Writing HR Policies, Procedures and Conducting Staff Performance Appraisal

Introduction

The war for top talent continues to intensify. While the number of college-educated employees is increasing across the world does not equal a surplus of talent. Also today’s employee who is under pressure never before experienced. Technology has made it not only possible but in many industries a requirement that employees work far longer hours than in the past. People are taking more work home with them.

Objectives

    The idea of retirement is being drastically redefined. Fewer employees feel a sense of loyalty and commitment to a given company, as they feel that loyalty is rarely reciprocated. Customers are becoming increasingly demanding of their suppliers. Shareholders and boards of directors are becoming increasingly demanding of management. Nearly every organization is struggling to deal with the increasing rate of change in our complex global industries and companies. Unfortunately, too few HR professionals have developed the business skills, combined with more sophisticated human resources domain skills, to add the needed value to these complex business issues.
