INTRODUCTION

In all organizations today, there is a separate department that takes care of the

welfare and performance of all those who are part of the organizations’ operations.

Depending on the size of the organization, there is usually an individual or a team

of people involved in organizing programmes, putting processes in place and setting

policies that directly affect all those working with or associated with the organization.

Such a team is said to be in charge of Human Resource Management. The Human

Resource Management team is involved in a lot of activities including setting rules,

establishing operation policies and processes, outlining disciplinary procedures,

recruiting new employees, organizing training and educational programmes for the

existing employees and deciding on the compensation.

With increasing globalization of economy, the marketplace has become

increasingly complex, highly uncertain, competitive and transformational. What

makes the ultimate difference is whether an organization is able to develop and

establish competitive differentiation or not. It is here that people provide

organizations with a sustained competitive advantage. Organizations are required

to adopt proactive development programmes towards the attainment of corporate

objectives by nurturing a development oriented culture. Human Resource

Management deals with creating conditions that enable people to get the best out

of themselves and their lives.

This book, Human Resource Management , is divided into fourteen units

that follow the self-instruction mode with each unit beginning with an Introduction

to the unit, followed by an outline of the Objectives. The detailed content is then

presented in a simple but structured manner interspersed with Check Your Progress

Questions to test the student’s understanding of the topic. A Summary along with

a list of Key Words and a set of Self-Assessment Questions and Exercises is also

provided at the end of each unit for recapitulation.
