The Shifting Role of HR

Shifting Demands and Responses

Organizations are requiring a different form of involvement from their Human Resources functions. They are being asked to assume more strategic acocuntability regarding both work technology and economic decisions for the organization.

The push for change has several causes that impact the shifting role of HR functions and the activities that must be accomplished. These causes tend to be driven more operationally than philosophically, due to changes in the workforce and the way work needs to be done. the nature of these causes suggests that work environments need options to consider rather than answers from experts in regard to HR planning and activities.
