly being referred to as employment relations for non-industrial employment relationships.
Employee Relations is, in fact, a PART of Industrial Relations that focuses on maintaining employer-employee relationships contributing to satisfactory productivity, motivation, and morale. Essentially, Employee Relations is concerned with preventing and resolving problems involving individual employees arising from or affecting work situations.

Hi, Sukhpal
HR (Human Resources): HR means the workforce of an organization. It includes implementing management strategies, policies, labor mobility, recruitment/resourcing/separation, training & development, appraisal, employee welfare/benefits, payroll, competency mapping, etc.
ER (Employee Relations): It is at a macro level. Nowadays, it is a very sensitive and important management aspect. It involves maintaining good employee and employer relationships to contribute to good productivity, morale, motivation, employee development, employee engagement, grievance investigation, meeting statutory and non-statutory compliance for employees, legal compliance, and avoiding disputes/conflicts. We can say ER means maintaining a healthy atmosphere and taking care of the flow of work between the organization and workers.
IR (Industrial Relations): It is at a macro level. IR means the relationship between the employer and employees. It includes Disputes Act, Trade Union Act, all labor laws, LTS/collective bargaining/negotiation/RLC, disciplinary actions/shop floor discipline actions, domestic enquiry, conciliation, RLC, labor court cases, legal compliance, etc.

Dear Learned Friends,
I read a book on "Human Sigma." The book mentioned that during the development of the "SIGMA" concept, the element of "Human" was not considered because, sentimentally, each human being differs from others. I feel this is important in handling HR, as production is surely linked with the sentimental support provided to individuals involved in all sorts of production processes.
It is obvious that the human factor should not be considered as resources but as an asset that includes the brain, heart, and lifeblood of any production process. Rough handling of this asset (or whatever my learned friends here may call it) may lead to undesired results in which neither the promoters nor other stakeholders would be very interested.
Therefore, I would prefer to expand HR as Human Relations to assign the right gravity to it.

Dear Saumitra Sengupta,
No doubt, the productivity of any organization depends on human relations. However, in the absence of "human resources," there cannot be the element of "human relations." Therefore, relations are a secondary issue in human resources, where the existence of human resources cannot be disregarded. According to various research studies, human resources can be considered as human capital. It is essential to assign the right importance to provide emotional support to the employees.
