Recruitment and Selection:


Recruitment and selection is a fundamental function of HR. It involves identifying the need for a role,
writing up job descriptions, defining the requirements of the role and the skill set of the right candidate,
setting salary budgets, advertising to the right people, screening interviewing, and selecting the best
person for the job.

Training and Development:


HR Training and development is vital for addressing skill or training deficits among employees and
providing them with the necessary tools to strengthen their skill sets, improve their confidence, and
perform more effectively. Employers who invest in their workforce in this way see distinct increases in
employee satisfaction and morale. They are seen to be valued and supported and more likely to feel
motivated in their roles.

Performance Management:
Performance management is usually facilitated by Human Resources with the help of line managers.
It is a tool to monitor progress and evaluate employees’ work, attitude, efficiency, and effectiveness.
Employee Relations:
There are two primary functions when it comes to Employee Relations (ER). Firstly, HR helps prevent
and resolve problems or disputes between employees and management. Secondly, they assist in
creating and enforcing policies that are fair and consistent for the whole workforce.

Employment Law and Compliance:


Every HR practitioner should stay familiar and up to date with employment law and ensure the
organizational policies, procedures, and benefits comply with the latest laws. Employment law is the
legal framework within which the organization must operate. There are a wide range of laws and
regulations that cover a myriad of human resource practices such as recruitment, performance
management, employee relations, compensation, and health and safety.

Compensation and Benefits:


Compensation and benefits is likely every employee’s favorite HR function. Compensation is the basic
salary that is agreed upon with each employee. Company benefits offered to employees can range
from pay raises linked to appraisals, social security, pensions, private health insurance, longevity
perks, corporate discounts, paid holidays, paid sick leave, childcare facilities, profit sharing, gym
membership, and many more depending on the priorities of the company and its employees .

Administration, Payroll & HR Systems:


Developing systems, maintaining employee data, calculating taxes, prorating working hours and
holidays, and paying salaries are some of the administrative duties that usually fall under HR. Some
larger organizations may have a separate payroll team that works together with the HR department.

Opportunities of staff development:


Employee development is the process of working with your employees to develop, improve, and hone existing
skills and train them on new skills. Employee development aims to build a talent pool that supports the
organization’s mission while creating highly engaged employees.

But employee development isn’t just about paying for some seminars or having employees complete training
exercises.

1. Refresher training: Refresher training is coaching or teaching on a specific subject that learners have
already encountered, that's designed to jog their memory and boost their knowledge on the topic .

2. Providing materials for self-study: Self-learning materials are educational tools meant to help
learners obtain information and skills on their own, without the assistance of a teacher or instructor.
Books, videos, online courses, and other resources that learners may access at their own pace and
convenience are examples of these items.

Case Study:
Answer: According to Tony's statement, one way the statement is depicting this hotel is that it actually
suggests that the motivation of this hotel worker is very much low and not employee-satisfying. Actually, for the
workplaces such as this one which is a city hotel, the most frequently used motivator should be a good pay and
this is basically due to the load of work and the manner in which the workers are engaged in their duties. So, a
good compensation in the form of good money pay will motivate the employees more and more and they will
become contented with their job.

Another way that the statement is suggesting the motivation of this hotel worker is that the hotel is not giving
attention to scale of work compensation. This is evidenced by the fact that Tony must just extend the work
realm by deciding to work over the weekend is when he can meet the desired pay at the job. This means that
the hotel is not given a deeper look into the scale of work that the employees are attached to.
