...Reiteration of Goals and Objectives My goal for the internship with The Trust Hospital was to come out of the internship with knowledge of the inner workings of managing work-life balance issues in the hospital. Prior to beginning the internship I was told that my responsibilities would include interviewing patients or representatives to obtain and record name, address, age, religion, persons to notify in case of emergency, attending physician, and individual or insurance company responsible for payment of bill. For the first month or so of the internship, I felt that it was a much directed process. Daily I would arrive at The Trust Hospital and my tasks for the day would be emailed to me along with a detailed explanation of how to complete them. As I became more comfortable and aware of what tasks needed to be completed by the intern at TTH, the internship became much more self-start. My ultimate goal was to develop an understanding of how to complete these responsibilities and learn as much about Human Resource practices in the process. Quality of Instruction The quality of instruction that I received during this internship is a priceless asset in my learning as a human resource management student. Since The Trust Hospital is a small company, there is not a Human Resource Management Department. These tasks are carried out by different personnel throughout the organization. Staffing needs are taken care of by upper management (Administrator), when a job becomes available...

Sarmiento, Jeffrey P.\ Manzano, Adrian Rome Taoingan, Jan Iam Guido March 2013 CHAPTER I The Problem and Its Background 1.1 Introduction Early times were all on the job training. It would usually take an entire village to learn how to construct a shelter, when one moved one, he taught his skills to others.

...Int. J. of Human Resource Management 16:4 April 2005 584– 598 The challenge of international human resource management: balancing the duality of strategy and practice Helen De Cieri, Marilyn Fenwick and Kate Hutchings Abstract Over the last two decades there has been an unprecedented increase in the number of organizations that have internationalized their operations. The international movement of labour that has been concomitant with such expansion of international business has meant that issues associated with the management of human resources across international borders are increasingly important to international human resource managers and academics. The research presented in this paper examines international human resource management (IHRM) pedagogy and practice in Australia. It reports IHRM academicians’ and practitioners’ understanding of the major issues for teaching and practice in IHRM and elucidates current developments and directions for this field. Keywords International human resource management; pedagogy; Australia. Introduction During the last two decades academicians and practitioners of international management have paid increasing attention to the impact of globalization on the management of human resources across national boundaries. International businesses have increasingly turned their attention to issues such as expatriate management (employees being transferred by organizations to work outside their country of origin/permanent residence), managing...

...HRM in India Summary ------------------------------------------------- India is being widely recognised as one of the most exciting emerging economics in the world. Besides becoming a global hub of outsourcing, Indian firms are spreading their wings globally through mergers and acquisitions. During the first four months of 1997, Indian companies have bought 34 foreign companies for about U.S. $11 billion dollars. This impressive development has been due to a growth in inputs (capital and labour) as well as factor productivity. By the year 2020, India is expected to add about 250 million to its labour pool at the rate of about 18 million a year, which is more than the entire labour force of Germany. This so called ‘demographic dividend’ has drawn a new interest in the Human Resource concepts and practices in India. This paper traces notable evidence of economic organisations and managerial ideas from ancient Indian sources with enduring traditions and considers them in the context of contemporary challenges. Intriduction Over many centuries India has absorbed managerial ideas and practices from around the world. Early records of trade, from 4500 B.C. to 300 B.C., not only indicate international economic and political links, but also the ideas of social and public administration. The world’s first management book, titled ‘Arlhãshastra’, written three millennium before Christ, codified many aspects of human resource practices in Ancient India. This treatise presented notions...

Threads of Constraint: Ethnic Minority Migrant Women and Employment, Research and Practice in Human Resource Management, 16(2), 25-40. Threads of Constraint: Ethnic Minority Migrant Women and Employment Edwina Pio Abstract Nations, organisations and ethnic minority migrants are compelled to deal with issues emerging from the perceptions and politicisation of ethnicity. Issues of ethnicity are often fore grounded in the zone of work where the complexities of migration, ethnicity, gender and employment intersect. This paper highlights the perceptions of university business students in a New Zealand university with reference to ethnic minority women and employment. Through a study of various databases and the construction of parables on ethnic minority women in New Zealand, the experiences of recruitment and selection, diversity management and career progression emerge as themes in the perceived employment experiences of ethnic minority migrant women. The paper argues for the need to highlight narratives of ethnic minority women through creative pedagogy in order to sensitise business students and future managers to the consequences of migration and a need for the intelligent utilisation of human resources in a world that...

