HRM PRACTICES
Over the year Human resource management (HRM)
has been researched upon and developed into an
intricately detailed science. Organizations have
realized the importance of managing and directing
their culture to ensure the highest level of
productivity is received from it.
Simply relying on employee recruitment and
retention was not enough rather more effort needed
to be invested in cultivating a relationship between
the employee and employer.
Overtime organizations who have invested in HRM
have been able to provide better services to their
consumers and have in turn enjoyed profits for it
too.
When it comes to the best practices in human
resource management or HRM, there have been
countless research which has claimed that their
utilization will optimize all of the organization’s
processes.

The following are some of the practices which may help


an organization attain its fullest potential:
1. Top Level Involvement:
The organization which include HR in their strategic
planning are able to use the expertise and insight
provided by them to deliver. They also include the top
leaders into their HR planning which means that all their
strategic plans are in sync with each other providing
cohesiveness.
2. Forget your Own:
So you’ve organized a full proof program for the
employees’ training to enhance their skills. However,
when was the last time you organized a similar activity
for the HR department itself? This is a clear case of
forgetting your own on the battlefield while providing
aid for the others. HR technology is an ever-changing
phenomenon which needs to be reviewed periodically to
ensure is up to the mark. This will be only possible if
training for the HR itself is provided so that they can
ensure the rest of the organization receives the best HR
guidance too.
3. The Use of Forecasting:
The firms who mean business are in the habit of using
forecasting in the analysis of their workforce to enable
quick decisions to be made. This also ensures that they
can lead a proactive approach and identify any shifts in
the talent market.
4. Employee Culture:
One of the best practices is to ensure that the employees
work in a carefully curated environment which suits their
needs. These organizations have grown past the need to
simply save costs and derive profits rather they
understand the need for a work environment which
fosters employee and employer relations.
5. Understand the Difference between HR and
Administration:
Many organizations are guilty of this crime as they
allocate all the administrative responsibilities to the HR
and expect them to perform their responsibilities too.
There needs to be a clear differentiation between the two
sets of responsibilities and ensure that the HR
responsibilities are not seen as an afterthought.
6. Learn to Adapt:
Firms that are considered successful all have one thing in
common and they are the reason why they survived all
the changing market trends. They have not formed their
HR practices along a certain thought process, unable to
change it any further. The more flexible and adaptive the
firms are the more likely they are to survive.
7. E-recruitment:
Embracing technology has always benefited firms and
there have been only rare cases where they felt any
adverse effect from the use of technology. The use of the
web, and recruitment in conjunction has allowed firms to
have an accurate recruitment and selection process to the
needs of the company itself.
8. Measure the strategies:
Firms that don’t blindly implement strategies without
measuring their success are the most likely to be
successful, thus it’s no surprise that most successful
firms make sure to measure any strategy they apply. The
impact factor of each applied strategy is carefully
measured and recorded to ensure tracking of its success
or failure.
9. Communicate:
The word communication seems to worm its way around
every possible practice and thus it deserves a separate
mention. Encouragement of communication is intensely
important as they make sure that ideas flow between all
the departments. HRM ensures that the employees are
doing say by training them, recruiting good
communicators, and acting as mediators when conflict
arises.
10. Actively Working on Employee Retention :
There is constant and deliberate effort to retain the
already carefully selected employees that will ensure
productivity in the long run. HR sets a goal to keep the
employees happy and productive top allows for the firm
to thrive. They understand the costs behind conducting a
recruitment drive and thus make sure that employees are
only leaving when there is no other way.
11. Select a Few:
Firms that wish to utilize their resources well are known
to curate the select few and enhance their capabilities
specifically. HRM which undertakes the whole firm in
their strategy is set for failure as no firm can provide
them with unlimited resources. Line managers are often
given preference as they would be then able to aid their
direct subordinates and ensure their productivity.
12. Understand the Legalities:
HRM isn’t simply about keeping the employees the
happy as that would only be possible in utopia, therefore,
HRM practices include understanding what the law
entails and how to ensure that legal issues do not arise or
at least do not harm the firm’s reputation.
13. Ensure Equality:
The base of all function is to ensure that no employee is
being denied access to opportunities because of their
gender, age, race, ethnicity or more. This can be ensured
by HR during recruitment and as well as throughout the
company on a daily basis.
14. Celebrity Employers:
The best companies such as Google, YouTube,
Microsoft and more are all celebrity employers as
potential employees want to work with them. They
attract the best talent and are therefore able to have, a
talent which promises a return on investment. HRM has
a function to develop such a reputation for their firm and
thereby attract talent.
15. The use of outsourcing:
When an expert needs to be called in then they do so
without any hesitation. Therefore, outsourcing of HR
practices is seen as the best move to do when there is a
lack of expertise within the company.
