Mfanelo Khoza
The financial crisis brings with it serious
challenges in the workplace, among others, job uncertainty, lower stuff morale which result to poor performances, higher tensions between employers and employees and a general hostile working environment.
With all of the above, it is a duty of HR Managers
to turn around all the above with applicable change management theories, crisis management theories and also motivational theories.
We should always remember that the role of human resources management functions in a workplace has drastically changed from a traditional HR, we are now looking at
HR as core business partner, and as the people responsible of our core resources (PEOPLE), there is no way we can regard them less in the financial crisis.
