Yasmin.Taj @timesgroup.com T here are no doubts about the fact that 2016 has been a year of some path-breaking events and sharp twists and turns. The year has been productive and has also seen some downfalls. But as they say, all is well that ends well, and it is time to bid farewell to 2016. Here is a look at the top HR trends that redefined the people management function in 2016, enlisted by some experts in the field. Summing up the year that is ending, Adarsh Mishra, CHRO Panasonic India, expresses, "The year 2016 has been productive from an HR perspective as the business climate within the industry has increased considerably. With the implementation of the 7th pay commission and a good monsoon season, we have seen the business ecosystem really expand wholesomely this year. This, in turn, augmented the recruitment process as well in the industry which also saw an increase in lateral hiring. Generally, consumer electronic companies elevate people internally to fill out the vacant positions across divisions, but with the growing competition in the market and expanding capabilities of doing business, lateral hiring was seen in full flow in 2016. Naresh Sharma, managing partner, Antal International India shares his views on the growth trajectory of various industries in 2016, "India's logistics and supply chain industry is witnessing a rapid growth in both, B2C and B2B domains. In the past year, we saw lots of e- commerce players getting their business on the growth trajectory and we have seen an increase in demand of professionals in supply chain functions. Though the sentiments in the e- commerce industry in the second half of 2016 saw a major downturn with hiring freeze by giants, there was a steady requirement by other players in the domain. Government's ‘Make in India’ programme also is boosting sentiments in the industry and we have seen a positive traction in manufacturing including automotive. The retail sector has also seen demand picking up leading to enhanced activities in the manufacturing and distribution space." According to Thammaiah BN, managing director, Kelly Services India, start-ups that were the poster boys of recruitment in the past year went easy on volume hiring, particularly in the ecommerce sector. Most of the start-ups invested in hiring sales and marketing talent. "IT companies embraced automation in fullest measure possible this year leading to lower hiring particularly at the bottom of the pyramid. However, we are seeing continued significant demand from IT due to high levels of attrition (2 to 8 years work experience). The fall in oil prices meant banks put a squeeze on hiring. Pharma sector continued to be recession proof devoid of any impact. Traditional consumer and FMCG companies saw some talent moving to online retail."
