Leadership | Quarter of HR excluded from Boardroom decisions

Despite the importance of HR departments, it seems HR professionals are being left out of strategic Boardroom meetings.

This news comes after research released by HR recruitment specialist Reed HR, discovered that one in four HR professionals are not involved in key strategic business decisions.

This has proven to be a concern as respondents revealed that the HR sector is also going through major changes; four in five agreed that changing demands for employee benefits has impacted the responsibilities of the HR professional.  

“I think it’s crucial how the Board of a company see HR. The fact one in four still don’t feel included in key decisions is definitely too high a number."
