What HRM functions must be performed regardless of the organization's size?

Human
resource management functions must be performed by any business that has employees (human
resources.) This includes the smallest family-owned and operated corner store to a large
multi-national corporation.

Of course, smaller businesses lack large,
independent HR departments, but even in these organizations someone has to perform the basic HR
tasks. These include interviewing, hiring, and ensuring that the business has all the necessary
documents a person needs to work. Even small business owners have to keep up with Social
Security numbers, track Social Security contributions, and ensure that prospective employees
possess the appropriate legal documentation to work.

Payroll falls under
human resource management and, of course, any organization has to keep up with the hours that
their employees work to ensure proper compensation. People who are injured on the job, no matter
how small, have to report their injuries to their supervisors. Additionally, managing workers'
compensation and paid leave is another reality for all business owners.

Human
resource management also encompasses training, which must happen in any business. Human resource
managers in large businesses are usually specialists, but in smaller businesses their work is
just one more thing the business owner has to handle. For this reason, some small businesses
contract out some of the work of human resource management to independent payroll companies,
staffing agencies, benefits managers, or other specialized companies.
