...HISTORICAL EVOLUTION AND DEVELOPMENT OF HUMAN RESOURCES AND HR MANAGEMENT. BENSON MWENDWA WAMBUA KENYATTA UNIVERSITY D241/OL/CTY/7935/2014 BBA 032: FUNDAMENTALS OF HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT Abstract Introduction Human Resource Management is a business function, which manages, leads, facilitates and provides tools for the human capital management in the organization. HR sets strategic processes and procedures, runs difficult and complex communication campaigns as the organization attracts the best talents from the job market, retains them with the attractive compensation packages or it develops them in talent development programs. HR runs many processes, which are crucial for the modern organization. We cannot believe that the successful business could exist without the Recruitment and Staffing, Compensation and Benefits, Training and Development or the Leadership Development. However, in the past the companies did not use any of the HR value added processes. The story of Human Resources started as evidence of all employees. It dealt with issues and requests. Nothing more was expected to be delivered. The HR Management history is fascinating. The wars usually change the path of Human Resources in organizations and society. The evolution and background of HR Management It is a paradox of the human history that best things evolve. The history of the modern Human Resources Management is not a deviation from this general rule of the human history. However...

Johnson EDITORS’ NOTE The purpose of this chapter is to provide an introduction to the fields of human resource management (HRM) and information technology (IT) and to the combination of these two fields into human resource information systems (HRIS). The history of the field of HRM and the impact of computer technology on HRM will be covered, as well as the advent of using a human resource information system and the subsequent effects on both HR and IT professionals. The different types of HR activities will be discussed as well as the different types of information systems used in HRIS. A central focus of this chapter is the use in managerial decision making of results and reports from an HRIS. The development of the HRIS field has been seen to have a significant impact on the emergence of strategic human resource management (Strategic HRM), as is discussed in this chapter. This first chapter will lay the groundwork for the remainder of this book, and, consequently, it is important to understand thoroughly the concepts and ideas it presents. This chapter contains definitions for a number of terms in common use in the HRM, IT, and HRIS fields. (Note that a glossary defining these terms is also provided at the back of this book.)

This study addresses and works on the existing research gap by investigating the roles of HR managers among the different roles which were defined at the fist by Dave Ulrich.

This article aims to explore, identity and explain factors that can affect an organisation’s approach to attracting talent, retaining a diverse workforce, recruitment, selection policies, the purpose, benefits of an effective induction for both individuals and organisations. 1. Identifies and assesses four factors (things) that affect an organisation’s approach to attracting talent: Demand and Supply: The demand and supply of talent in an organisation depends on the activities and nature of the business. If the activities of the business are in decline, such as the current situation in British steel manufacturing sector it will make the skills and jobs redundant. Less resources means low demand and supply of the talent within the organisation. HR needs to understand the business and relevant it is within their labour markets Skills Shortage: Skill shortage is the situation where “particular skills exceed the numbers of people...

Abstract The purpose of this briefing paper is to take me through the process of preparing to write an academic paper. The aim is to devise a plan of how I intend to approach the second assignment and a justification of how and why I have chosen the individual topic relating to the key issues HR managers face will be made clear. In addition a brief summary of the elements, focuses and arguments that are to be covered in the individual paper will be looked at. The structure, draft of the introduction of the final paper and an evaluation assessing my progress so far will be embodied. 2. Background This briefing paper is essential because it clearly presents the process that I will undergo to complete the individual paper, it will provide guidance, advice and include specific resources. I will critically analyze the key issues HR managers face with reference to managing job design and flexibility and how HR managers could address the issues mentioned.

It is substantial because it leads to greater organizational effectiveness and efficiency as well as better results from employees. The areas I will cover in this paper include various approaches to job...

...16 Recording, analysing and using HR information 3RAI F203A (HR) Activity 1 Introduction Throughout organisations it has become evident that HR departments must collect and store various types of data. Through reference to data stored, this can be used to influence business decisions as the data is analysed and used in conjunction with the company’s strategy and objectives. This report will discuss examples of the reasons why HR must collect data, types of data, how this can be stored and legislation that the organisation must comply with. Why HR Data is collected There are various reasons why there is a need for organisations to collect and store HR data. Firstly, it is important to collect and store accurate information to comply with legislation. For example, Right to Work, supporting documents from employees, equality act, documentation to prove the organisation is compliant with UK policies. Health and safety at work act (1974), documents providing evidence of training carried out which ensures that all staff are trained in compliance with the law. By storing the accurate, up to date documentation the data can be used as evidence to support the organisations either legally or at audits. Another example of why data should be recorded to highlight patterns or concerns that may lead to other problems in the workplace. For example, absence records. By storing information on employee absence, it allows for trends in employee absence to be highlighted and took...

...[pic]For Efficient HR Management, Be Consistent! García Ruiz, P.; Sánchez-Runde, Carlos J. Publisher: Universitat Rovira i Virgili [pic]During the 80's, there was a lot of talk about the need for human resource management studies to have a strong theoretical foundation, beyond case by case analysis. Various authors responded by formulating three hypotheses. The "vertical fit hypothesis" says that HR practices must be aligned with the company's strategy. The "performance hypothesis" suggests that if strategy and HR management are consistent, the organization will perform better. Lastly, the "horizontal fit hypothesis" says that neither vertical fit nor better performance will be possible unless HR practices are understood as a consistent system. Consistency refers to a problem that occurs in many organizations. Namely, a measure may be good, but it is not sufficient merely to implement it without further ado. If a company emphasizes a particular process - say, training - but does not simultaneously reinforce its control and compensation systems, it will send contradictory signals to its employees. As a result, the effectiveness of both training and compensation will be seriously impaired. The difficulty for HR managers is that there are so many obstacles and challenges arising from the increasing diversity of practice and the need for HR practices to meld with other corporate systems and policies. In "Teoría de sistemas y propiedades emergentes en las organizaciones"...
