CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION

HUMAN RESOURCE DEPARTMENT

Human Resource Management function that helps managers recruit, select,

train and develop members for an organization. Obviously, HRM is
concerned with the peoples dimension in organizations.

Work force of an Organization is one of the most important inputs of

components. It is said that people are our single most important assets.
Because of the unique importance of HUMAN RESOURCE and its
complexity due to ever changing psychology, behavior and attitudes of men
and women at work, in all business concerns, there is one common element.
I.e. Human personnel function, i.e., manpower management function is
becoming increasingly specialized. The personnel function or system can be
broadly defined as the management of people at work- management of
managers and management of workers. Personnel function is particularly
interested in personnel relationship and interaction of employees-human
relations.

In a sense, management is personnel administration. Management is the

development of people, and not mere direction of material resources. Human

of management is the leadership and direction of people. Each manager of
people has to be his own personnel man. Personnel management is not
something you really turn over to personnel department staff.
