This article will outline the top human resource issues of 2022 that HR
leaders are likely to encounter.
Improving Diversity, Equity And Inclusion (DEI)
Organizations across the globe in every industry are striving to become more aware of DEI-related issues to create an inclusionary working environment. Almost 95% of the organizations took up DEI initiative according to McLean& Company’s 2021 HR Trends Report. A study by McKinsey known as Delivering through Diversity founded that companies with Diverse Leadership were more profitable and had greater market value than those without it. The organisations are now facing internal and external pressures to become more diverse, so improving DEI is considered one of the top human resources issues of 2022.
Paving The Way For Remote Work
During the height of the pandemic, organizations across the globe
transitioned to hybrid and remote work. Even though many organizations are considering a return to the office in some form in the future, this new trend is here to stay. The majority (92%) of companies polled by Gartner expect some employees to continue working remotely.
In light of this trend, HR departments must set up for remote work.
Employees and company leaders want to continue capitalizing on the advantages of this employment format, which will require HR leaders to change the way they manage human capital to maintain productivity and an optimal level of interpersonal communication.
