What are you talking about?

The people who do the list of tasks you described are literally the HR team.

Regardless of what you call that group of people; that’s your HR team.

Admin team also handles general administrative tasks within our company - arranging supplies, managing access to resources, liaising with cantonal bodies, etc. i.e. they perform those one-off HR tasks in addition to administrative tasks that are done regularly. It's not an actively separate team within our organization like Compliance is.

So? You can do whatever internal structure you want. Who cares.

You still have to do the same job, just now with team who is less qualified to do that. But if you guys are all happy about that, you do you.

A truck might be more efficient for carrying a lot of things but I don't need a truck to take me to the grocery store downtown.

That’s what’s being discussed though… Dedicated hr teams, people ops, whatever other structure. The basic hr tasks still need to be done but how is what is being discussed.
