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

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 for this post.. yes it has been a struggle and the work pressure is just building up. We were recently acquired and the pressure is so much on integration now together with the whole pandemic. I feel I do so much more work but the pressure is still building and i sometimes feel stressed.

    Prior to this I have not used the CIPD community facility before and its good to know that we have a community to turn too and learn from your experiences. Thank you.
