It articulates <strong>what you do for your customers and your goals, values, and ethics as an organization.<\/strong> Put simply, it\u2019s all about what you do, how you do it, and why you do it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A human resources mission statement is very much focused on <strong>the present, not the future<\/strong>. It creates a framework for your goals and established how what you do every day will help you achieve them. It also inspires your HR team to consider whether each task they perform aligns with the goals of the department and the organization as a whole.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The other biggest benefit of an inspiring HR mission statement is that it <strong>serves as a frame of reference for the <\/strong><\/span><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/blog\/company-policies-and-procedures\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">policies and procedures<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong> you use to recruit candidates.<\/strong> It sends a clear message about your hiring practices and who you are as a company. This helps you attract candidates who will be a good fit for your organization and whose goals, values, and vision align with your own. This helps reduce turnover and increase retention levels. It also boosts employee motivation and satisfaction levels, helping you create an environment where every individual thrives.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>HR Mission Statement Examples<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The structure, length, and content of your HR mission statement depend very much on who you are as a company. If you search online, you\u2019ll find <strong>a wide variety of HR mission statement samples at both ends of the scale.<\/strong> Some organizations opt for a detailed HR mission statement, others prefer to keep their statement brief and to the point.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s start by taking a look at a few HR mission statement examples to give you an idea of what works well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Adobe<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Adobe, we believe that when people feel respected and included they can be more creative, innovative, and successful.

It also outlines a clear plan for the future.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>AXA<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You are valued.

AXA uses a lot of positive, reassuring language that makes the reader feel comfortable and helps them understand how the company intends to continue improving on its policy of inclusion and diversity in the workplace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Sony<\/b><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201c<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To be a company that inspires and fulfills your curiosity<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This statement is smart and concise. It focuses on a characteristic that everyone can relate to &#8211; curiosity. It is also open to interpretation and leaves the reader wondering where the company will go next.

And what is your value proposition as an employer?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Make sure you address all these questions when you write your HR mission statement. Explain what you do and define your goals and core values as simply as possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Establish How Your Define Success<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next step is establishing how you define success.

What value does your department provide the company and the wider community? How do you strive to improve quality and productivity? Ultimately, what strategies do you use to continuously improve and reach your goals?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Share and Regularly Review<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you\u2019ve created your HR mission statement, you need to make sure everyone sees it. That means communicating it to all your employees, not just your HR department. You can do this by posting the statement on your website and social media pages, as well as including it in your <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/factorialhr.com\/templates\/employee-handbook-template\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">employee handbook<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You also need to make sure any potential candidates see your HR mission statement. Include it in job advertisements, mention it during interviews, and reiterate it during hiring, onboarding, and training. This will help you attract and retain the right talent to help your business succeed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>A People-First Solution to Match Your HR Values and Mission<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have defined and communicated your HR mission statement to the world, y<strong>ou need to make sure you regularly measure and adjust your goals.<\/strong> This will help you stay aligned with your mission as a department and the overall goals of your company.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are a number of strategies you can use to achieve this.

This helps you ensure that your employees understand your core mission as a department. It also helps you establish if they take this mission into account as they perform their daily duties.
