Human Resource Management (HR) focuses on the
people issues in organizations, and refers to all of the
activities an organization implements and uses to affect the
behaviors of employees. HR activities play a key role in
supporting an organization's ongoing efforts to adapt to change
successfully, and HR professionals are sought by all sizes and
types of organizations. HR activities include
recruitment, selection, training and development, compensation,
benefits, performance appraisal, employee relations, health and
safety, and strategic HR planning. The contributions of
HR professionals make it possible for organizations to attract,
motivate, and retain a qualified and effective work
force. |
