Quoted from forza ivano
when did H.R. ever win you 3 points?
Presumably the appointee will be implementing a strengthened anti-bullying policy?

can't wait for Filipe, pen and Herve to weigh in


I agree , HR departments are the blood suckers if any company just leeching off the back of the more vital employees

Ever since the term 'Human Resource' was introduced instead of 'Personnel' I've hated it. Resources, to me, are materials and machinery, not blood and flesh. A person is far more important than a machine, gold, or any other type of ore.

We are just starting to get over another Human Resource, the Slave Trade, and now condemn its past so why continue with such a dreadful name.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I'm the same. It equates a sentient being with a lump of coal. We termed HR as Human Remains. I always remember a Private Eye cartoon where someone is running a burger van and it has a long brick extension with lots of windows and a sign: 'HR Department'.

These humanity rejects only serve the employer, and definitely not the employee.

Nah, that’s not right. But you have solved Fermat’s last theorum.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

HR departments, like any other are only as good as the folk working in them.

I’ve recently left a trust who had an awful HR director who was well out of his depth.

As a union caseworker I’ve also dealt with some decent folk…

I’ve never seen the continuous verb ‘onboarding’ used before. 🙂

It's used all the time by tech and start-up businesses who for some reason have an aversion to the word "induction". 100% a Stockwood influenced vocab choice.

Businessfolk like to coin new verbs. 'Ringfencing' is one which only appeared a decade ago or so, I seem to recall.
