Three Human Resource Management Tips for Nonprofits

Here’s an exerpt from my Nonprofit Operations Toolkit about three Human Resource steps I take in my nonprofit.

1. I keep the organizational personnel manual in compliance with state employment law.

2. I created procedures for hiring new employees, an orientation and training manual for new employees, and a step-by-step procedure for training those new employees.

3. I keep employment records up to date and created a procedure for the standard way information is stored in the employment files.

The items I track in the employment records include: employee attendance, disciplinary warnings, vacation requests, employment hiring forms, and benefit enrollment forms. 

This information comes in handy if an employee dispute arises or if I am called before the local Unemployment Insurance Board for a hearing.

HR in NGOs

I have carried out my PhD on NGOs and I have found that NGOs should have very good organisational culture and HR executives should pay special attention to developing organisational culture. Particularly, HR executives should try to develop a culture based on trust, authenticity, collaboration and mutual respect. Development of organisational culture should be the prime role of top management and HR executive and they should give it a priority. There should be special emphasis on encouraging employees to bring creative and innovative ideas.
