HUMAN RESOURCES FADS 6

 In concluding this Content, my intention was to discuss Salary Administration Vs Pay Roll but decided against it for peace by talking about a Fad - Remote Work.

COVID-19 came with all her disruptions to work. However, the Charlatans took the coping mechanism as a normal work even after the situation has return almost to status quo amte. 

The very few loud charlatans who work in service organizations never allowed those who cannot work remote by the nature of their unique operations were made to feel like subhuman essentially because they wish to feel belonged to the new so-called normal.

It becomes so abnormal in a country without electricity for campaigns for remote work.

An example was a "Figure" in the professional body work for the most fully backward integrated company in our country did not moderate this foolish campaign of the Thinking global and Acting global, instead of Thinking global and Acting Local. How can that most fully backward integrated company work remote?

The funny aspect of this Fad of remote working is that while large gathering of professional take place, remote meetings are still being enforced by grassroot units till date.

Please pardon me for talking as a bushman, this is not uncommitted to the fact that I was a Factory HR Professional.

Finally, allow me to say that until you practice HR in a factory, you are a nonstarter in this profession.

HR MISTAKES BY YOURS TRULY 8

 I have a first degree in Sociology and Anthropology from the best university then in that discipline in Nigeria, the University of Benin, Benin City. During my undergraduate days, I decided not to earn naira on graduation, so when my course mates were rushing to major in Organizational Behaviour, I opted for Medical Sociology. I equally decided to go on to obtain a Masters Degree in Epidemiology so as to ensure that I work with either WHO or UNICEF where I would be paid in dollars.

THE LAW OF REST 1

There are two Economics laws that best  explain, the law of Rest. These laws are: The law of Diminishing Returns and The Law of Marginal Utility. The Law of Rest states that when you work and rest and work again, you produce more than when you work continuously without rest. The application of this Law of Rest has been manifest in the practice of Bush Fallowing and/ or Shifting Cultivation in Agriculture. Applied to fair labour practice, it results in the principle of annual vacation for employees. Employees are meant to stop work and rest for 30 minutes after 4 hours of work. This accounts for why employees who work 8 hours a day,, are given 1 hour break in between the 8 hours. Applied to yearly work, every employee is entitled to a number of weeks vacation every year without negotiation. In fact in my clime, the law says, an employee shall not accumulate more than two years vacation. Any employee in any organisation where the CEO goes on vacation annually, and does not go on vaca...

WHAT IS YOUR SALARY EXPECTATION? 2

 The above question is irrelevant for people who join organisations by Nepotism because interviews are merely to fulfill all righteousness. For others who join organisations by merit, it is a most important question because it is a question you already knew would be asked. Failing this all important question shows lack of proper preparation for the interview. I dealt with this question in two forms:- Firstly, From the Consultant's perspective. Secondly, From the direct employer's perspective. Based on my knowledge of salaries paid in various sectors of the Nigerian economy, when a consultant asked, to answer I only demand to know the sector her client was operating. As regards the direct employer, it was even easier to answer. I always found out what were the going rates in that industry. Three examples to clarify the points above. These examples will cover two from Structured Organisations and one from Unstructured Organisation, the ones I generally call "Mosafejo Compani...
