“Human Resource Management has evolved a lot since the inception of common rules and regulations.”
The evolution of human resource management as a distinct profession dates back to the industrial revolution when companies established one dedicated personnel departments to look into wages and welfare of workers. And it was indeed a much considered department for the welfare of the worker and business of the organization.
What does this department or person responsible for this looks after:
- Recruitment of the employees
- Wage management of the employees
- Interviews and discussion
- Personal management of the disputes between individuals or between groups of people.
- Employee record keeping
- Training of the team and adherence to the stated policies
- Responsibility of taking welfare oriented measures
- Attempting to increase productivity through wage increment or promotion or shifts.
- To deal with trade unions to settle company related disputes
- Conducting performance appraisals or reports for the past performance for performance analysis to give promotions
Human Resource Management has evolved a lot since the inception of common rules and regulations. It has indeed become more cumbersome and technical most of the time. Now, management of employees comes first in every organization or company that deals with human strength for their business or for the flow of their routine work.
Where this system is lagging?
It has been found and pointed out when asked to employees, that why they are not happy with their present company. Well, the answers were crazy! As their wellbeing has not been taken care by the company, they are unhappy with their wage increment rules, Employees are being cheated by the bosses, Company does not share its profits with the employees etc etc.
