Human Resources

Agents run the employee lifecycle. Humans make employment decisions.

Autonomy0% / 78%

Phase: Phase 3 — Functional orchestration

Run hire-to-retire as one coordinated work graph: requisition administration, scheduling, onboarding, policy service and records are agent work; selection, compensation, performance and termination remain human.

How a unit moves: the conductor, the five desks, the agents, and the people

Flow of work

How work actually moves through Human Resources

Work enters on the left. HR Chief of Staff routes it to one of five desks. A named agent does the work. It leaves as cleared, as evidence posted, or as a hold for a person. Every packet you see below is weighted by the real distribution of 194 live units.

HR Chief of Staff and the desks reporting to it

Each packet is a unit of work. Desk weighting and the outcome mix are taken from the 194 units live in this function.

The five desks

What HR Chief of Staff is actually conducting

Each desk is a layer of the operating model, not a team. The conductor decides which desk owns a unit, then which agent on that desk picks it up.

Human lanes

Where the conductor stops and asks a person

The conductor does not decide everything. Materiality routes a unit to a named human role, and the clock keeps running while it waits.

Walk one unit

Follow the single piece of work with the most at stake

Diagrams argue. A unit proves. Step through the actual route this unit is taking, station by station, and read the evidence written at each action.

What this view is and is not

Every count, agent, station, gate and unit on this page is read from the live records for Human Resources. The moving packets in the diagram are a visual weighting of that same distribution, not a live message bus: they show where volume goes, not individual transactions in real time. The human lanes are the routing rule, not a staffing model. Chief Human Resources Officer remains accountable for this function whatever the conductor clears.
