HR has traditionally been considered the least important department in any organization; however, the pandemic has forced all organizations to take a relook at their HR practices. Companies are now heavily relying on their HR department to ensure a smooth transition to remote work, and also be prepared for the challenges it brings with it. This is a great opportunity for the re-birth of the HR function.

Keeping in mind the indispensable role of HR for growth and sustainability in the current scenario, hrtech.sg organized a webinar titled “HR Megatrends for 2021: The Three Gamechangers”. The webinar was based on the HR Megatrends report published by Ultimate Kronos Group (UKG) and the relevance of the findings & trends HR leaders are observing as we enter 2021.

The webinar covered the following questions: 

• Why is HR always begging for a seat at the table? 
• How do you ensure teams have a smooth digital transition? 
• How can organizations proactively partake in the digital adaptation?
