Some experts assert that there is no difference

For those who recognize a difference between
personnel management and human resources,
the difference can be described as
philosophical.

10. Definition
 Personnel Management - Personnel Management is basically
an administrative record-keeping function, at the operational
level. Personnel Management attempts to maintain fair terms
and conditions of employment, while at the same time,
efficiently managing personnel activities for individual
departments etc. It is assumed that the outcomes from
providing justice and achieving efficiency in the management of
personnel activities will result ultimately in achieving
organizational success.
 Human Resource Development - Human resource
management is concerned with the development and
implementation of people strategies, which are integrated with
corporate strategies, and ensures that the culture, values and
structure of the organization, and the quality, motivation and
commitment of its members contribute fully to the achievement
of its goals.

11. Main Differences between
Personnel Management and HRM
 Personnel management is workforce centered, directed mainly at the
organization’s employees; such as finding and training them, arranging
for them to be paid, explaining management’s expectations, justifying
management’s actions etc. While on the other hand, HRM is resource
–centered, directed mainly at management, in terms of devolving the
responsibility of HRM to line management, management development
etc.
 Personnel Management is basically an operational function,
concerned primarily with carrying out the day-to day people
management activities. While on the other hand, HRM is strategic in
nature, that is, being concerned with directly assisting an organization
to gain sustained competitive advantage.
 HRM is more proactive than Personnel Management. Whereas
personnel management is about the maintenance of personnel and
administrative systems,
 HRM is about the forecasting of organizational needs, the continual
monitoring and adjustment of personnel systems to meet current and
future requirements, and the management of change.

12. HUMAN RESOURCE DEVELOPMENT
“ Human resource development refers to the process
whereby the employees are continuously helped in a
planned way to
 Acquire or sharpen capabilities required to perform various tasks
associated with their present/future expected roles.
 Develop their general capabilities as individuals so that they are able
to discover and exploit their own inner potential for their own and/or
organizational development purpose.
 Develop an organizational work culture where: superior-subordinate
relationships, team work and collaboration among different units are
strong and contribute to the professional well-being, motivation and
pride.”
