A company is an entity that utilizes it’s assets or resources to function. Everything takes time and money. You will hear business jargon, for “We can’t afford it” is now typically stated in terms like: “We just don’t have the resources”.
The other finite resources can be raw materials, space/facility or most of the time: the necessary manpower or talent available, or Human Resources.
HR will continue to be critical in especially the US economy as there is a growing shortage of qualified people to meet the demand for highly skilled positions.
The Human Resource function is generally responsible for making sure the company’s most valuable asset is effectively recruited and retained.
In simple terms, the Human Resources function of a company is responsible for the employees- attracting new employees to fill the needs of the company, paying them appropriately and ensuring proper treatment so they don’t leave the company, training them to ensure they have the skills needed by the company, and ensuring the organization structure is appropriate to achieve the goals of the company. People going into Human Resources either become specialized in one of these specific areas- Recruiting, Compensation and Benefits, Employee Relations or Training, or they become generalists with responsibility for all of these functions. The best candidates for Human Resources generally have specialized training in Human Resources combined with training in business to best support the organization.
