...Human Resource Management Submitted by: Amandeep Kaur Contribution of Human Resource Management in achievement of organisational objectives Human Resource Management seeks to achieve - Individual, Social Organizational Goals: Organization is a social unit that is composed of number of people and function through people only. All the resources such as men, money, materials and machinery are collected, co-ordinate and fictionalized by the people. Without human efforts, no organization can achieve its goals. Therefore, this resource is called human resource, which is the most significant resource of any organization. We also consider that human resource become unending source of ability, power, skill, efficiency, knowledge, creativity for accomplishment of organizational objectives and also play crucial role in management process. These days, organizations have realized that the most valuable asset in the organization is its people. The growth of an organization depends on talent of its human assets as people act as change agents for the implementation of any initiatives in an organization.(Baptiste, 2004) Human resource management is a set of policies, practices and programs formulated to achieve both personal and organizational goals as it is the process of binding people and organizations together.

...Doing Better by the Environment A Nestlé case study Introduction The environment is a key subject that affects us all. Protection of the environment and the move towards sustainable development remains a responsibility that must be shared between the public, governments and the private sector. Following years of work on environmental issues dating back to the 30's, in 1996 the Nestlé Environmental Management System (NEMS) was introduced which consolidates all environmental measures taken by the Nestlé Group. NEMS is now used to ensure continuous improvement in Nestlé's environmental performance covering all its business activities. This case study examines the background to sustainable development, the environment and its protection. It also looks at how Nestlé S.A., the world's leading food company, developed a policy and current business practices that reduce the company's effect on the environment. Sustainable Development The latter part of the twentieth century saw an increasing concern for the environment. The concept of sustainable development (as defined by the World Commission on Environment and Development in 1987) is: "development that meets the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." There are many views about the nature of sustainability. In its simplest form it is about ensuring a better quality of life for everyone, now and for future generations.

...History The key factor which drove the early history of the enterprise that would become The Nestlé Company was Henri Nestlé's search for a healthy, economical alternative to breastfeeding for mothers who could not feed their infants at the breast. In the mid-1860s Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, began experimenting with various combinations of cow's milk, wheat flour and sugar in an attempt to develop an alternative source of infant nutrition for mothers who were unable to breast feed. His ultimate goal was to help combat the problem of infant mortality due to malnutrition. He called the new product Farine Lactée Henri Nestlé. Nestlé's first customer was a premature infant who could tolerate neither his mother's milk nor any of the conventional substitutes, and had been given up for lost by local physicians. People quickly recognized the value of the new product, after Nestlé's new formula saved the child's life and within a few years, Farine Lactée Nestlé was being marketed in much of Europe. Henri Nestlé also showed early understanding of the power of branding. He had adopted his own coat of arms as a trademark; in Swiss German, Nestlé means 'little nest'. One of his agents suggested that the nest could be exchanged for the white cross of the Swiss flag. His response was firm: "I regret that I cannot allow you to change my nest for a Swiss cross .... I cannot have a different trademark in every country; anyone can make use of a cross, but no-one else may use my coat...

...From: Sustainable Agriculture, Nestlé To: Hans Joehr, Corporate Head of Agriculture, Nestlé Subject: SAIN Update – Corporate Synergy Recommendation Date: October 24th, 2012 Recommended Action: I recommend implementation of increasing the amount of resources to help small sourced farmers upgrade their capacities and educate them on environmentally sustainable practices. Sustainable agriculture is not only an issue of supply and quality, but Nestlé should look to update Sustainable Agriculture Initiatives Nestlé (SAIN) to include a greater role with farmers to further decrease environmentally destructive agricultural practices. Issues: Agricultural production on the scale that Nestlé is involved in can have several negative environmental impacts from pesticides, fertilizer, irrigation practices, and conversion of forest to croplands. Implementing increased sustainable agricultural policies will reduce the impact of the many destructive practices that are still in use today. Nestlé has a corporate obligation to continue to explore, modify and expand policies of SAIN to ensure that we not only maximize our profits and improve yield, but also decrease our impacts on an environment as whole. It is time that Nestlé begins to take increased accountability with its farmers and properly stewards them in best agribusiness practices including environmental sustainability. While SAIN has made important strides in the agribusiness industry, thus far, Nestlé’s decentralized...
