In the past couple of years, an important issue has come to the forefront in Human Resources: pay transparency.
About one third of employees in the US don’t feel they are compensated fairly, according to a Beqom survey, and over half of employed adults said they would change jobs to work at a company with more pay transparency.
Managing remote employees can be tricky but overcoming challenges in the hybrid workplace is achievable. Hybrid work plans, which combine in-office and remote work, are becoming increasingly popular as employees seek a balance between the benefits of both models. Hybrid work plans offer the opportunity for employees to interact with one another in the office while also providing flexibility to work from home.
However, it’s important to be aware that there are signs that a hybrid work plan may not be the most effective for a company. As per the survey conducted by Owl Labs, globally, 16% of the total employees are working remotely, whereas 62% have opted for working hybrid.
Human Resources professionals know that human relations are the gateway to employees and a successful business. Human relations are so important because this sets the tone for the working environment, and how employees interact internally with one another as well as externally with customers or clients.
Management of human resources focuses more on the business-centric side, whereas human relations concerns employees and the creation of a productive and thriving workplace.