...CHAPTER 1 Background of the Study *INTRODUCTION Training is a process of learning that takes place in a normal working station using different tools, materials, and documents for acquiring new ideas and skills. Training also is the execution of the things they have learned inside the four corners of the classroom, but not only execution, also the enhancement of the knowledge that they had acquired. Hotel practicum is one of the most effective training grounds for them students. In hotel practicum, they can showcase all the skills and knowledge they earned/gained in their school. The Practicum trainee will also meet new people and build good rapport with them; they will handle different guest complaints and different experiences while learning new things that are not inside the four corners of their classroom. *As the Practicum trainee finished the Hotel Practicum, the evaluation form will be given to the supervisors to rate the Practicum trainee on how well they perform during the Hotel Practicum. In the evaluation sheet, there is a part of it that is spaced for the comments and suggestions. Supervisors may state there about how students may improve their performance and they can also write there what factors that are not stated in the evaluation sheet but need to be evaluated. This study entitled “PUP BSHRM Hotel Practicum Evaluation Sheet of BATCH 2013-2014: A Proposal Intervention of Hotel Practicum Evaluation Sheet” aims to prove recommendations and actions...

...headquarters of foreign multinational firms. The data were supplemented by secondary data from a wide range of sources, including government reports and media coverage to extend contextual understanding. Findings – The paper reveals that most Chinese organizations do not see DM as an issue. Where exists, its focus is on conflict avoidance rather than value-addition to the business. In contrast, managing diversity in India is of greater significance for firms, both legally and financially. Compared with their Chinese counterparts, the Indian managers are much more familiar with the notion of diversity. They are more informed and articulate about diversity issues in their country and organization. DM as a softer approach to human resource management (HRM) has yet to feature as an espoused HR strategy in...

...Business Studies University of Dhaka Date of Submission: 28th February, 2015 1.1 Introduction The concept of HRM became popular in the early 1980s; since then there has been increasing interest in the academic concept as well as in the research area. Early models of HRM were largely conceptual and not based on substantial empirical evidence for their validity (Beer, Spector, Lawrence, Miles & Walton, 1984; For burn, Tichy & Devanna,1984; Guest,1989). Human Resources (HR) are considered as the most important assets of an organization, but very few organizations are able to fully harness its potential (Ahmed & schroeder, 2002). Human resources system is a distinct but interrelated activities, functions and processes that are directed at attracting, developing and maintaining or disposing firms’ human resources (Lado & Wilson, 1994). Human resources in other words, well informed capable citizenry can improve the total ability of an organization, a society, a government agency and virtually of a country, of a nation (khan, 2003). Human resources are the most important assets of an organizations because without them the business functions such as managing cash flow, making business transactions, communicating through all forms of media, and dealing with customers could not be completed (Haslinda, 2009). Human Resource Management (HRM) is the function within an organization that focuses on recruitment of, management of, and providing direction for the people...

...structured interviewing is rapidly increasing and is used by all sizes of organisation. Behavioural interviewing is being used more than situational interviewing, and many respondents use both techniques. Structured techniques are most commonly used for management posts. Discusses links with competency based HRM and roles of line managers and HR specialists in selection. Areas for further research are outlined. Introduction Interviewing is still the most commonly used method of selection in employment, in spite of the fact that many studies have shown it to be a very flawed technique. Given the preference of managers and human resource practitioners for interviewing, structured interviewing techniques have been suggested as a means of improving validity. Much of the research into these interviewing techniques is experimental in nature, and the aim of the present study was to identify and explore the use of two particular structured interviewing techniques by various organisations in the UK. This is seen as the first stage of a larger study. The next stage will provide more detailed analysis of how the techniques are introduced and applied, together with benefits and problems in practice....
