HR?

From Susan Quick

Having read an entry to the Discussion Forum with regard to books available in our library there is frequent reference to HR. What does this mean? Heben Royd? Sorry I can't make sense of it. I am an experienced editor of educational materials for speakers of other languages. I have an MA in Applied Linguistics.

It means Human Resources. A horrible, depersonalising expression. I think it used to be called Personnel Management or some such.

Within the context of the posts I believe "HR" stands for "Human Rights".
