He may think he doesn't have an 'HR department', but whoever holds the pen on his holiday policy, equipment policy, training & development policy, maternity & family friendly rights policy, expenses policy - well, there's his HR department.

Not having an HR department doesn't mean you don't have HR and no one is claiming that. The entire point is that you don't need a department to do those things and the argument presented here is that those responsibilities are left integrated within a team rather than compartmentalized into a separate and independent system.

His managers handle that for their own employees.

That sounds like a lawsuit waiting to happen. All it takes is one bonehead. Not even a bonehead really, I don't want to try to maintain any semblance of technical acumen in my role and take care of the folks that I support and know all the intricacies of labor-related laws and standards.
