Advice on how to manage your wellbeing when working in HR
The work of people professionals has unique and often challenging responsibilities such as managing conflict, undertaking redundancy and restructuring. People professionals are often the ‘face’ of such activities or programmes, even if they are not the decision makers. HR work may also involve advising on or supporting employees through difficult emotional or personal situations such as health issues. It often requires people professionals to carefully balance the complex (and sometimes conflicting) needs of stakeholders in the organisation. Such work can be highly demanding, especially emotionally.
