Primarily, ensures the employees follow the policies and procedures…
I am assumimg you have these, right?!?
I am pretty sure if employee A said employee B had a condition, without employee A’s consent, you would need to act, right?
that is Scrotie in here.
Thanks.
Just an FYI, stating that others may have a mental condition can be interpreted as an insult. A direct violation of the CoC. That is OBJECTIVE!
You claiming you made the comment “in jest” doesnt make it any less so.
I’d say they manage a store.
Are you really wanting to devote your time to arguing whether people managers manage people. Seriously. For what purpose?
Of course we have policies and procedures. They apply inside the workplace and their purpose is (amongst other things) to give staff a safe environment to work in.
I have no interest in denigrating you mate, like I said I’m sure you’re a decent human. Now I’ve listened to you, and given you my thoughts, and I appreciate that you think this is some sort of battle but I don’t. Please have a good day and do something productive 
And their primary role is to ensure employees follow the rules.
You are just as dedicated to this as I am, apparently, so yes.
People managers is HR, period.
Store managers might manage the store, and the staff within it, but they are not people managers - thats HR.
HR is the department that ACTUALLY manages people.
Yep, agreed. I very much doubt if I worked under you it would be considered a “safe environment” if I said Jenny on 5 has tortures kittens and has < insert condition >, and then repeated that with regularity.
I cant reciprocate those feels. You are defending harassment because you happen to agree with the person doing the harassment.
Thats fine, I will defend to the death your right to be a jerk…
Just dont go searching for excuses to defend being a jerk!
You’re really showing your lack of experience here. Are you in Melbourne any time soon? I’ll buy you lunch.
Anything can be interpreted as an insult, you chicken-eating forum-dweller.
Project manager in construction for 20 years.
I have more experience than you.
Another insult you will "pass off " as just a joke, right?!?
Sorry, that is an insult.
Why? Because of the context it was used in.
Maybe, just maybe, realise that your intent is not equal to how it is interpreted by the recipient.
Almost, I’m 48 and my first PM role was at 25.
Construction might be structured a little differently. In the industries I work with project teams usually report into project managers, who report into portfolio leads, into heads of, into general managers, into MD, into either a local or global CEO. Sometimes in a larger organisation the teams are structured into practices. An analyst might report into a practice for meta related things like payroll, ongoing development, and into a project manager for day to day. The project managers are then responsible for managing work and wellbeing within the context of the project.
Lately there’s been a trend towards flatter hierarchies that resemble the practice model.
HR is often offshored and actions requests. They don’t get involved in any people management, but from time to time may be consulted on specific issues.
Personally I keep a flat structure where possible as I don’t like hierarchies. Everyone can lead.
I love hierarchies. But my experience in management was that employees don’t, and having happy employees overrode my hierarchy preferences.
The predictions can be deceptive as starting off with a low roll in the combat has a cumulative effect for the rest of the combat and the chances for an individual worst roll possible is never under ~14%. If you hit that on your first roll that has your chances for the overall wn change dramatically. That makes it appear like these low % losses happen more often than they really do. It takes more just getting that first low roll usually to low % to happen but each low roll opens that crack wider and wider and any individual low roll is neer lower than 1 in 7 and it only gets worse as the combat goes on and the number of targets reduce.
I should have brought a popcorn.
They do own the rights to the Zerg (but they stole the concept from WH40k, who probably stole it from Heinlein), so you might be wrong.
