Your Top 5 New HR Habits For 2015
By Robyn Porter, Human Resources Manager & Consultant, HTG Peer Groups
Happy 2015! The start of a new year brings so much hope, promise and excitement for us all, both personally and professionally. And while many business owners and managers have spent the last few weeks focused on strategically planning execution of their 2015 business plans, I would suggest few have given much thought to their HR strategic plans. So here’s my shortlist of HR “habits” every leader and company, big to small, needs to incorporate into their 2015 plan (and every year thereafter):
- Create A Useable, Compliant Job Description Template. This sounds more daunting than it really is. Just find one you like, stick to it, and use it across all your departments and positions. Everything (and I mean everything) in the world of HR starts with a good job description. If you have a really good one, it can clarify expectations of your team members and managers with regard to their performance. It gives your new employees guidance as to what is expected of them. And it goes a long way to winning any kind of unemployment, wrongful termination, or job classification audits or lawsuit. Then use this document! It’s a living document, to be referenced and tweaked. And be sure to get your employees’ input into the document as well.
