Another term for 'HR'

Rebecca

Hi Community, 

I have been thinking lately on a new & updated term for 'HR'. I see a lot of companies are now referring HR as 'People & Culture'. Just seeing if anyone has any other ideas? I currently work part-time for a distribution company who are highly innovative and the term 'HR' just doesn't suit the business. I also need to take into consideration when I talk about the term people & culture, I always need to explain it is in fact HR, so people understand what the function is. Interested to hear your feedback!

Thanks

  • I know I'm being particularly radical with this suggestion, but here goes anyway:

    How about 'Personnel'? ;-)

    Seriously, why doesn't the term Human Resources fit the business? Especially as everyone knows what that means. Is it because they don't like referring to employees as a resource?

    I've never been totally clear on what is really meant by 'culture' so how about People Operations?
