HR plays a key role in helping companies deal with a fast-changing business environment and a greater demand for quality employees in the 21st century.

• Human resources (HR) is the division of a business responsible for finding, recruiting, screening, and training job applicants.
• HR departments also handle employee compensation, benefits, and terminations.
• Human resource management (HRM) strategies focus on actively advancing and improving an organization's workforce with the long-term goal of improving the organization itself.

• Many companies have moved traditional HR administrative duties such as payroll and benefits to outside vendors.

An HR department is an essential component of any business, regardless of an organization's size. It is tasked with maximizing employee productivity and protecting the company from any issues that may arise within the workforce.

HR responsibilities include compensation and benefits, recruitment, retention, firing, and keeping up to date with any laws that may affect the company and its employees.

A human resources department is focused on the recruitment and retention of employees within a company. HR typically finds, hires (and fires), and trains employees. It oversees employee relations and manages benefit programs. It's the place where an employee goes with questions about their position at the company, to address concerns, and to air grievances.

A company's human resources (HR) department manages the life cycle of each employee-from recruitment and onboarding to training and termination or retirement. HR departments also must monitor industry trends and rules to stay on top of compliance and legal issues.

Increasingly, HR departments focus on human resource management, using strategic investments and initiatives to improve an organization's workforce. The long-term goal of HRM is to create a more positive, loyal, and productive workforce, which ultimately benefits the company.
