Unfortunately the latter are in the minority, not due to cost but a lack of "understanding " of the science that HR is. I WOULD HOPE THAT OUR CORPORATE EXPERIENCES OVER THE LAST 18 MONTHS HAS PUSHED US A STEP CLOSER TO US ALL ACCEPTING THE "MANAGEMENT" MODEL RATHER THAN THE "REQUIREMENTS" I was retrenched in April last year in the middle of a program that was applied over twelve months involving more than 200 retrenchments; it was excruciating ! In the last month of that 12 month campaign...they retrenched the HR Staff !

These points should even be considered under a positive spotlight during the daily processes!
