Department
People
Exists when hiring, training, retention, and workforce management become a full-time concern. In trades, this department is real when turnover costs are measurable, when recruiting competes with every other company for the same technicians, and when the company is large enough that culture does not happen organically anymore. Before this exists, the owner or office manager handles hiring between other responsibilities.
