Employee relationship management

Employee Relationship Management (ERM)[1] deals with how people in a company get along with each other. It's a part of Human Resource Management, focusing on using methods to control how employees relate to each other. The main goal is to build and maintain positive connections among employees.

A key part of ERM is making sure communication in the company works well. This helps boost employee confidence, trust, and loyalty. By managing relationships effectively, a company can figure out if it's meeting its goals.

ERM also aims to get employees and employers working together on everyday tasks. The idea is to gather input from both sides, making sure everyone's interests align. This way, business operations can run more smoothly every day.
