Happy New Year to you, your family and your staff.  The other day I was thinking about my personal resolutions and then started to think about what resolutions would be for HR departments.  If you don’t have any resolutions for your department why not?  Is your department that perfect?  I highly doubt it.  What I suggest you do is sit down with your staff and seriously brain storm resolutions for the department as a whole and then have them pick a resolution for themselves, career wise.  This will help you out tramendously in getting your new year off on the right foot.  Here are some New Years HR Resolution ideas:

1.  Improve employee relations efficiency by 30%

2.  Develop an Employee Volunteer Program

3.  Survey the corporate atmosphere

4. Prepare for HealthCare reform by implementing a employee wellness program

5.  Reduce company turnover by 50%

These are just a few HR Resolutions that will help you jump start your HR Department for a successful 2010.
