How to develop a HR Strategy to support Business Growth | Organisational Performance | Culture | HR
The benefits of having a HR strategy is about the conscious awareness that your people are critical to your success, that you evaluate and involve others within your organisation to create a vision of what your organisation will look like from a people perspective, that you align your HR Strategy to your organisational goals, create a plan to make all that vision a reality."
Strategic HR involves a blend of initiatives including:
🎯 Recruitment Strategy
🎯 Terms and Conditions
🎯 Engagement Strategy
🎯 Culture
🎯 Communication strategy
🎯 Reward & Recognition Strategy
🎯 Talent Management/Succession Planning
🎯 Learning & Development Strategy
🎯 Employee Well-Being Strategy
🎯 Corporate & Social Responsibility Strategy
Whilst there can be some quick wins, a HR strategy is a longer term process. HR strategy plans do not need to be prescriptive and can be flexed to accommodate other business priorities. The fact that there is a commitment to achieving the goals is what counts.
Organisational behaviours need to be aligned to the strategy. Culture comes from within: It is the way we do things round here! The role of a HR Consultant is to help facilitate change, to support, advise and keep the organisation on track.

    I had a 3 weeks off in 2015 due to eye operation. I got a verbal warning because I had a week off with a bad back in the same year. Before that I had no time off in 5 years. After that I did 7 years without time off.

      Hi Damian, thanks for your comment. I suspect that your second absence met a trigger point in the Company's Absence Policy which would have resulted in a disciplinary hearing. Discretion can and should be used when the employee presents mitigating circumstances such as you did when highlighting your excellent attendance history. What you have described is what is defined as "mechanically managing the Absence Policy" and certainly not an approach I would recommend! Louise

      @@opalpeoplesolutions Yes its called the Bradford system. The boss did say if I appealed I would of won and was on my side but I just let it go as i knew I would not have any time off. Now it`s all changed. Still have the system but we are they that desperate for staff that people have loads of points but never get sacked. It`s a very old steel forge and most of the managers have worked there since school and don`t know what it`s like in the real world now. :)
