3. When you think about
Human Resource
What comes to your
mind?
4. Concepts
Human capital plays a vital role in every
organization. Human resource
development is paramount to building a
more robust and effective workforce.
Peterson and Tracy (1981) emphasized
that HRM is an “emerging dynamic field
in terms of both the staff functional and
day-to-day utilization of human
resources throughout the organization”.
HRM is a broad concept from employee
selection, training and development
programs, career development,
promotion, performance review and
union – management interface and
other activities.
5. Human: refers to the skilled workforce in
an organization.
Resource: refers to limited availability or
scarce.
Management: refers how to optimize and
make best use of such limited or scarce
resource so as to meet the organization
goals and objectives.
Therefore, human resource management is meant
for proper utilization of available skilled workforce
and also to make efficient use of existing human
resource in the organization.
Why
6. Human Resource Management is
a multidisciplinary subject
• It includes the study of management,
psychology, communication, economics
and sociology.
• It also deals with building team spirit and
team work.
• It is a continuous process.
7. All organizations need resources of manpower,
money, material, method and machinery to
function effectively. The resources by
themselves cannot fulfill the objectives of the
organization, they need to be collected,
coordinated and utilized through human
resources who in turn are to be managed
effectively and efficiently. Hence human
resource management (HRM) is a major
activity in an organization that deals with
issues related to people.

“Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.” “Efficiency is
concerned with doing things right. Effectiveness is doing the right things Peter Drucker .”
8. We’ve all heard the saying, “It
takes a village to raise a child.”
Likewise, it takes a village – or
at least multiple departments –
to run a business. All your
departments are important, but
human resource management,
or HRM, stands out for its direct
impact on your most important
asset – your team!
9. Human resource management
is the art and science of managing
people. The scope of HRM has
broadened substantially due to an
improved approach towards
behavioral sciences and advances in
training. New trends seem to have
emerged managing the employees
who are known as knowledge
workers. HRM is now an integral
function in today’s corporate world.
11. W. French (1990) refers to HRM as that
which embodies the “philosophy, policies,
procedures, and practices related to the
human relations and human resources
approached within the organization.
Human Resources Approach – It assumes
employees will work realistically for the
accomplishment of the organizational goals
and objectives if individual goals,
objectives, needs and interest are being
met.
Managerial Philosophy
12. Human Relations Approach
• Human relations. It is defined as relations
with or between people, particularly in a
workplace setting. Because an organization
depends on good human relations through its
organizational structure, developing these
skills is important.
• From a personal perspective, human
relations is an important part to our career
success. First, of the top ten reasons people
are fired, several reasons relate back to lack
of human relations skills—for example, the
inability to work within a team, personality
issues, sexual harassment, and dishonesty.
13. The National Institute of Personal
Management (NIPM) has defined HRM as
‘that part of management which is
concerned with people at work and with
their relationship within an enterprise. Its
aim is to bring together and develop into
an effective organization of the men and
women who make up enterprise and
having regard for the well – being of the
individuals and of working groups, to
enable them to make their best
contribution to its success’.
14. • With the advancements in technology, businesses expect more from HR professionals.
Aside from managing HR processes, they now need to track activities and productivity to
improve the processes.
• HR technology provides tools that managers need to make better decisions. Here are
other ways that technology transforms the field of human resource management.
15. What are the technological
changes taking place in your
agency?
Are the system and procedures
computerized?
How are these changes affecting
the operations and personnel
function within your
organization?
Has the service delivery improve
as a result of computerization of
system and procedures?
Has there been a reduction in the
number of personnel involved in
the delivery of service?
Reflection
16. Carrell, Elbert and Hatfield put a number of principles
which provide the basis for a HR approach.
1. Employees are investment. If effectively managed and
developed, they will provide long term rewards to the
organization in the form of greater productivity.
2. Policies, programs and practices must satisfy both the
economic and emotional needs of employees.
3. A working environment must be created in which
employees are encouraged to develop and utilize their
skills to the maxim extent.
4. Implementation of the HR programs and practices must
meet the goal of balancing the needs and meeting the
goals of both the organization and employees

25. Difference between Personnel Management and Human Resource
Management
Personnel management is the seed and root for Human
resources management. Main principle of the Personnel
Management was to extract work from an employee for
the remuneration paid to them.
• Not given high priority in decision making process and
weren't much allowed to interact with management.
Personal manager was to see that everything was in
compliance with the labor laws or not but not much
emphasis made on the morale of employees.
• Employees were just treated as tools, obligation to the
organization but not as the asset of the organization,
besides they were seen as cost & expenditure to
company rather than capital and investment.
• Personnel officers mostly were disciplinary oriented
instead of being flexible and interactive with employees.
• Nurturing of employees was not priority by the personnel
managers and employees perspective was ignored
which means personnel managers rather than
understanding situation they used to be punitive if any
error was committed by employee.
Human resource management see employees
from the perspective as a most valuable resources
for the organization and they consider their
employees as assets and capital for their
organization. Main principle of the Human
resource management is to see what should
be given or provided to an employee for
extracting the desired work.
• HR Managers always encourage participation
of employees in decision making and their
suggestions are most valued.
• Flexibility in work, welfare and Work life
balance to employees is high priority for HR
managers and they show much more concern
towards employee issues.
• Adoption of new policies and optimization
methods by the HR manager are well
encouraged and swift. resources management
