HR can outsource these days. So quite redundant . All company I joined , HR dept does not have 1 important thing which is "Innovation" . Most of them only do repetitive work. Filing, filing and filing, then go imigresen to do visa for expats. I have never seen someone who can innovate to automate these repetitive work , using computerize system link to government agencies or someone to even propose it. A lot of companies have HR helpdesk these days, but none have implemented a computerized kiosk with all common FAQ so that it can be automated instead of a human answering the same question over and over again. Like what is my employee benefit ? How do I bring my spouse over from another country since I'm an expat ?

Occupational Health Safety dept to me is the most useless to me but not in the list. So I vote HR.
