Top 10 hr friendly company in 2022 with details
Regardless of skills, the value of HR in business isn’t always immediately apparent. With just a few employees, business leaders feel like they have their finger on the pulse when it comes to the people they hire and manage. But as a business grows, leaders often find there just isn’t time to deal with day-to-day people management and recruitment and the focus on people can easily get lost. This is a costly mistake and can affect employee satisfaction, culture and long-term success.
Consider the consequences of poor HR. When employees don’t feel supported, aren’t being given opportunities, work long hours, and so on, their motivation to perform is impacted. Under deliver on effective HR and you’ll see a knock-on effect on your bottom line. People, culture and business success go hand-in-hand. Reputation as an employer is influential in attracting talent. It also impacts on customers.
