HR : Staff ratios

marcus

We're instituting a new productivity monitoring system, and I'm trying to find current data on HR dept. staffing ratios. Most of everything I've seen is based on HR staff per 100 employees, with healthcare being somewhat lower. Do you know of anything different? Do these ratios include employee training professionals?

One of the best documents on this subject is the BNA Bulletin to Management - HR Resource Activities, Budgets and Staffs which is published annually and one receives as part of membership in SHRM. While you have to hunt for information about training it is clear that training professionals are included in their sample of HR departments. The BNA survey supports your opinion of 1.0 per 100 employees.
