Document Summary

Mgm101- chapter 9- human resource management human resource management (hrm): the process of determining human resource needs and then recruiting, selecting, developing, motivating, evaluating, compensating, and scheduling employees to achieve organizational goals. One reason why human resource management is receiving increased attention is the major shift from traditional manufacturing industries to service and high-tech manufacturing industries that require highly technical job skills. This shift means that many workers must be retrained for new, more challenging jobs. Job analysis: a study of what is done by employees who hold various job titles. Job description: a summary of the objectives of a job, the type of work to be done, the responsibilities and duties, the working conditions, and the relationship of the job to other functions. Job specifications: a written summary of the minimum qualifications required of workers to do a particular job. All management, including human resource management, begins with planning.
