What is the point of HR in business?
Question asked by: mrquestion
Asked on: 31 Mar 2008
HR stands for human resources.
These are the people that are supposed to get involved with things like staff grievances, making sure that all the processes run smoothly, managing incentive schemes in the business and helping and managing the recruitment and interview process.
They are supposed to keep the human side of the business running smoothly and encourage the development of employees and so on.
Often HR staff get a bad press as not doing a proper job but just doing the fluffy stuff around the business like performance plans that are often not popular.
