780 - International Human Resource Professionals Day

Today is International Human Resources Day.

There are more than 800,000 Human Resource professionals in the US today.

The amount of information and situations a human resource professional must deal with daily is staggering.

Human resource professionals must wear multiple hats and keep more plates spinning than most businesspeople imagine.

They are proficient in developing and maintaining a positive working environment, delivering employee-valued programs, hiring/firing, and all the employee's medical-related issues and the list goes on.

Laura Winans, CEO and Principal HR Consultant, at Next Level Benefits, says, "HR is the backbone of every organization. HR simultaneously supports employees and the business, making tough calls and providing recommendations that drive the organization forward. HR has a hand in all things people—and isn't that what makes up an organization? No people, no company."

Human Resource Professionals deserve more than a day of recognition.

Reach out today to someone you know in Human Resources and thank them for the work they do.

Happy Human Resource Professionals Day!!
