It has long been recognized that HR practitioners have the influence to positively impact the lives of your employees as well as those of the people in your communities. To assist you and your organization in your goal to touch the lives of those around you in unique ways, SHRM's Knowledge Center has compiled the Going Beyond HR calendar. In choosing which events to include, we decided to focus on four areas: employee relations, health & safety, diversity, and community relations. Where possible and appropriate, we've included contact information for you to learn more about getting involved in these events.
