Human Resources Careers
March 8, 2008
The Human Resources (HR) department serves as a link between management and employees. Providing specialized services to staff members, the department’s goal is to foster positive relationships, to increase job satisfaction, and to make sure all customer or client needs are met. Specific responsibilities include: administration, recruitment, company compensation and benefits, training and development, health and safety, and employee relations. The Human Resources Director must be knowledgeable of company goals, relevant federal and state laws and union contracts, and needs to be able to recognize and evaluate industry trends. In smaller companies, Directors may be considered Human Resources Generalists who perform all the specialized personnel duties themselves. In larger companies, the Human Resources Directors oversee multiple departments that are equipped with a manager and staff specialists or representatives who head one particular activity.
