HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT

Introduction:
Human resource departments exist to help people and organizations reach their goals. Along the way, they face many challenges arising from the demands of the employees, the organization, and society. The domestic and international environments are particularly confuses because of the growing diversity of the workforce and the globalization of businesses. Challenges also result from ever changing laws, especially laws that address the need for equal employment opportunity.

THE PURPOSE OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT:

The purpose of human resource management is to improve the productive contribution of people to the organization in ways that are strategically, ethically, and socially responsible. This purpose guides the study and practice of HR management, which is also commonly called personnel management. The study of HR management describes the HR related efforts of operating managers and shows how personnel professionals contribute to those efforts. Human resources determine every organization's success. Improving the human contribution is so ambitious and important, however, that all but the smallest firms create a specialized personnel or HR department. It is ambitious because HR departments do not control many of the factors that shape the employees' contribution, such as capital, materials, and procedures. The department decides neither strategy nor a supervisor's treatment of employees, although it strongly influences both. Simply put, the HR department exists to support managers and employees as they pursue the organization's strategies. However, to guide its many activities and support the managers who operate other parts of the organization, HR departments must have objectives. Organizational Objective:

To recognize that HR management exists to contribute to organizational effectiveness. Even when a formal HR department is created to help managers, the managers remain responsible for employee performance. The HR department exists to help managers achieve the objectives of the organization. HR management is not an end in itself; it is only a means of assisting managers with their human resource issues Functional Objective

To maintain the department's contribution at a level appropriate to the organization's needs. Resources are wasted when HR management is more or less sophisticated than the organization demands. Realizing that the HR department had grown up too large. Recruitment is the process of searching for prospective employees and stimulating them to apply for jobs in the organization.
