The economic crisis raises the importance of HR Reporting as the top management needs the immediate information about the development of the organization. The HRM Function has to develop a quick status reports about the organization as the top management can quickly decide about the new initiatives to save costs.
Job Design vs. Job Analysis
Recently I got the question about the difference between the job design and the job analysis. Many people take the job design and the job analysis as two different names for one activity. Honestly, there is a difference between job design and job analysis.
Transparent Compensation Strategy
The managers believe the compensation strategy should be fully open to employees and managers. It sounds great till the moment, the Compensation and Benefits Manager opens the policy to the public audience in the organization. The rumors and endless discussions start and the employees ask for the salary review.
HR Organizational Structure for New Challenges
The HR Organizational Structure has to fit to new challenges born in the external environment. All the important and influencing people speak about the changes in the business world, as the current recession seems to be one of the worst recessions ever. The way the business was done will be discontinued and new business ethics and new business rules will be born.
Job Offers and Recession
The unemployment rate grows rapidly during the current recession. The people are worried about their jobs and they are worried about the stability of their employer. The moves on the job market can look to stop, but this is not true. Even in the recession, the number of job offers stays almost constant. It is not that hard to receive a new job offer.
Simple HR Policies and Procedures
The HRM Function should be simple as the employees and managers have a chance to understand the basics of Human Resources quickly. When you read your HR Policies and HR Procedures you can a completely different picture. The HR Policies are not simple; they are very complicated as they try to solve every potential issue during the daily business life.
Turn Recession into Opportunity
The recession makes the organizations to struggle. But on the other hand, the recession is an opportunity to introduce dramatic changes and innovations into our daily business life.
