Human Resource Management: Dynamic Function

Ever Changing Environment

The work environment in every organization all over the world is changing at an accelerated pace. HRM has to keep pace with these changes.

Human Resource Management (HRM): Implications of Factors of Change

In the enhanced role of HRM, it has to understand the implications of:

  • Technological advancements
  • Impact of globalization
  • Decentralized offices and units
  • New competencies and skills
  • Emergence of knowledge worker
  • Diverse workforce management: multi-cultures
  • Participative management
  • Need for business focus on external environment: customers, stake holders, supply chain etc
  • Continuous improvement management interventions

(Also refer: http://strategic-functions-hrm.blogspot.com/)

HRM Managers Should Function Like Business Managers

  • HRM managers are no more like internal consultants or only staff people, they have to work like any other business manager just as sales managers, marketing managers or finance managers etc do. They should start acting like line managers.
  • HRM departments are no more the cost centers. They are also profit centers of an organization.
  • HRM executives should learn to become business and commerce savvy.
  • HRM managers should also develop an external environment orientation in addition to being internally oriented.

    Differences between Personnel Management (PM) and Human Resources Management (HRM)

    1. Personnel mean employed persons of an organization. Management of these people is personnel management (PM). Human resource management (HRM) is the management of employees’ knowledge, aptitudes, abilities, talents, creative abilities and skills/competencies.

    2. PM is traditional, routine, maintenance-oriented, administrative function whereas HRM is continuous, on-going development function aimed at improving human processes.

    3. PM is an independent function with independent sub-functions. HRM follows the systems thinking approach. It is not considered in isolation from the larger organization and must take into account the linkages and interfaces.

    4. PM is treated like a less important auxiliary function whereas HRM is considered a strategic management function.

    5. PM is reactive, responding to demands as and when they arise. HRM is proactive, anticipating, planning and advancing continuously.

    6. PM is the exclusive responsibility of the personnel department. HRM is a concern for all managers in the organization and aims at developing the capabilities of all line managers to carry out the human resource related functions.

    7. The scope of PM is relatively narrow with a focus on administering people. The scope of HRM views the organization as a whole and lays emphasis on building a dynamic culture.

    8. PM is primarily concerned with recruitment, selection and administration of manpower. HRM takes efforts to satisfy the human needs of the people at work that helps to motivate people to make their best contribution.

    9. Important motivators in PM are compensation, rewards, job simplification and so on. HRM considers work groups, challenges and creativity on the job as motivators.

    10. In PM improved satisfaction is considered to be the cause for improved performance but in HRM it is the other way round (performance is the cause and satisfaction is the result).

    11. In PM, employee is treated as an economic unit as his services are exchanged for wages/salary. Employee in HRM is treated not only as economic unit but also a social and psychological entity.

    12. PM treats employee as a commodity or a tool or like equipment that can be bought and used. Employee is treated as a resource and as a human being.

    13. In PM employees are considered as cost centers and therefore, management controls the cost of labor. HRM treats employees as profit centers and therefore, the management invests in this capital through their development and better future utility.

    14. PM’s angle is that employees should be used mostly for organizational benefits and profits. HRM angle emphasizes on the mutual benefits, both of employees and their families and also the company.

    15. PM preserves information and maintains its secrecy. In HRM communication is one of its main tasks which take into account vertical, lateral and feedback type communication.

    Differences between Human Resource Management (HRM) and Human Resource Development (HRD)

    1. HRM is a subset of the entire management processes of an organization. HRD is a subset of HRM.

    2. Scope of HRM is wider. Scope of HRD as compared to HRM is narrower.

    3. HRM manages and develops the human elements of an organization in its entirety on longer term basis. HRD focuses on those learning experiences which are organized for a specific period to bring about the desired behavioral changes.

    4. HRM emphasizes that employees, their abilities and their attitudes constitute an important organizational resource that should be used effectively and efficiently to achieve organizational as well as employees' goals. HRD emphasizes mainly on training and development of employees.

    5. HRM takes decisions on HRD plans. HRD thus depends on the decisions of HRM.

    6. HRM at its center has HRD. HRD's cooperation is important for overall success of HRM. HRD has to work within the realm of HRM and therefore, it's objectives should be in tandem with the broader objectives of HRM. Thus, HRM and HRD are interdependent.

    7. HRM takes care of all the human needs and tries to satisfy these needs so that the employees are motivated from all the angles to contribute their best to achieve organizational goals. HRD focuses on upgrading the skills and competencies of the employees in order to improve the performance of the employees on the job.
