Dear Seniors,
Can you please suggest to me how to approach the HR manager (company management staff) to start employee engagement activities in a mid-sized BPO company where I am working (approximately 100 employees)? Currently, there are no employee engagement activities taking place in this company, and it seems that the Company HR manager is not showing any interest in employee relations or interactions. Could you please suggest some actions that can be taken against the HR manager? Additionally, I would appreciate suggestions for employee engagement activities so that I can propose them to the Company HR manager and other management staff.
Hoping for a positive reply...

Kindly pen down the suggestions that you have for the improvement of employee relations/interactions.
Have a word with your HR Manager and tell him in a proper way that if we can follow those practices in the company. Make him understand the advantages.
If approaching your HR Manager is a problem, then you can shoot him an email and take time from him as per his convenience so that you can discuss personally.

Dear Hemant,
With your company size, managing employee engagement would not be so hard. If you have not received any positive feedback from your HR Manager, it could be possible that the program might not be his priority right now. You can always start the program in your department. If the result is positive, I'm sure the management will take notice. The program needs a champion; you can be the champion, not necessarily the HR Manager.
Hope this helps.

Dear Hemant,
Your employee strength is only 100, so it's a good opportunity to connect with the people more and enhance Employee Engagement. First, talk with them, know their interests, and ask for their suggestions on activities they would like to be part of if conducted in the organization.
If their suggestions, like Chess, Antakshri, Table Tennis, Singing competitions, or quizzes, are feasible for you to organize, consult with your Manager. Inform him that the majority of your team wishes to have these events. Ensure cost-effectiveness and adhere to the time guidelines to convince your Manager. Highlight the positive outcomes of organizing such activities, as they not only boost morale and employee development but also nurture the organizational culture. As an HR professional, approach him with your best skills!

Hello Hemant,
As our friend suggested rightly, you really do not have to depend on HR to start any employee engagement programs for your team. During the roster, you can pick up any specific time which does not affect the SLAs for the process and initiate a small activity. The activity could be playing some indoor games, conducting quiz contests, etc. I am sure your initiative would get the attention from other process leads/managers who would then pressurize HR to make this an ongoing activity.

Dear Hemant,
It is not the sole responsibility of HR to create engaged employees. In actual fact, everyone in the organization - from the boss, HODs, managers, supervisors to the staff - have to play an active role in employee engagement. If it is not possible to achieve company-wide engagement initiatives, then start with divisional-wide or your own department first. As engagement begins with communication, you may kick-start within your own department in this area, followed by a review of work processes, building a cohesive team, etc.
I am very sure that once your department experiences good results, the rest of the departments will follow suit. From there, management and HR should be able to take it from there and administer it as a company-wide initiative.
