Human resource management (HRM) involves managing employees to maximize their performance and contribution to an organization's strategic objectives. HR departments handle activities like recruitment, training, performance reviews, and determining pay and benefits. HR also considers industrial relations and ensures organizational practices comply with laws and collective bargaining agreements. The functions of HRM include planning how to achieve goals with people, organizing job roles and relationships, directing efforts, coordinating work, controlling performance, and operative functions like hiring, placement, training, motivation, and compensation of employees.
