When most people think of universities, the first things that come to mind are usually the students and the professors. However, there is one important group of people that often goes overlooked: the Human Resources department. Human Resources plays a vital role in universities, and this article will discuss why that is so.
Fairness and Equity
One of the most important roles of Human Resources is to ensure that all employees are treated fairly and equally. This includes things like ensuring that everyone receives the same benefits and that no one is discriminated against. Human Resources also investigates any complaints that employees may have about their working conditions or treatment.
Hiring and Onboarding
Human Resources is also responsible for hiring new staff members. This includes finding qualified candidates, conducting interviews, and ultimately making the decision about who to hire. Human Resources departments also typically handle things like orientation and onboarding for new employees.
Managing Records
Another important role of Human Resources is to manage employee records. This includes keeping track of things like employee performance reviews, salaries, and vacation days. Human Resources is also often responsible for managing the employee pension and benefits plan.
HR in Universities is Vital
As you can see, Human Resources plays a vital role in universities. Without Human Resources, universities would not be able to function correctly.
