Hi, I really need help from HR employees. I'm an HR employee, but the problem is I'm alone in my department without any experience. I do not know what to do. Could anybody help guide me on how to start my work?
Thank you.

Dear Special, How many employees are there in your organization? Could you please review the HR policies for follow-up? Can you confirm if your company is filing EPF, ESI, and PT returns or not? This information will help me provide appropriate guidance.

First, understand the organization structure (job and responsibility of each employee/department) of your organization, company profile, HR policies, payroll structure, statutory compliances, etc. Then start working on it.

Hi Special Girl, I can imagine how you are! First of all, keep motivating yourself. One thing we have to notice is that no one will guide us in the corporate sector. We have to take the initiative. You mentioned you are the only person in your HR Department.
As our friends said, first, go through the organization structure, HR policies, and functions, and know to whom you are reporting. Go through the Revision History that your previous employee had done so that you can understand. Take an empty template of any document and compare it with the existing document of the same so that you can learn how to update or how to start.
For what I am saying all this is... I came across the same situation, and I am the only person in the HR department. All the best, and I wish you success in your future.
For any queries and clarifications, feel free to ping me at [Email Removed For Privacy Reasons].

I am facing the same problem in this organization. I am the only HR and the first HR in this organization. Please help. There are no policies established here. The most significant issue is that it is a HUF (Family Business), leading to the absence of specific HR rules being followed. Consequently, I find myself with little work to do, often needing to sit idle. Please advise on how I can effectively utilize my time.

Thank you very much for your reply; it's really beneficial for me. However, we don't have any HR policies in written documents. What should I do? Also, for the payroll, the accounts department handles the employees' salaries.

To start with, understand the company's dealings. Go through the company link properly and learn about the organization.
Make a Policy Manual
Make a policy manual containing the whole structure of the company. For policy-making, talk to your management and approve each clause, such as Position Category, Office Time, Salary Accounts, Lunch Break, Tea Break, National Holidays, Leave Policy, Termination Policy, Office Infrastructure Policy, Medical, and other things you would like to add.
It is not easy to document it in a week's time. For all the above functions, you need to sit with your management and decide.
Also, with recruitment, you can start. If you are in a small organization, please gather all the requirements as per the recruitment needs and do the needful.
If you need any assistance, do let us know. It's a very challenging experience to create the company structure, so work hard on it. I am sure you will enjoy doing it.
