My employer does not want to hire an in-house HR person because they say the person wouldn't have enough work to do for our small company.

My employer does not want to hire an in-house HR person because they say the person wouldn't have enough work to do for our small company. False narrative 100%, an HR person can be cross-trained to do other tasks as well!

I think it's because they KNOW they violate so many rules regarding employee complaints, fair pay, not every dept does employee evaluations unless they want to give that certain employee a pay raise...by not having an HR person it allows them complete control without oversight. I say run now, as the turn-over has been quite high for years.

Comments appreciated.
