- Productivity will go up, increasing shareholder value
- Innovation would happen more frequently, increasing shareholder value
- Employees will know their value to WF and vice versa (to bolster the next point)

A healthy HR department is an absolute win-win for the company and the employee.
It is incredibly myopic that HR is treated by execs with the same disdain as one might think a Liberal Arts degree is worth in the real world.
