The Human Resources Management (HRM) function includes a variety of activities, and key among them is deciding what staffing needs we have and whether to use independent contractors or hire employees to fill these needs, recruiting and training the best employees, ensuring they are high performers, dealing with performance issues, and ensuring our human resource and management practices conform to the regulations of our country. Besides hiring the right people to manage and perform specific jobs, as a company we aim to build up commitment and loyalty among the workforce by keeping our employees up to date about company plans, and ensuring that they are part of any change management process to ensure smooth transition and participation. Our activities also include managing our approach to employee benefits and compensation, employee records and policies. These policies are in the form of employee manuals, which all employees have and are made aware of. At Cox and Company Limited we recognize that the backbone of any successful company is its PEOPLE.
