- Manage performance management and compensation programs, including job evaluations, salary administration, and reviews.
- Provide guidance to managers and employees on policies, conflict resolution, and employee relations; lead investigations and recommend resolution strategies.
- Stay current on HR trends, best practices, regulatory changes, and new technologies; apply insights to strengthen policies, practices, and business readiness.
- Leverage HR technology and HRIS (e.g., SuccessFactors) to optimize processes, reporting, and decision-making.
- Support workplace health and safety programs and actively participate in safety initiatives.
- Manage HR documentation, budgets, and charitable contributions with fiscal responsibility and alignment to company values.
- Represent the company in community relations, employee activities, and engagement initiatives.
- Ensure compliance with employment laws, corporate governance standards, and the ASSA ABLOY Code of Conduct.
