Steps to Becoming a Successful HR Professional
1) Study relevant laws on the subject - ESIC, PF, CLRA, etc. Knowledge of local laws on the subject is essential.
2) I presume you have some certification courses in management/HR, etc.
3) To face a Registered Workers Union (TU), you need to be well-informed on topics that are being discussed with the TU.
4) Tact, presence of mind, and a genuine approach to problem-solving are needed in negotiations with the TU.
5) Do not try to skip labor laws. The world is open, and someone will complain to the Labor Inspector, and you will have to face the music. Understand the nitty-gritty of laws relating to labor.
6) Be a friendly employee - knowledgeable about laws/practices of HR consistent with modern principles of management. Be aware of management practices of contemporary competitors in your industry.

Suggestions for Becoming a Perfect HR
First, you should be confident in the jobs you are doing. Here are my suggestions to be a perfect HR:
1) Update your knowledge on PF/ESI/CLRI and other latest amendments.
2) Be honest and fair in handling employees; there should not be any partiality.
3) Always analyze the resource requirements, take full control, and provide your assessed feedback to management.
4) A successful HR person should have full control over manpower costs and budgets.
5) Policy formulation and strict enforcement for implementation should be followed.
6) To deal with trade unions, you should be thorough in labor laws. Call them for a friendly discussion until you establish a good rapport and become an HR business partner at their work to sort out their day-to-day issues and build their trust.
7) Establish a good rapport with all related government officials; this is crucial to ensure the business runs smoothly.
8) Develop a good training plan that will consistently help line managers groom their team members. All line managers should be provided with good leadership programs to enhance their knowledge of current market trends.
9) Advise management on succession planning for critical and key positions in the organization. Personally, take care of this requirement to ensure it receives the utmost importance.
10) Labor laws are enforced to create an effective and safe environment for labor. As an HR professional, it should never be ignored. Instead, advise management on the importance and enforcement.
These are my suggestions.

Dear Satishrw, try to learn all statutory and compliance matters as advised by our senior friend Nath Rao. Handling unions comes with experience.
The role of HR in liaising and employee relations
HR liaising with statutory officials and internal authorities plays an important role. Employee relations, engagement, and reviews also form a part of good HR practices.
Criteria for a successful HR professional
The criteria for a successful HR professional should include being a patient listener and a good communicator. They should always be a bridge between workers and management.
While it's essential to learn and improve as an HR professional, your query regarding skipping labor laws is unwarranted. Understand that labor laws are enacted for the benefit of the weaker sections, which are employees/workers.
Thank you.
