Basic building blocks of an effective HR function for your business – part three.

It is common to hear companies profess that their most important asset is their people; but how many really apply the same basic business principles to their human assets as they do to other tangible company assets?

Effective Human Resource management requires strategic planning, budgeting and execution at all levels of your business. In addition to stereotypical HR activities (i.e., payroll, benefits administration, record-keeping, etc.), basic management of your Human Resources function requires a variety of critical everyday activities. Some of the most basic building blocks of a good HR program for your foodservice operation include:

1.    Staffing
2.    Training 
3.    Compliance
 

 

This article addresses compliance and is part three of a three-part collection.  Use the links above to review other building blocks for HR systems.
Compliance – Provincial, territorial and/or federal legislative

·    Minimum workplace standards are enforced provincially, territorially and federally through various government bodies and regulations. Legislation and regulations outline mandatory training, certification, programs, policies and materials for posting.

·    Do you know the employer responsibilities and requirements that you must follow in the
geographical areas where you conduct business?

·    The following is a checklist of some of the key Human Resources legislation that you may need to comply and operate under:

-    Employment Standards

-    Human Rights

-    Occupational Health and Safety

-    Labour Relations

-    Pay Equity

-    Workplace Safety

We have provided a Checklist covering important components of HR information handling.
