Human resource management, in my opinion, is one process that makes
sure that the passion and zeal of the employees stays put throughout
their tenure in the organization. It may seem very easy to keep the
motivation and performance up at all times, as well as make sure that
the cost per employee is maintained at the lowest. Well, it so is not!
Not one bit. Hence, many organizations, as per current trends, outsource
certain HR processes just to make sure that a certain degree of
decentralization of work is maintained.
There are four basic aspects of human resource management outsourcing.
Recruitment
This
is the most popularly outsourced process of HRM. The firms recruit
individuals on the basis of the nature, requirement and culture of the
organization. They conduct the resume checks and the basic eliminations.
Most organizations prefer that the final recruitment interviews are
taken by, or in the presence of, the in-house HR or the CEO.
Nonetheless,
the footwork, strategies, questionnaire development and the general
feel of the interview rounds are all taken care of by the firm itself.
This procedure has to be done flawlessly to make sure that the right
employees are recruited, and the right impression is given out about the
organization as well. After all, the first impression is the last one!
Compensation Packages
Considering
that the firm takes care of the recruitment for the organization, they
also work out the compensation packages. One has to admit, money is the
most obvious and basic motivation for any employee, whether they admit
it or not. So the package has to be crafted well! Ordinarily, the
organization provides the firm with the general per employee budget.
In
accordance to that budget, the firms works out the basic salary,
incentives, health benefits, conveyance allowances, dearness allowance
and probation policies. It is not a very simple task considering that
there are several central and state policies to adhere by whilst each of
these are decided.
Motivation and Morale Strategies
During
the employees tenure, there are many times when there is a requirement
to egg them on a little bit, to push their performance toward the
better. As such, every organization, big or small, follows strategies
that govern the general motivation and morale boosting activities.
These
activities cannot be conducted in any organization by outside entities.
As such the strategies are sculpted by the firm and the implementation
is done by the in house HR executives. In case, it is a very exuberant
event, like a conference, then the firm joins hands with the in house
executives and manager for the implementation as well. But, this differs
from deal to deal.
Exit Interviews
During the tenure of the
employee, a record of their performance and behavior is maintained. This
record, under most circumstances, is also kept with the firm. During
the end of tenure for any reason, like retirement, resignation or
termination, these details are referred to.
The firm conducts the
exit interview, which, is mandatory for any corporate. This is the last
phase in the cycle of the association between the firm and the
organization regarding that employee.
These 4 absolutely
simple-seeming steps are the basic and vital constituents of any
employee's life in the organization. So it is absolutely clear, HR,
whether in-house or outsourced is essential and significant for smooth
running of any organization.
