What are your current biggest challenges, HR community?

Hi HR community,

I'm doing a research project on the biggest HR challenges this moment in time. What are these for you? What kind of resources would you find useful? What kind of materials would help with your work? 

Thanks so much for your help in advance.

  • Right now it's the end of the furlough scheme next month.We have a number of staff returning and we're struggling to find work for them but we don't want to lose them via redundancy processes (if we can avoid it) because when work inevitably picks up again we will struggle to replace them.We're trying to juggle retaining as many staff as possible to meet future needs whilst balancing a very quiet/low workload across the board.
  • Gemma, two ways to occupy people that you may want to consider are

    1) training, if budgets allow it, and
    2) reviewing and improving procedures to make them more efficient
