What is Human Resource?
- Human Resource is a department that recruits job applicants, trains and manages an organization’s workforce, and ensures the productivity of the employees in terms of performing business operations. It is a critical component of any organization as it maintains a joyful, legal, and productive staff, which results to a healthy work environment (Kenton, 2022).
Employees who belong in the Human Resource department are in-charge of the following business processes (Indeed Tutorial Team, 2022):
- Recruiting
- Hiring
