SHRM Public Policy Priorities
SHRM pursues nonpartisan public policy efforts and elevates the voice of HR in discussions on policies affecting the world of work. HR professionals sit at the intersection of work, workers and the workplace, providing SHRM with the unique voice, policy perspective and technical expertise necessary to successfully advocate for major policy issues.
HR professionals and business executives expect SHRM to be a vocal advocate for key labor, employment and safety issues.
SHRM Government Affairs organizes these key workplace issues into six core policy areas:
Modernizing the U.S. immigration system and better enabling the nation to compete globally
Promoting clear, balanced rules and guidance on governance issues to create better workplaces
As the Voice of All Things Work, SHRM pursues nonpartisan public policy efforts to promote flexible, inclusive and equitable workplaces that help employers thrive as talent is tapped, trained and empowered to reach its full potential.
