Anoo & Lavanya, thanks tons for understanding the need for these forums. It feels awesome that there are people like you who are generous and, at the same time, know how to put things in proper fashion, which indeed encourages budding HR professionals. Good job and keep up this attitude. Every HR or any management professional should know that they are humans first and then later on HR professionals or other designations.
People these days have common sense of searching and then putting a question, and even if one doesn't search on citehr (maybe because of short time and for a number of reasons), it's good to know that there are still broad-minded people like you all to help professionals by understanding the situations and providing solutions in a good fashion rather than a sarcastic way. I am fortunate I belong to a community where people like you all exist. Thanks again.
Cheers,
Rashmi Bhalerao

Dear Member,
This kind of attitude is not good for this forum. First time when I joined this forum, I was really impressed. However, based on your comments, it seems like no new members have joined. I am not sure where I stand knowledge-wise, and I am not a newcomer. I use HR dashboards weekly with the main goal of improving. I appreciate your comments for newcomers. To all members - please encourage new members to conduct initial research before approaching us or anyone specialized in that area. No one is truly specialized in HR. What I mean is that the role of HR is very intense.

Hi Ash, you are absolutely right. I remember when I asked a question on "Talk to Seniors" when I was new to CiteHR about what competency mapping is. The immediate reply was from Simhan sir that this topic is already covered. Then I realized that first, we should search CiteHR or use Google search. Sharing other things is okay, but sometimes, as you said, there are fewer possibilities for certain topics you are searching for. That's not exactly what you want or expect from members.

Dear Rakesh,
If improving the existing one that you are using was the idea, why don't you share the one that you are using, so that people on citehr who are experienced may be able to guide you to improvise on it. Hope you now understood what I meant - whatever is the initial work done, please let us know. And I hope you searched the link I provided in my post (nothing much but just something linking to downloads in citehr).
At the same time, defining a "fresher" is really different in my context when I put it across in my previous comment. For example - in my case - I have strong experience with recruitment, but when it comes to reward management - I am a fresher in that subject. So rather than asking what is reward management or plainly putting it as - help me improve on it, I'd rather say "Hey - I have worked on one, why don't you suggest if this is okay, or if there is a better one I could refer to?" That works!

Dear Slesha,
I have not come across such studies. However, you can try and see if the paper at ScienceDirect - European Management Journal: Commitment and work-related expectations in flexible employment forms: An empirical study of German IT freelancers <link updated to site home> (Search On Cite | Search On Google) has any information that suits you.
This was found at media industry + contractual + permanent employee + questionnaire - Google Search=
The papers don't come cheap. However, you can find out the email ID of the authors by doing a search of the web and write to them. Usually they oblige if you clearly state who you are and why you want a copy of their paper. I have even received whole PhD dissertation copies from a couple of authors.

I support the views of Narasimhan and Ash. He has been stressing this very often, but the newcomers wouldn't have read his posts. I understand that many who have completed MBA or PGDBA directly register here and expect something 'readymade' rather than 'finding' out on their own.
Inside a supermarket, we search for something, and if it's not visible to our eyes, we get the help of the salesgirl. Don't we? No doubt, many of us have traveled this journey from the boarding point as a fresher, but posting a query to ask for the full form of 'PF', 'ESI' is something ridiculous. Such questions need not be asked but searched with keywords.
When you hit upon the right post and site, your joy is great. By this way, you can become an expert by getting into any type of search on any topic, provided you have interest and patience.

Hello Didar,
Usually, the country will have fire regulations that need to be adhered to, and these regulations vary depending upon the nature of the establishment. The way to access it from the internet is to go to www.google.com and use "Fire Policy" as the key phrase. The more specific the keyword you choose, the fewer sites you will have to sift through.
Please let me know how you progress. Like Mohamed Sardhar has said, "I am trying to teach you to fish" rather than giving you "fish."
Have a nice weekend.

Hi Ash,
I wonder if everything is available on this site; then it's over. There should not be any queries/posts here after. If this is the case, we should call CiteHR a search engine rather than a discussion forum. 😄
Agreed, there is information for each topic here, but as queries come up again, new suggestions, views, formats, and additions take place. If, for example, there are 5 formats available for a particular topic on this site, a few more will be added through the posting of queries. It will be an addition to the existing information.
I hope you got my point.

Dear Rajeev,
Your point is well understood. If there are five formats available, then all I ask is for you to read those five formats and get back with better questions! This approach will likely prompt people to create and improve upon a better one, rather than sticking with the existing format.
Where is the generator of the thread? Perhaps they can share what they have (if that was their idea - to enhance what they are doing), so that we can suggest potential improvements. Ultimately, people can also make use of it! Does this all make sense to you?
Thank you.
