Do we, REALLY, need HR? • Performance Management • Redundancies, Business Strategy • Policies & Practices (Company Handbooks) • Discipline & Grievance • Recruitment • Retention • Training & Development • Business Strategy • Appraisals • Maternity, Paternity, Parental (Family Friendly) • Pay & Benefits
Roughly Translated? • “We’re so busy, I just don’t have the time to do it” • “If she’s late one more time, that’s it. She’s going” • “Maternity? What do I do now if she can take a whole year off ?” • “Parental Leave, is that the same as Paternity Leave ?” • “Its getting tough out there, I don’t want to loose anyone but there’s no money in the pot” • “I’ve told them a thousand times what I want them to be doing, they just don’t do it” • “That’s it, I’ve had enough of him. He’s just got to go”
