The role of a HR dept is critical to any business.  HR is more than just hiring people.  They are also responsible for keeping people by managing their payroll, training, compensation, benefits (lots of jobs here from administration to pension management), and the strategic direction of the company.  There are a lot of opportunities in HR as a career.  Talk to people, do some exploring and see if it is for you.  Good luck.

typically involves the development (i.e. education) of employees.  For example, providing diversity training or specific skills training - like training on project management or programming skills would all be human resource development.\n\nWhen the term is used this formally though, it's typically being said by the HR (Human Resource) department, so it probably implies a more general training for the entire corporate workforce (i.e. diversity training or 401K plan training, etc.).  Or, it some instances, it could be used to describe development of a resource who is not performing well.  In other words, if a person gets a bad review, they may have to go through "human resource development."

Human resource managers "hire and train employees, evaluate performance and determine compensation. At large firms, separate departments deal with recruiting and hiring, wage and salary levels, and labor relations. A smaller firm may have a single department - or a single person - responsible for all human resource activities."

HR?  Human Resources?  If so, what products are you offering?  Recruiting, benefits, employee relations?\nI would market to small employers that need HR expertise, but don't have the resources to have a full-time HR professional and to mid-sized employers that have HR staff but need the "bells and whistles".

Managing a department is managing payroll, resources: human capital as well as other resources; seeing that the department achieves it's goals and objectives.. Managing a project could involve allot of similar things, however each project has a time line: start and the end, and goals are much more specific. This can be a 10 page essay, so I'm giving a quick 2-minute overview.

IR, or Industrial Relations, law are the body of laws, administrative rulings, and precedents which addresses the legal rights of, and restrictions on, workers and their organizations. As such, it mediates many aspects of the relationship between trade unions, employers and employees. In some countries (such as Canada), employment laws related to unionised workplaces are differentiated from those relating to particular individuals. In most countries however, no such distinction is made. The labour movement has been instrumental in the enacting of laws protecting labour rights in the 19th and 20th centuries.
