    Welcome to East Alabama SHRM

    Founded in 1973, the East Alabama Society for Human Resource Management (EASHRM) serves its members through providing professional development opportunities, networking opportunities, and the latest information and research in the field. The chapter is an affiliate of SHRM, the world's largest association devoted to human resource management.

    EASHRM supports the mission of SHRM: Serve the Professional and Advance the profession. EASHRM also plays an instrumental part in influencing legislation on the national and state levels. Along with the Alabama State Council, our organization makes every effort to send a member to Washington, D.C. each year to visit members of Congress, make our voices heard on trends impacting the workplace and bring back information to the local chapter.

    Job Seekers:

    EASHRM members looking for employment, check out our local listings under the Job Postings tab. Also, EASHRM meetings are a great tool for networking so bring your resume and your smile to our membership meetings and workshops. Hope to see you there.
