- Visibility is essential. Go around the office and talk to the employees, this is a great way to keep on the pulse of the culture of the organisation. How are they? What are they working on? How is it going? Not only does this get you away from the desk but it shows that HR cares and you can report back on general feel of the office to the management team. If there are any causes for concern then the managers can address this in their own team meetings.
- Attend management meetings with structured schedule of HR items such as latest statistics, employment law updates, employee issues and upcoming procedures.
- Go along to team meetings armed with relevant statistics, tell them what you are working on and how they can help, inform them on upcoming events or give a presentation on a specific topic.
- If you have offices in different parts of the country go there once a month for a day or two so that employees can meet with you and discuss any issues.
- Provide key decision makers with relevant statistics about the organisation and then talk through possible solutions on issues such as high absenteeism.
- How can you impact on the bottom line? Look at saving money in recruitment - instead of using agencies, advertise on-line. Conduct in-house training rather than use external providers.
