Managing employees is a special task that HR professionals must know to achieve their daily assigned tasks and targets. Also, it’s one of the biggest responsibilities in the workplace so managers should not apply the codes in office environments that drive their employees away.
Human Resource Professionals and Management Ethics
Most of the time HR professionals lack basic work ethics that drive their employees away and create a fussy environment among employees, which results in demotivation, disturbance, and mismanagement in the workplace.
Some of the basic work ethics that HR professionals in Pakistan should apply in their daily lives are provided below:
-
Lack of Appreciation:
Appreciation is the key to success, when HR professionals appreciate their employees, it motivates them to achieve higher goals whereas if they lack appreciation and ignore the hard work of their workers it discourages their inner self.
-
Avoiding Conflicts:
This is one of the biggest mistakes that Managers make and it should not be avoided in any case. When you avoid a conflict between your employees it creates hassle in teamwork that directly affects the goal to achieve the targets which results in an overall mishap that also damages the reputation of the workplace in front of partners in business.
-
Demotivation:
Demotivation comes from different sources of aspects managers do not directly Demotivate their employees but sometimes their actions do. For instance: Not reporting the employee’s good behaviour on higher levels or not acknowledging their efforts.
-
Everyone deserves a chance!
As a Human resource professional one must give enough chances to everyone to prove their capabilities on higher levels.
For instance: if there’s a big international award show that requires your employees to prove themselves on a bigger level as HR professionals you must give the chance to the deserving one not the favourite one.
-
Not Teaching New Skills:
As a team manager it’s your responsibility to teach younger new employees new skills that may give you fruitful results in coming times and will also bring more business to the company.
-
No Appropriate Increment:
Every employee must be given their deserving Increments according to company’s policy, and their work should be considered and appreciated. Otherwise, lack of appropriate Increment drives the employee away and creates trust issues between company and employee.
-
Not Giving Credits:
When an employee works well the manager should appreciate them and give them full credit for the hard work they put in. Also, the higher management and partners in business must know about the hardworking employees so the employees feel appreciated overall.
-
Overloading the Work:
Deadlines and work tasks should be set in a way that does not over burdernize a hardworking employee. If you overload the work on a specific person who is good at his work this may result in a tired and sad employee which is not good for a healthy work environment.
-
Exhausting Environment:
Workplace politics create an Exhausting Environment among employees and employees feel demotivated to do their daily tasks. Politics in the workplace can only be controlled by HR professionals if they are committed to their work sincerely.
-
Creating Misunderstandings through Micromanagement:
Often managers perform such acts that do not benefit any instead it creates a chaotic environment among employees.
For instance: giving brief to an employee and when he is done with his work you start pointing things unnecessarily.
