Hi
I have joined an IT company last year in Nov’10 as a Assit.Manager –HR.. Strength of this co is only 30-40 employees and there is nothing much to do.I am the only person in HR Earlier I was in the Co. which was having the strength of 800 employees. Whatever I have learned in that Company (earlier one) implemented here e.g
Recruitment process,
Induction ppt,
Employee handbook,
Payroll sheet,
Performance Review format.
Other useful formats
I didn’t find more learning here. I can’t leave this co. because I have not even completed 1 yr of my service here.
Can any body suggest me what should I do ?
Regards

Hello Pretti ,
Working as a single person as HR that too after coming from a company
where 800 people were there is a very difficult work.one feels degraded.
Get the complete knowledge as a whole regarding every aspect of HR.
especially legal part of HR and then shift to a better job.

What was your objective for joining the company? Obviously, you would be aware of the company and its area of operations and employee strength before joining.

Everyone joins the company with some objective. If your objective is fulfilled, then start searching for a new company. Otherwise, have patience and try to achieve your objective and fulfill the company's objective as they have also hired you with something in mind. :)

Dear Preeti,
I could step into your shoes to realize the saturation point you are at now. Well, I feel that the number of staff does matter towards your activities and responsibilities. However, at the same time, I should also look for the company's growth in the near future by doing my analysis...
What type of company is it?
How has it been constant in the market since its venture?
What will it be in the next two years?
If the growth is visible and practical, how will my role be?
Do I foresee any team that I can lead? At the same time, how will this impact my compensation factors/benefits... etc.
It's easy to advise you, but I strongly recommend doing your analysis on these points. It's just been 8 months since you joined; compare your experience with your analysis.
If you are spending time there with a calculation of completing one year, trust me... you are not going to stick there for a long time.
HR performs a strong role in employee management towards attrition and retention. Being in this profile, I am sure that you understood the hidden contributing factors for this statement.
You will just get answers based on assumptions for your thread, but I recommend you work on your goal against your career and field of interest.
GOOD LUCK!!!!

Hi, I am in exactly the same situation as Preeti is currently. However, I switched companies because the contract with the previous company ended. So, I had to look for another option and join immediately without any gap. But, I feel the same way as Preeti is feeling.

Hi,
Thank you for the prompt reply.
Previously, I was working in an insurance company where most of the employees were not well-educated (graduates or undergraduates, immature). I wanted to shift to an IT company where I could find more intellectual people.
Moreover, at the time of joining, I was informed that there were around 100 employees across India. However, this turned out not to be the case, and since I had already left my previous company, I did not have any other option. I decided to streamline all their processes. During this period, I have worked on the following:
- Employee Database (Master Data)
- Employees' Leave/Attendance records
- Recruitment Process
- Induction PowerPoint
- Payroll Database
- PMS forms and processes
- Association with new clients to deploy our resources (employees)
Currently, I am working on the HR Manual, modifying it. I anticipate looking for another job within 8-9 months, which may raise questions about my stability.
My main concern is that I am working here as an Assistant Manager and need to justify what I have learned in this year as I aim to progress to the next level after a year. There is no senior in HR to guide me, so I am implementing what I have learned in my previous job.
