1 hr confidence: peer agreement (net): +1
peer agreement (net): +1HR / P&O Explanation: Please note that you should give some thought to the company for which the translation is intended. Big multinationals (including Dutch companies that expanded internationally) sometimes tend to prefer HR, also using 'business unit', 'management board' etc. Have you tried the company's web site, if there is one? On the other hand, P&O is more neutral, since it also stands for Personnel & Organisation in English and therefore could go either way. HTH |
