Importance of HR section in company website

 "The HR section on a corporate website must reflect primarily the work culture, people friendly
practices..tht makes any organisation a great organisation to work with, a career progression
Model / Chart (If at all the company use any Model / Chart and if not, then probably....you can
reflect the basis on which the careerpath is chalked out for the building blocks of the
organisation)....all these things should be meticulously presented in order to keep certain things
discreet as well as at the same time building the brand of the company.....the company which
invest in people from time to time goes a long way in attracting talent....therefore i believe these
are few things that must be reflected in the HR section of a company website from HR point of
view

Let us examine this from a two fold perspective.


1) Internal communciation via the Intranet and
2) External communication via the Internet

Essentially, the core objective of both will be to provide information, however the information to
be provided would differ.

1) Internal communication via the intranet:


Here the objective should be to provide useful information/content to existing employees and to
retain the existing employees by recognising the top performers.
The content could include:
a) Information of the company policy with periodical updates
b) Information about compensation, reimbursement, leave and its current status - employees can
log in via a password and their employee code number and check up the status of these items
c) Information about jobs available internally - employees can either apply and move laterally or
can refer others (and earn some referral fee)
d) News and events - new accounts won, picnics held, family news items such as marriage, birth
of children, accomplishments of employee's kids, interviews with key high flying employees etc
- in other words soft content
e) Messages from the heads of various service lines, chairman, ceo, coo etc

2) External communication via the Intranet:


Here the objective would be to get the message of the company across - what it values the most,
how does it build an employee's career - the end objective is to attract the right employees
The content could include:
1) Message from the chairman/HR director on the company's values
2) Interviews from various employees describing their job and how they have progressed in the
company
3) Jobs available including online application forms
4) Description of how career building is taken seriously

An HR section on a corporate website has to be entry point into the HR portal for the company
employees. Besides this the corporate website can also have a Careers section which integrates
with the HR Portal.
The HR Portal is the place where the employee interfaces with the company for routine day to
day chores. It can be roughly thought of in two parts.

First the content part where communications from the company to the employee and vice versa
are handled. These would include CEO messages, notices and circulars, news and events,
Birthdays and Anniversaries, auctions and garage sales, chat rooms, opinion polls and so on. In
addition specific employee driven content could also be accessed for ready reference.

The second is the transactions part which is a regular HR system dealing with the employee lafe
cycle management and takes care of leaves, travel, reimbursements, stationery and consumables,
assets and so on.

Very simply, strategic HR objectives should answer the following:

1. What are some of the interesting things we've done last year?
2. What is the kind of work environment we have created?
3. What's our work culture and values?
4. How and why we value human capital?
5. How are we different? What are we like?
6. Why join us? Deciding if you have a fit with the organization.
7. How to apply?

By doing the above, HR would facilitate decision-making. That could work as a good checkpoint
for the content/pages created.

It's also the responsibilty of HR to simplify the content, especially the last two points. It can be
very discerning for candidates to come across a complex application system.
* Providing an accessible, speedy, cost-effective, bi-lingual and responsive service for
departmental management, individual members of staff, and other clients of Human Resources.
This service will include the provision of strategic vision, specialist advice and practical support.

* Providing individual members of staff with information relating to staff development and
training opportunities, pay and other benefits, pension scheme entitlements, retirement options,
flexible working arrangements and Family Friendly policies.

* Developing an integrated set of HR policy statements, codes of practice and guidelines to


ensure that common standards prevail throughout the University, and through liaison with the
OHSU, ensure that due and proper consideration of health and safety issues is reflected in its
policies; providing high quality management information, recommendations and advice to senior
colleagues on HR issues, employment law, statutory compliance, national and local collective
agreements, and professional good practice.

Whatever format your portal takes, there needs to be both a "push" and a "pull" aspect to it. On
one hand, the organization will need to push out information, policy, motivational messages,
whatever. On the other hand, people will need to be able to access "knowledge on demand" to
get their (or their clients/customers) questions answered, get the information/direction needed to
do their jobs, or make the organization aware that there is a gap in knowledge, skill, application,
etc. and that it needs to be addressed.

Some organization's create standing employee focus groups, "values sensing sessions," or other
sharing forums to enable employees to share their ideas, needs, and constructive criticisms on
HR portals, formats, content, etc.

Being proactive will enable your HR function to move in the minds of your people from a
compliance/"cop" mentality to one of service and support. This will help enable your HR
function to be seen as an enabler of performance, a team player, and a value-adding entity.

New Events in an Organisation, as any competitions across levels or any fun cell activities or any
recent out door activities.

New Openings
Current Openings and where the HR Team is hiring, which region , Walkins location, if any.

New Achievements.
Any achievement related to a new technology, which is been initiated or any new big
(prestigeous) project, or any related information.

and i think We should not forget to add acheivements as it represents an Organisation's standing
in the Industry and also helps in Branding.

I hope that this small piece of Information can help you someway or the other.

The only real reasons people will go to your corporate website are as:

1 Customers
2 Competitors
3 (Potential) Investors
4 (Potential) Employees

(or any combination)

It's your shop window for the first three, so logically should also be a shop-window for
recruiting?

In many cases it's the single most effective tool in attracting and recruiting staff directly
(avoiding agency fees) and certainly the best way to set out your stall as an employer.

If you don;t egt a senior HR stakeholder involved in the project now, then they will be (rightly!)
forever banging on your door to change things!

Summary

So now, when you hand someone your business card or brochure, they will also see your website
address. When they later have a need for your product or service they can see your business on
the Internet and find the information they need to make a buying decision. If you've moved to a
new location, have a new phone number or new business hours, or if anything else about your
business has changed, they can still reach you through your website address

can be tailored to your specific goals.

Career progression

Progression is based purely on merit & potential. With advice and guidance
from your manager & HR, you will take control of your own career
development.

Planning

across different operating environments and processes, and develop capability in your chosen
area of expertise. Performing well will lead to opportunities to take on new and more challenging
roles. That in turn will allow you to deepen and broaden your skills and experience.

Depth & breadth

Depth of experience is about developing professional skills through performing and practising
your role. We'll encourage you to build this depth of skill early in your career to provide a solid
basis for further progression.

Breadth of experience is about increasing your knowledge and understanding of the business as a
whole, so you can assess complex issues from different angles. Naturally, this becomes more
important as seniority increases.

Wider experience

International experience is essential in many roles within a global organisation – and


assignments offer valuable development opportunities. You can also gain exposure through
regional/global roles and project teams.

experience may be vital to help leverage our global scale.

organisation. It helps you plan how you'll develop skills and leadership behaviours for your
current position and for the years ahead. It also gives you the opportunity to clarify expectations
and discuss future opportunities.

Ongoing commitment

PDP provides a continual process that allows for a thorough evaluation of your performance. It's
an approach designed to encourage clarity and transparency throughout the year.

The key thing to remember is that this is an ongoing dialogue between you and your manager.
It's about listening, sharing and accepting feedback, and taking responsibility for the next step in
your career.
