2. Advises Management
Throughout my 25+ year career in HR, I have heard every misconception about HR you can imagine. HR does not hire or fire, managers do. HR helps to mitigate risks, protect the company culture, advise employees/management on policies and procedures and, if done correctly, be a strategic partner with the top level executives to ensure the "humans" are not left out of any key decision-making process. - Tana M.
