...Human Resource Management: Introduction: Human resource management (HRM or simply HR) is the management of an organization's workforce, or human resources. It is responsible for the attraction, selection, training, assessment, and rewarding of employees, while also overseeing organizational leadership and culture, and ensuring compliance with employment and labor laws. In startup companies, HR's duties may be performed by trained professionals. In larger companies, an entire functional group is typically dedicated to the discipline, with staff specializing in various HR tasks and functional leadership engaging in strategic decision making across the business (Guest, D.E. (1998)). The company I have chosen to do my assignment on is “Marks and Spencer”. The reason why I chose this organization was because of its popularity in our economy also its reputation in people’s perspectives. Marks and Spencer PLC is a major British multinational retailer in UK. It specializes in the selling of clothing and luxury food products. M&S was founded in 1884 by Michael Marks and Thomas Spencer in Leeds. Company Background: Marks & Spencer is one of the UK's leading retailers of clothing, foods, home ware and financial services, serving 10 million customers a week in over 300 UK stores. The Company also trades in 30 countries worldwide, and has a Group turnover in excess of £8 billion (Prahalad, C. and Hamel, G. (1990)). M&S expanded into UK in 1973, and at one point had forty seven...
