Human resources management involves attracting, selecting, orienting, training, developing, and evaluating an organization's most important resource - its employees. It includes critical functions like creating job descriptions and specifications, advertising positions, handling payroll and benefits, and ensuring compliance with local laws. The human resources manager acts as a social counselor, arbitrator, mediator, contact person, negotiator, teacher, and lawyer. They must understand different cultures and integrate personnel strategies with the economic goals of the organization, while drawing on knowledge of administration, law, psychology, pedagogy, and social issues. Trends in human resources management include becoming more marketing-oriented to attract and retain top talent, using the internet for postings and email for applications
