Chapter 5 - Legal Side

The legislative framework that is adopted by governments is a reflection of our values. For the HR manager, a clear understanding of the legal framework is absolutely necessary.

Human resources managers plan, organize, direct, control and evaluate the operations of human resources and personnel departments, and develop and implement policies, programs and procedures regarding human resource planning, recruitment, collective bargaining, training and development, occupation classification and pay and benefit administration. They represent management and participate actively on various joint committees to maintain ongoing relations between management and employees. They are employed throughout the private and public sectors.
