Human Resource Management (HRM)

Human Resourcet (HRM)

Human Resource Management (HRM) is the practice of recruiting, hiring, deploying and managing an organization’s employees. A company’s HR manager is usually responsible for creating, putting in to effect and overseeing policies, governing workers and the relationship of the organization with its employees.

HRM is really employee management with an emphasis on those employees as asset of the organization. In this context, employees are sometimes referred to as human capital, as with other business assets. The goal is to make effective use of employees, reducing risk and maximizing return on investment.

  1. YES! you are correct. An evaluation system that is purely subjective the evaluator simply announces whether she thinks the employee’s performance is excellent, good, fair, or poor which is apt to score low on procedural justice, being too susceptible to caprice and bias by the evaluator. Some basis for the evaluation should be offered.
    A compromise scheme that uses objective measures, but tailors the “formula” to the individual situation, invites corruption or at least politicking in the formula setting up process, and as a result can lead to perceptions of procedural injustice.

  4. The original Harvard approach presented by Beer et al, 1984 explicitly emphasis on the importance of multiple stake-holder interests, the relevance of situational factors, and a broad view of the long-term consequences of HRM policies and practices. Stakeholders on the Harvard model were not limited to the top management, share holders and financiers but included the employee groups, trade union, government and the the community. Issues such as business conditions, business strategy, management philosophy, technology, workforce characteristics and trade unions are considered as Situational factors.
