Dear All,
I have joined a new company after a break of 2.6 years, and in this organization, I am the first HR, so it's like there are no processes in place. For setting up the entire system, kindly guide me on what things need to be considered for the first year. It seems they don't have even basic things in place, not even job descriptions. It's a mid-sized organization with around 120 employees.

As the first HR professional in a mid-sized organization, start by focusing on foundational processes for your first year:
Compliance: Ensure legal and statutory compliance (labor laws, PF, ESI, etc.).
Policies: Draft key HR policies (leave, attendance, code of conduct, etc.).
Job Descriptions: Work with managers to create JDs for all roles.
Recruitment: Set up a structured recruitment and onboarding process.
Payroll: Establish accurate payroll and benefits administration.
Performance Management: Implement a simple performance appraisal system.
Employee Engagement: Foster a positive culture with regular engagement activities.
HRIS: Explore an HR software to streamline processes as you scale.
Prioritize based on immediate organizational needs and consult leadership for alignment.
