What is human resource management?

The effective use of people to achieve both organizational and individual goals

The effective recruitment, selection, development, compensation, and utilization of human resources by organizations

The Harvard interpretation sees employees as resources. They are fundamentally different from other resources - they cannot be managed in the same way. The stress is on people as human resources.

Why care about HRM?

Impact on you as employees Impact on you as managers Potential future roles as HR professionals Impact of HRM on organizations

HRM has increased in importance since the 1980s. Why?

People determine the success and failure of organizations and projects.

Globalization Government regulation Stronger knowledge/research base Changing role for labor unions Challenge of matching worker expectations with competitive

demands

Importance of HRM PERSONNEL – EMPLOYEES – STAFF Organizations create rules or guidelines to encourage people

working to accomplish organizational goals. To accomplish the objectives there is need to create good Industrial Relation. For this

Management has to manage / lead people effectively. Cost reduction-down sizing are major concerns , but not at the cost

of quality and losing out to competition. Every Manager wants to deliver quality goods and services. For this

We require quality workforce. People and the way they are managed are the major sources of

competitive advantage.

Importance of HRM Personnel Management helps- build an effective and satisfied

working team. “

“ Human factor of production “-skills, knowledge, physical , mental energy etc are given due consideration.

Dale Yoder said “ managing people is the heart and essence of being a manager. Success or progress of an organization depends on how manager can motivate, understand, lead, inspire and activate them ”.

Definitions of HRM Definitions: D. YODER and others

“HRM is the phase of the management , which deals with the effective control and use of manpower as distinguished from other sources of power.”.

“The management of HR is a system - participants seek to attain both individual and group goals “ .

National Institute of PM “ it is that part of PM function which is primarily concerned with the human relationship within an organization. “

Definitions of HRM “ Personnel Management involves procedures and practices through

human resources and are managed ie organized and directed towards attainment of individual, organizational and social goals”.

British Institute of PM London, “ It is that part of management, which is concerned with the people at work and with their relationship within the enterprise “.

Nature of HRM 1. A NATURE OF HRM – is to reflect its new philosophy , a new

outlook, approach and strategy which views an Organizations manpower as its resource and assets not as liabilities or mere hands.

Mechanisation and IT have brought in more humans with different attitudes and behaviour into Organizations.

HRM looks into the individual needs and motivates them to work. Human element in the enterprise has paved the way for effective management of the organization.

Scope of HRM

Just employment, maintenance of salary records has enlarged to

Providing welfare Performance Appraisal / Management Human Relations Strategic HR Employee Involvement

Scope of HRM Manager’s job is administering a “ social system “. Personnel records is

becoming more and more important so as to ensure the adaptability of personnel / employees.

Labour Relations, Public Relations and plant security are Personnel sub areas – not left to be the sole responsibility of Personnel Department.

The scope is wide and varied “ P. Department and P.Mnagers perform a variety of roles in accordance with the needs of a situation”.

Personnel Managers play multiple roles –bargainers, conscience keepers, peace makers, counselors, Company spokespersons, problem solvers and change managers.

Strategic Role of HRM Firm’s ability to survive and

prosper is increasingly a function of the human resources they have

Managers’ career success depends on how well they manage their firm’s resources

HRM v/s PM HRM is proactive than

reactive. Is goal oriented. Treats labour as social capital

HRM - starts from organization needs for HR with demand rather than supply.

PM - is directed at the employees of the organization

Finding, training, arranging pay and contracts of employment

Explaining what is expected of them.

justifying what management is doing.

Trying to modify management action that could produce an unwelcome response from the employees.

HRM v/s PM In modern HRM

principles and theories from Psychology , Sociology , philosophy, economics and Management are combined.

P Manager ( worst stage ) has to act as organizations social conscience.

P Manager ( best stage ) works as

a well informed specialist , with all members of the organization, in determining and meeting the demands of the social role.

HRM v/s PM

HRM is directed towards managerial needs for resource in organization with greater emphasis on planning, monitoring and control rather than problem solving and mediation.

The strategic and philosophical context of HRM makes it more purposeful, relevant, and more effective.

HRM is significantly different from PM >>>HRM is demand-driven.

PM is subsystem of general management system.

It concentrates on managing human element and other allied aspects.

PM is directed mainly at company employees and not completely identified with management needs.

PM - is supply driven –

PM v/s HRM Most obvious change is a “re-labelling process” ?

A valuable contribution of HRM is to direct the attention to people as the key resource of organisations and lending the

“management of personnel” increased importance.

Procedures and techniques strongly resemble those of personnel management.

There is no single division of responsibility applied to all organizations

Eg: Recruiting & hiring of employees Usually the line manager specifies the qualifications needed to fill

specific positions. Then the HR manager develops sources of qualified candidates,

conducts initial screening (tests) and sends those filtered to line manager.

Line manager conducts the final technical screening tests and selects the one to hire or requests new applicants

Some activities tend to be split between line & HR managers
