CHR
660

Really an important question - Is HR an advocate for the employee or the employer? Or perhaps they are the nurturers of the relationship that exists solely for the reason of profit making. Blending things like humanity, counselling and arbitration into the mix to keep things sane and tolerable.
Excerpt:
"By the 1930s human resources started to become and be seen as advocates for employees and the reason for that, frankly, was because companies were trying to keep unions out,” explained Peter Cappelli, professor of management at The Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and director of the Center for Human Resources. “The idea of being able to tell people at the top of the company: ‘Hey, the workers are unhappy about this’ really mattered because they cared whether workers were unhappy because they thought they might unionize otherwise. In that period, HR developed this kind of reputation as being the workers' advocate and that's probably true up to 1970.”

Dear CHR,
HR- individual is nothing but an employee of the organisation, like others working in same organisation.
Where management is friendly and humanitarian the HR is good but when reverse the HR is Bad. The HR generalist can never be bad because all the Acts & rules framed are workmen or employee friendly.
There are some people who want to extract benefit by exploiting ignorance of the workmen/employee regarding their privileges. Not only that the union formed to safeguard the rights of employee goes in the hand of management sacrificing the very goal. This feeling is due to change behaviour(lust,greed &passion) of human. In near future some change is expected as some old laws are being simplified.
