The main function of a human resources department is to:

  1. Facilitate communication between the employer and the employees

  2. Maximize employee productivity while minimizing pay

  3. Meet the company's recruiting goals

  4. Prevent lawsuits

The correct answer is: Facilitate communication between the employer and the employees

The purpose of a human resources department is to act as a liaison between the employer and employees. This includes facilitating communication, resolving conflicts, and ensuring that employees are properly informed about company policies and procedures. While maximizing employee productivity and preventing lawsuits may be important tasks for the department, they are not the primary function. Meeting recruiting goals may also be a responsibility of the HR department, but it is not the main purpose. Therefore, options B, C, and D are incorrect.
