4. Powers and laws pertaining to HR:  The top management level can also be called the Elite group. They are the decision makers of the organization. They include Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Operations Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer and Chief Information Officer. All these posts come with a high level of power along with a huge package of responsibility. Their goals and objectives, plans and strategies affect the entire organization. But the one officer that has maximum impact on the employees is the Chief Human Resources Officer. His decisions and plans can create jobs and reshuffle existing staff. His goals to ensure that the employees are working at an optimum level so that there is maximum profit for the business.

6. Indispensability of HR: Human Resource is the mainstay of a business organization. How is a company going to operate without its workforce?

Why an employee is under-performing has to be solved at a broader company level rather than resorting to blame game. If every employee in your organization is satisfied with his job profile and remuneration you have created a profitable company.
