Essentials of Human Resource Management by Dr. S.D. Singh - Trade Paperback - College Books

Human resource can be defined as people who are employed in an organisation and are responsible for carrying out operations. Every organisation is made up of people and renders its services from them. It is the skills, talents, creativity, and drive of human resource that make it possible for an organisation to be successful. Thus, human resource has now become an invaluable asset for organisations. It is of paramount importance for organisations to manage employees well so that they can better work toward the accomplishment of organisational goals and objectives. Human Resource Management (HRM) is a comprehensive process of acquiring, developing, motivating, and maintaining a pool of efficient employees. The main aim of HRM is to ensure the right people with the right skills for the right job position in an organisation. The keyfunctions of HRM include recruiting people, training them, appraising their performance, motivating them, ensuring their health and safety, managing workplace communication, and so on. Effective HRM en-courages employees to work efficiently towards accomplishment of organisational goals and objectives.
