Are any other HR people feeling a bit lonely in all this :(

Samantha

Hi

Sorry its a self indulgent one.

Just wondering if anyone else is feeling a bit lonely?  I have streams of people coming in to my office concerned about it and asking what our plans are for WFH and sickness and about 101 other queries and being openly worried and I have to sit here and be the cabin crew and exude calmness.  Yet I am just as concerned as everyone else.

Managers and Directors etc look to us for calm, measured guidance and practical advice, and being so close to the 'inner circle' and hearing first hand the impact on the business etc.....very worrying, I'm feeling a bit forgotten about and just wondered if anyone else is feeling the same?  It just feels like sometimes people forget that we count as employees too?

  • Thank you to Samantha for starting this thread. I was feeling very despairing in March/April time and it was a huge comfort to read this thread. Prior to this I have not used the CIPD community facility before but not knowing where else to turn I came here and found a wonderful community who made me feel reassured.

    There are still challenges (and more to come!) but I do feel as though things are getting better. I hope my colleagues in this community are starting to feel the same and I would be happy to chat to anyone who is struggling.
