SHRM understands how vital member participation is to advancing the profession. The SHRM Member Advocacy program is designed for HR professionals to participate and influence federal/state public policy and regulatory efforts. As a member advocate for the HR community, it is important that you keep your elected officials informed on how public policy issues can affect employees, employers, and the HR profession as a whole.
SHRM provides its members with several avenues that let their voices be heard. Our Relationship Building Activities with public policymakers include:
- HRVoice - Write Your Elected Official
Day Inside the Beltway (DITB)
Day Inside the District (DITD)
On Wednesday, March 11, 2009, over 270 HR professionals conducted a series of meetings with their legislators and their staffs in Washington during the 2009 HR Advocacy Day. Other relationship building activities with legislators are planned throughout the year.
