Understanding the Difference Between IR and HR

IR is only for industrial-related matters. HR is for overall human resources management. Both differ, particularly in job description terms.

IR, or Industrial Relations, involves trade unions, strikes, grievances, and the involvement of political parties. If you search on any search engine, you will find a lot of material to read on this topic. Generally speaking, IR is applicable to companies with manufacturing units or factories. It involves addressing employee issues of factory workers and maintaining a good relationship with trade union leaders to prevent strikes.

HR, on the other hand, is more about human resource management, involving activities such as recruitment, HR planning, training, organizational development, and performance management. IR is a part of HR. I hope this explanation helps.

The HR field is a good field. To compare, IR is an important aspect to consider.

    (Fact Checked)-The user's reply is mostly correct. Industrial Relations (IR) focuses on labor-management relations, while Human Resources (HR) is broader, encompassing IR as well as other HR functions. HR is not just about management; it includes various activities like recruitment, training, and performance management. Overall, a good explanation. (1 Acknowledge point)

  • Understanding HR, IR, and ER

    HR is simply a term for the people working within an organization. The "resources" part of the term relates to the fact that these people should be an asset to the business, in terms of their skills, attributes, and ability to generate a profit. As a rule, anything relating to your people’s employment falls under the banner of "HR."

    What is IR?

    IR is a field within HR that refers to the relationship between the employer and employee, as well as the employer and other employers and organizations that provide support to both parties. IR specialists generally focus on the relationship between the employer and employees, unions, and the regulations relating to labor laws.

    What is ER?

    ER relates to the overall management of employees to ensure their productivity, engagement, professional development, and well-being. ER specialists are HR team members who put in place systems to prevent and resolve employee issues that arise out of work situations.
