Hi,
Thank you for all the suggestions. Even I am facing the same problem. I was appointed as the HR over here, but all they are doing is giving me orders to hire people without having any job portal. It's really a tough task for me. They are planning to expand as a placement agency, and I have to take contracts from the companies. Am I doing HR work or some BDM work? Moreover, I have not been involved in any policy-making meetings. I want to learn more and more, but how can I if I am not getting enough time to concentrate on HR issues? Whatever I get is from this site only.
Please help me.

Dear Friend,
Whenever you want to introduce a new system, you have to gain the confidence of each H.O.D. and the management, convince them, and get a positive signal from them. Assign responsibilities accordingly to implement the system. Identify the weaknesses that are causing you harassment and turn them into your strengths whenever required.

Dear All,
I agree to what you have suggested. But here, people are so stubborn that they don't want to listen to anything that has been implemented. They taunt me; some people are nice to my face but speak ill about me and support others who are against me. This cheap thinking and behavior need to change.
As far as management is concerned, I am not getting full support for what I need to do. I have implemented deductions for late coming after asking employees to arrive on time. However, now I am facing resistance from management regarding Saturday working hours up to 3 PM, as per the official 48 working hours per week. They are not approving this change.
Employees here seem to think that I am working to impress management and not for their benefit. They feel their prospects are not being considered. What should I do in such a case? I need your advice.

Hi, I am Rajat. There is no need to panic. Take it easy because they are employees. If they would not do such things, how would you get a chance to prove yourselves? It's not everyone who can reach the top management level. So, just relax. If required, make your policies and procedures flexible for them. See if they are enjoying it or not. Also, check their attitude towards work. Those who are not working properly, give them more work. Reward the person who is fulfilling his responsibilities accordingly. Measure performance every day and give them the best you can. The most important thing is to do this with a sense of betterment of the employees and a positive state of mind. You will get the required results. All the very best.

Please take your MD into confidence. I believe you have made HR policies after discussing with your MD. Try to relate yourself with all your staff members through regular communication and do not thrust anything onto them for quick results suiting your job responsibilities.

Sorry to say, if you are the only person in your department, there is nothing immediate you could do unless you have the trust of the company owner. Just try to stick around and not push rules immediately. Keep on looking at your options.
