human resources staff or expert can increase the
understanding of how important human capital is to the
organization’s bottom line.

duties.

developing methods for trimming workforce management
costs, which includes negotiating better rates for benefits
such as health care coverage.

choice." Employers of choice are the organizations that

qualified applicants, selecting the most suitable
candidates and retaining the most talented employees.

The Importance of HRM► Performance Improvement
HRM develops performance management systems in the
organization, a cornerstone of the management and appraisal of
an employee’s performance is the inculcation of a desire for
continuous improvement.
The ongoing coaching is an integral aspect of performance
management, while performance appraisal is the time period in
which to summarize the overall progress that an employee has
made as a result of being coached, and to agree on the new goals
that should be set.
Without a human resources specialist to construct a plan that
measures performance, employees can wind in jobs that aren't
suitable for their skills and expertise.

The Importance of HRM
►Managing Disputes
In an organization, disputes are almost unavoidable, given the
diversity of personalities, work styles, backgrounds and levels
of experience among employees.
It is the human resource HR department which acts as a
consultant and mediator to sort out those issues in an effective

They first hear the complaints of the employees, then they come
up with suitable solutions to sort them out. In other words, they
take timely action, prevent things from going out of hands and
restore positive working relationships.
