Competitive Challenges
Influencing Human Resource
Management
Three competitive challenges that
companies now face will increase the importance
of Human Resources Management practices:
• The Challenge of Sustainability
• The Global Challenge
• The Technology Challenge

Management
The Challenge of Sustainability
Sustainability refers to the ability of a
company to survive and succeed in a dynamic
competitive environment.
• A learning organization embraces a culture of
lifelong learning, enabling all employees to
continually acquire and share knowledge.

• The psychological contract describes what an
employee expects to contribute and what the
company will provide to the employee for these
contributions.
• Alternative work arrangements include
independent contractors, on-call workers,
temporary workers and contract company
workers.

HRM practices that help deal with the
competitive challenges can be grouped into four
(4) dimensions:
• The human resource environment
• Acquiring and preparing human resources
• Assessment and development of human
resources
• Compensating human resources

factors allows employees to make greatest
possible contribution to company’s productivity
and competitiveness.

services influence the number and type of
employees businesses need to be successful.

Assessment and Development of Human
Resources
Human resources management practices
both of managers and the human resource
function must be aligned and contribute to the
companies strategic goals.

Compensating Human Resources
Besides interesting work, pay and benefits
are the most important incentives that companies
can offer employees in exchange for contributing
to productivity, quality and customer service.
