Reading and Searching for information on best practice of Human Resource Management and Human Rights

After researching on Human Resource Management best practice I have appreciated Labour Market flexibility where workers are allowed to have the option of working remotely without their physical presence.

Additionally, I have learnt streamlining core HR tasks, the kind that used to take all day, can now be managed with a few clicks with evolution of Information CommunicationTechnology, paperwork can be automated through an intuitive way of managing docs and workflows. Request docs and signatures from employees with a few clicks-and without having to tap them on the shoulder.

Manage benefits packages for employees transparently and with ease. Streamlined features and easy-to-use interface will help you manage once complicated processes easily.

Produce actionable insights and share KPIs so HR can get a seat at the table.

1. To strengthen human rights and respect for fundamental freedoms.

2. To value human dignity and develop individual self respect for others.

3. To develop attitudes and behaviors that will lead to the respect for the right of others.

4. To ensure genuine gender equality and equal opportunities for women and men in all spheres.

5. To promote respect, understanding and appreciation of diversity, particularly towards different nationals, ethnic, religious, linguistic and other minorities and communities.

6. To empower people towards more active citizenship.

7. To promote democracy, development, social justice, communal harmony, solidarity and friendship among people.

8. To further activities and create the awareness of the commission.

9. To promote the learning and practice of human rights within schools, through the establishment of human rights club.

10. To enable the Commission to use best practice in curbing corruption and administrative lapses.

11. To sensitize public servants to work conscientiously and remove red tapeism in the cause of their work
