The Human Aspect of HR
HR is often perceived negatively, with people viewing it as a disciplinary authority rather than a supportive entity. It is essential for HR to prioritize the human aspect of their roles and approach employees with compassion. By treating employees well during difficult times, organizations can create a positive experience even in situations like layoffs. This approach fosters a culture where employees feel valued and understood, countering the negative stigma associated with HR.
