Dear,

As many departments come under HR, but there is no specific rule for that; it depends on the organization. For example, in many small-scale industries, HR/Personnel is the same, but in giant and huge industries, HR Administration, Personnel, and Time Office can be different.

Dear Member,

In any company, the size of the HR department depends on the size of the organization. In a big organization, the HR department has the following sub-departments:
1) Training & Development
2) Recruitment
3) Payroll
4) Administration
5) Organizational Development
6) Legal

In small companies, all these activities are typically managed by only 2 or 3 persons.

Hi,

There is no rule for this; it all depends on the organization's goals. The human resource department is devoted to providing effective policies, procedures, and people-friendly guidelines and support within companies. Please see below a list of HR responsibilities but not limited to:

- Recruiting
- Hiring
- Training
- Organization Development
- Communication
- Performance Management
- Coaching
- Policy Recommendation
- Salary and Benefits
- Team Building
- Employee Relations
- Leadership

Some of these responsibilities could be turned into departments. Now, it also depends on the skills of the HR manager, and the organization could arrange to have other functions reporting to HR, such as IT, Legal, General Administration, Government Relations, etc., basically all support functions.

Hi,

Departments under HR, according to me, are as mentioned below:
1) Training
2) Front desk or telemarketers (if any)
3) Administration

Besides this, recruitment, PIP (Performance Improvement Program), and removal of non-performers at specific intervals go without saying.

Hope this may be helpful to you.

Good Luck.

Don't confuse with the functions of HR. Just think the basics: whatever relates to the manpower in a company is HR. The basic functions are: Recruitment, Development, Retention, and Separation. All the sub-departments which my friends have deliberated come under these heads.

Recruitment is a strategic function involving understanding the business requirements and providing the necessary manpower in sufficient quantity and quality at the right time. Basic induction and training are part of this phase.

Development includes areas such as Training and Development, talent management, competency mapping, and performance management, among others.

Retention encompasses Compensation & Benefits, career planning, and administration.

Separation involves handling separation benefits and formalities.

Friends, if you would like to build upon this, you are most welcome.

Dear Sanjulee,

I am working in a company in the retail sector where we have "Talent Acquisition" and "Talent Management" teams.

The Talent Acquisition team takes care of Recruitment & Selection, and the Talent Management team takes care of the Lifecycle Management of every employee in the organization, i.e., right from joining to the separation of the employee.

Hello Shepali!!! Please, can you tell me what the job of the Talent Management department under HR is? As I'm a management student planning to specialize in HR, this would be of great help.
