A new HR network has seen the light of day in Billund ErhvervsFremme and has just held its first meeting. The network currently consists of of employees from nine very different companies who have HR tasks but do not have a large HR department behind them. The purpose of the network is to develop a local confidential forum for sparring and continuous development of the participants and their companies within the HR area. Should there be more interested among our members, you are welcome to contact Marianne Thomsen on tel. 2269 2498 to find out more.
The desire to share experiences and ask questions was great from the start, and the desire of the participants is to be able to tackle each other with both big and small challenges within their field. Often there will be a topic from a presenter for inspiration and further discussion - this first time about pre- and onboarding, which we all do to some extent, but with advantage could have more focus on to ensure that the new employee as well, quickly and safely as possible become part of the company's culture and get off to a good start with the tasks.
The network has agreed to meet once a quarter, and there is no shortage of ideas for future topics, as HR employees, despite coming from very different companies, are often affected by the same issues and challenges. Recruitment and retention of employees is a focus area for all companies and the challenges in this area have not diminished after the corona.
