Quality of CIPD online discussions

Amanda Claire Baldwin

This is my first foray into the mist of CIPD online discussions and I have to admit to being a bit disappointed with the quality of some discussion for debate. 

Not to say that the items listed are not relevant but I think it would be better to have an 'advice section' for those individuals who have simple questions about practice to be answered? 

Then the space for discussions can be recogised and valued more as one where real debate will occur.

  • on this "topic of conversation" which i have found very interesting I have to say that I do read these discussions regularly and whilst I will be honest and do not contribute to them very often on several occasions these have helped me out on some tricky situations.


    In my experience HR is a very complex and demanding area, we not only have to deal with the legal aspects but we are also counsellers, welfare officers, marriage guidance and beareavment advisors and so on and sometimes we need to look outside the box so to speak.  I have the welfare of 300 staff to think about - if they are unable to do the job they are employed to do then the company fails and we loose money so to speak.


    I am one of the guilty ones that do not write on these postings but find them invaluable all the time.  If it appears that areas are repeated then so be it - I still learn from them and there are always unique situations.


    I will change now and start writing and to everyone please keep up the good work and thank you
