Step by Step guide to set up HR Department in an organization


Step by Step guide to set up HR Department in an organization



This blog is an endeavor to help HR professional, who have just started their career or moved to managerial profile recently and given responsibility of setting up HR department in an organization, which don’t have HR system in place. We will discuss each and every function of HR one by one so that you get the clarity on why a particular function is important and how to implement in your organization.




Broadly HR department can be seen as below mentioned segments and we will discuss each segment more in detail one by one:
  • ·         HR Operations, formally known as Personnel Department
  • ·         HRD (Human Resource Development)
  • ·         Automation/ MIS
  • ·         Business Partner


HR OPERATIONS

As you can see that I have already compared HR Operation segment with function of Personnel Department. HR Department early used to known as Personnel Department. Function of this department was primarily of support, which liaison with government department for statutory compliance, manage attendance and leave, take disciplinary actions, facilitate recruitment, training and more like a clerical job. I am referring it as HR Operation. It is basically a segment where you as HR Professional need to take care of hygiene factors of HR. If HR Operations are not in place then you can not move ahead to HRD. As my earlier boss said it correctly, “It is bread and butter for HR Department”. Hence we need to ensure that these hygiene factors are in place.

These Hygiene factors are as below:



HRD (Human Resource Development)

It is the part of Human Resource department which focuses on ensuring that the biggest asset of an organization which is Human is aligned to business. It addresses human related aspect like performance management, training etc.

Here are some of the areas which we will discuss going forward:
  • ·         Performance Management System
  • ·         Training Need Identification
  • ·         Training
  • ·         Employee Engagement

AUTOMATION / MIS

In today fast growing market, every function of organization is on fast track hence HR as function should also be armed with technology hence knowledge and power of automation should be known to you as HR professional. At the same time MIS (Management Information System) also helps you to take informed decision basis data points you gather through various reports.

BUSINESS PARTNER

You as HR professional need to learn, how to be a business partner than a support function. What does a CEO expect from you? How you can contribute to growth of organization? Etc
You need to learn those deliverable which make you integral part of organization and its success story.

We will now take each topic one by one and see how we as HR should implement to setup our HR department which serves its purpose in organization.

Hello Negi Ji,

I ve started my career 3 yrs back in HR. As I am in a construction company MNC, you can easyly imagine how much knowledge I ve gained in these 3 yrs. I am not able to learn new things here, as my boss himself hold all the things & not giving any chance to do at my own. In his opinion as I am new there are more chance of doing mistakes. I ve some knowledge but i do not have any confident abt my work because of less work experience. But I want to do some work to gain my knowledge, which is not seems possible here. I need your suggestion how can i gain some knowledge and switch my career to some other company. Waiting for ur valuable reply.............

Govind Singh Negi said...

Dear Friend,

First suggestion for your manager is that "Knowledge increase by sharing", a manager is consider good if he has ability to create future managers.

Now coming to you query regarding how do you learn. For learning new things in HR, you should keep visiting website which has HR discussion forum, share your thoughts and get opinion of other HR professional. This way you will come to know whether your thought process is correct or not. Also read some good books on HR including statutory compliance. Hope my blog will also help you in future to learn new things.

Thankyou so very much for the effort put in by you.

Could you please also give your valuable inputs on
ESI,Gratuity,Bonus etc which you have left out?
And maybe later on the rest of the hygiene factors?
It will be really useful to me Sir.

Sarita Pareek said...

Dear Sir,
Whenever a HR makes a policy whether its office timing, leave policy etc. employees become unhappy with the HR. They don't show their anger openly but their behavior shows that. Many times HR try to explain them bt they don't understand. What will you suggest how the HR should deal with this?

Sarita Pareek said...

Please reply.

Govind Singh Negi said...

Dear Sarita,

Policies should be in line with local labour laws. Example, if as per state leave act, you need to give 20 leaves in a year then you can not make policy for lesser. Employee do understand else you can refer law. Majority of employees do understand and agree with a fair policy, if some do not then they should be informed about it and logic should be given behind it.
