HR – MYTH VS REALITY

HR MYTH VS REALITY

• FAST COLLAB

2
Description

• For many of us who work in and are passionate
  about HR, it could be frustrating to constantly
  defend the importance of what we do. Some people
  believe that the role of HR is nothing more than
  to ensure payrolls submission and maintain
  important employee details.

Myth Anyone can be an HR

• HR job is not an easy job and requires a lot of
  in-depth training. HR activities are based on
  research and theory. HR professionals are
  required to master both practice and theory
  before they can devise strategic policies for a
  company.

4
Myth HR is full of fads

• HR practices have evolved after rigorous research
  and experimentation, over a time. Every HR
  professional handles his/her current work as part
  of a evolutionary chain.

5
Myth HR can make my performance review good

• Many employees still believe that the HR can help
  them in enhancing their performance reviews, but
  the reality is far different. The HR is in no
  position to change the ratings given by your
  manager in accordance with your performance.

6
Myth HRs hardly have any work

• Arguably, if we may say so, HRs have the most
  demanding work in a company. Dealing with people,
  day in and day out, across backgrounds, skills,
  aspirations etc. is no easy task. HR handles a
  variety of duties requiring careful attention and
  dedication.

7
Myth HR can increase my salary

• This is one of the most popular misbeliefs held
  by many among employees and job seekers. Most
  internal employees and even candidates believe
  that the salaries are decided by the HR. Though
  it is true that compensation ranges are fixed by
  the HR depending on the type of roles, the actual
  pay received by employees is dependent on
  performance ratings.

8
Myth It is not possible to join HR from any
other function

• It may be feasible for employees from other
  functions to join Human Resources in some areas
  of the profession. Junior roles in HR, such as
  recruiter, can be filled with people from
  Customer Services and Admin Support as the roles
  share a few common features. At the senior level,
  joiners are likely to come from consultancy or
  operations roles.

9
Myth HR function can be replaced by automation
software

• There are different software for different
  functions of HR HR Applicant Tracking System for
  recruitment function, DocRead for core policy
  generation, SimpleX for payroll management,
  Cornerstone for employee performance management
  etc.
• Without denying the fact that these software are
  immensely helpful in reducing the burden of HR,
  it should also be noted that they cannot replace
  the HR. The key differentiators for organizations
  now are the ability to hire good staff and retain
  them, neither of which are possible without human
  judgement.
