Because the human resources are an important part of the structure of any company or organization and is directly responsible for measuring management experts to the effect of their policies on job performance, most companies are taking care of it. It is very important to create the appropriate environment for the staff, communicate with them and to benefit the most of their abilities and measure the return on investment in training, and this became the basis of the golden rules of the best companies in the world today. Today, a successful manager is the one who follows those rules and provides a better working environment, and in light of the difficult economic conditions experienced by everyone, the staff calls for individual programs in order to improve performance and meet the functional challenges, and if everyone at work has special needs must be heard by the employer and understand is because listening and realizing the opposite end is the basis for the successful practices of human resource management and corrective measures in the company and motivate staff. Some companies work on an annual survey and according to specific criteria such as professional development of employees, salary levels and stimulating, the work environment that reflects the nature of the deal between the employee and administrative leadership, the extent of respect and appreciation received by the employee in addition to the extent of his participation in the decision-making related to his

With the issues that arise, managers and employees alike are not left alone to fend for themselves and a solution might only be possible through the use of formal policies by inclusion of the Human Resources Department. Nonetheless, the use of the Human Resource Department should be used after clarity of the situation and lack of an informal solution. This helps to minimize the gravity of the situation and building of cultural
It is necessary for human resource management to have a proper human resource planning. “Human resource planning involves planning that assure a firm’s needs for employees”, says Madura. She also includes that human resource planning consists of three tasks which are forecasting staffing needs, job analysis (Madura, 2007). Recruiting and selecting the right employee is not enough. There is a necessity to provide continuous training and development to the employees to be more productive and efficient. With great training, it enables the employees to be more innovative, creative, motivated and thus increase their working performance. Training can be through various types such as on the job training, off the job training, job rotation and scholarships.
Years ago, workers were treated as slaves and considered as commodities coupled with extremely bad and unhygienic working conditions, negligible or extremely poor wages, long hours of work- from dawn to dusk and so on. Today, people are considered to be an invaluable asset for any organization. Several factors joined hands to change this environment. Years ago, Human Resources (HR) was may be all about ‘production and getting the work done’, but now it is a major management function that explores several activities that are vital to effectively manage employees. Years ago, during the Factory Era or the Industrial Revolution period, the focus was on mass production and specialization. The Production Era then focused on the Scientific Management Movement that meant exclusively improving productivity and manufacturing methods. This was when the concept of

Among businesses seeking competitive advantage, it is readily acknowledged that human capital represents an organization’s greatest asset. As such, it is critical for organizations to devise an effective method of human resource management (HRM) in order to maintain a competitive advantage within a global market. In addition, globalization of business has led organizations throughout the world to invest heavily in technology, and more specifically, in Human Resource Information Systems (HRIS) to efficiently handle such tasks such as recruitment, training, support, and management of its human resources (HR). In defining what an HRIS is, Kavanagh and Thite (2015) explain:
This report firstly aims to recommend to the CEO some ways to improve the operations of human resource management. They include the establishment of a human resource team as well as policies and practices, defining clear roles and responsibilities, the decision on what to outsource, the relationship between managers and human resources, and communicating. Second, it points out some suggestions to build a sustainable human resource capacity, which consist of the understanding business insights, building workforce strategy, change, and the 4+2 organization formula.
From the past until present, in order to achieve competitive advantage to compete in turbulence and highly competitive market environment, the one who take control over the organisation should design powerful strategies. To create that strategies, managers need both good understanding in internal and external environment, and effective managerial skill to organise sophisticate works arising in organisational routine systematically. The one who assigned as manager has power to control over company resources which included human being. Human can be considered as one of the most valuable resources in the company because value can be added to them through education and experience. However, human could be considered as the most complicate resource. This is because they have personal needs, ambition, and feeling which are different between one to others. Unlike machines or other type of assets that similarly designed to do specific jobs, stereotype should not be applied to workers and there is no one best way to manage or to control them. In particular, it can be said that one size does not fit all. As the result, this issue could be considered as one of the most wildly discussed topics among managerial scholars. The idea of how to manage and control over human being in the work place start in the period of industrial revolution where the factory trying to maximise their profits through the concept of economy of scale. Human as the resources to produce things has been controlled
It is mandatory that the human resources department understands “the culture of the employees in their organisation” so that they can fulfil the needs of their employees. If organisations do not have a greater understanding, the culture of their employees, then it would be very complicated for the team to accomplish both the objectives and the aims of the company.
Human Resource Management (HRM) can be described as the term that is used to define formal systems developed for the administration of people/ personnel within the organization. The major responsibilities of the Human Resource are normally divided into three major areas of management: employee compensation, staffing the employees, and defining/designing work. Fundamentally, the major purpose of Human Resource Management is to make the most of the productivity of an organization by improving the efficiency of its staffs. The Human Resource comes across numerous issues and challenges, and in order to solve those issues, the HR managers have to take specific steps. In this paper, I am describing a particular issue related to Human Resource Management, which I have witnessed and I am intended to solve through my strategic and organizational point of view (Simons, 2011).
It is without question that there are many vital theories within human resources that help human resource personnel to manage and direct the efficiency, productivity, and utility of their respective workforces. As such, the field of human resources is diverse and necessarily covers a very large range of key issues. However, the fact of the matter is the human resources department operates as a means of fulfilling two distinct roles. The first of these roles is obviously the need to provide the workforce of the entity/firm/organization in question with an internal advocate that they may utilize as a means of making the most of the work environment. Secondly, human
As competition increases around the world, leading companies in every business category have recognized that having a quality workforce can help the company gain a competitive advantage in the market. Many companies have started hiring people irrespective of their race, sex, religion, nationality etc. The critical thing for any company is to understand and use potential of their workforce. Building and managing top-quality workforce is not as easy as it may seem. In order to get to this point, a company has to believe that the human resource department is an investment and not a liability. Having a diverse workforce can invite a lot of issues that dent the company’s performance. Human resource management plays a strategic role in managing people, workplace culture and environment. In order to be the best in human resource management an organization has to be the best in planning. The plan that the human resource management develops will come from the company’s master plan and the strategies have to reflect the company’s priorities. The basic essence of HRM is to concentrate on recruiting, managing, organizational development, safety, wellness, benefits, employee motivation, training.
Human resource management processes and activities are also used for being competitive by organisation; HRM Process:
“Every aspect of a firm's activities is determined by the competence, motivation and general effectiveness of its human organization. Of all the tasks of management, managing the human component is the most important task because all else depends upon how well it is done.”(Likert 1967). Although this quote has already over 40 years of age, the core statement has not changed in any way. Still, managers have to focus on the people working in their companies, need to take differences among them into account and especially when it comes to managing in various countries, cultural, natural and unavoidable differences have to be taken into consideration ( Hofstede 1987).
