3. Training and Development:
   • HR coordinates training programs to enhance employees’ skills and knowledge. This includes workshops, seminars, and online courses.
4. Performance Management:
   • HR oversees performance evaluations, feedback, and goal-setting. They work with managers to ensure employees meet their objectives.
5. Employee Relations:
   • HR mediates conflicts, addresses grievances, and fosters positive relationships among employees.
6. Compliance and Legal Matters:
