INTRODUCTION

DEFINITION OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT:

According to D.Yoder and othersIt is the phase of management which deals with the effective control and use of manpower as distinguished from

other sources of power.

The management of human resource is viewed as a system in which participants seek to attain both individual and

group goals.

Its objective is to understand what has happened and is happening and to be prepared for what will happen in thearea of the working relationships between the managers and the managed.

HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT: AN OVERVIEWHRM may be defined as the organized function of planning for human resource need and recruitment, selection,

development, compensation and evaluation of performances to fill those needs. The HRM process is an ongoing

function that aims to keep the organization supplied with the right person, in the right position, in the right time.The HRM process includes 5 basic activities:

Human resource planning.Staffing.

Training and development.

Performance appraisal.

Compensation.

Human resource activities like selection, promotion and placement come into focus when there is high demand forthe supply of man power in the organization. Consecutively, efforts are made to match the available man power

with organizations needs. When the supply of human resource is low and the demand is high, a different emphasisis required.

The company can go in for internal promotions and should place special emphasis on training and development to

enlarge and improve the internal pool of man power. However, this takes time and planning. Recruitment is another

option. When there is high demand for man power within the enterprise, it is likely that there is high demand for

such man power in external environment as well.Therefore, it is essential that the compensation offered be competitive. This is very important for retaining

individuals already employed by the enterprise, and also for recruiting new man power.

Managers are responsible for optimizing of the resource available to them like material, capital and human when itcomes to managing people, however, all managers must be concerned to some degree with the following 5

activities:

Staffing.

Retention.

Development.

Adjustment.

Managing change.

However these activities can be carried out by the individuals, work team, or large organizational unit level.

Sometimes they are initiated by the organization and sometimes they are initiated by the individuals or work team,

whatever the case, the responsibilities for carrying out these activities are highly inter related. Together these

activities constitute the HRM system.

OBJECTIVES OF HUMAN RESOURCE:

The objective of human resource is to maximize the return on investment from the organization human capital and

minimize financial risk. It is the responsibility of human resource manager to conduct these activities in an

effective, legal, fair and consistence manner. HRM serves these key functions:
