Importance of Human Resource Management For many years, people thought t

9、hat the important factors of any company to survive were the companys financial health, product and market development, minimizing costs and improving customer relations. Nowadays, more companies recognize that managing human resources within the company is no less important than these factors. Many

10、 experts suggest: it is the work force and the companys ability to recruit and maintain the good work force that constitutes the foundation of a companys progressing. Therefore, Human Resource Management (HRM) is more often considered as a fundamental and crucial element in any organization. Organiz

11、ations greatest assets are human resources. A companys competitive advantage is gained through a competent, committed workforce. Only effective HRM allows organizations to achieve their goals and objectives. Specifically speaking, the effective HRM can give a company the following competitive edge o

12、ver its rival companies:1. Hard-working employees are more likely to produce excellent work that adds value to the organization.2. Possessing sound employee relations will encourage outside investors to buy shares of the company, so that it becomes easier for the company to raise funds.3. Company re

13、sources will be used in the most efficient way, via recruitment of the best people, improvement of employees ability and skills through training, etc.4. The organizational culture will be more conducive to quality performance.Therefore, companies, who are expert in the management of human resources,

14、 will develop considerably. In order to understand the detailed functions of HRM, wed better first look at what the Human Resource Management means.According to Graham and Bennett (1998), “Human resources management concerns the human side of the management of enterprises and employees relations wit

15、h their firms. Its purpose is to ensure that the employees of a company, i.e. its human resources, are used in such a way that the employer obtains the great possible benefit from their abilities, and the employees obtain both material and psychological rewards from their work. ”O(jiān)nce known as Person

16、nel Administration, the meaning of HRM is continually evolving and expanding. The change in its title also reflects that the discipline of HRM has moved from being largely administrative to being a strategic and dynamic management field. Generally speaking, Human Resource Management refers to the pr

17、actices as follows:1. Conducting job analyses (determining the nature of each employees job)2. Planning labor needs and recruiting job candidates3. Selecting job candidates4. Orienting and training new employees5. Managing wages and salaries (determining how to compensate employees)6. Providing ince

18、ntives and benefits7. Evaluating performance8. Communicating 9. Training and developing10. Building employee commitmentOn the basis of those practices, HR managers work effectively and efficiently to enable employees to contribute their maximized efforts towards the objectives of the business. Meanw

19、hile, a variety of functions are incorporated within the overall functions of the Human Resources Manager. The following pages will elaborate how to conduct the effective management of human resources in organizations. 2. Conducting effective Human Resource ManagementEffective HRM could enable emplo

20、yees to maximize their work efficiency and their contribution towards the company. In order to achieve that, higher standard and more challenges are posted to Human Resource Managers. A good HR manager has to know how to get the right people into the right place at the right time and how to manage t

21、hem effectively once they are there. Usually this involves:1. Identifying the kinds of human resources that are needed to fulfill the planning and objectives of the company. It must be viewed from both quantity and quality perspectives, such as how many people should be hired and what kind of compet

22、ences, aptitudes, skills and attitudes they must possess.2. Identifying the vacancy in the departments of the company.3. Developing a process of recruitment and selection to place right people in right position, where they can exercise their talents properly.4. Clarifying responsibilities and object

23、ives to employees, to ensure that their performance and personal objectives are tightly linked with the objectives of the company.5. Motivating the workforce by systematically compensating the efforts of employees. The compensation system must be rational, equitable and incentive, in order to retain

24、ing and motivating employees.6. Cultivating the competency and capability of employees through training programs. After hiring new employees, HR manager has to design comprehensive training programs to ensure that the new employees become qualified as soon as possible. Before the promotion of presen

25、t employees, the consequent training should also be conducted, so that the promoted employees could suit the new position more quickly. 7. Maintaining a highly efficient workforce through performance evaluation. Collaborating with department managers, HR managers have to evaluate employees performan

26、ce monthly and yearly, to ensure everyone in the company performs well. To explain how to perform the above-mentioned functions most effectively, we may need to study the profound discipline of Human Resource Management in depth. Here four key aspects of effective HRM are discussed in detail. They a

27、re Recruitment and Selection, Training, Performance evaluation, and Compensation. 2.1 Recruitment and selectionRecruitment and selection is the screening step for a company to get the right people for the right position from numerous candidates. It is primary important for HR manager to conduct a su

28、ccessful recruiting and selection. Employees with the right skills will do a better job for the company, whilst the wrongly hired employees will be costly, because the company has to offer more training or even to replace them sometimes. To achieve a successful recruiting result, HR managers have to

29、 use one or more recruiting methods which are suitable to the requirement of the company and the opening position. So the effective recruitment has to be tactical, well-designed and systematical as well.Firstly, HR department should develop a candidate pool. Because the more candidates HR has, the m

30、ore selective the company can be in the hiring. If only two candidates apply for two openings, HR manager may have little choice but to hire them. But if 10 or 20 applicants appear, then the HR manager can use various techniques like interviews and tests to screen out all but the best.Most popular r

31、ecruiting methods used to develop a pool of candidates are as follows:1. Internal recruiting. Internal recruiting means recruit candidates from current employees within the company. It often uses job posting to publicize the opening position to all the employees, and listing its attributes like qual

32、ifications, supervisor, working schedule, and pay rate. It is the best way to enhance employees morale by giving them the opportunity of a promotion or a more favorable position. Meanwhile, having been within the company for some time, inside candidates may be more committed to company goals and les

33、s likely to leave. 2. Advertising. Its one of the external recruiting methods. Due to the use of mass media, the advertising method could attract a vast number of candidates. The selection of the best medium local paper, journal, TV, or internet depends on the type of positions. Nowadays, a large an

34、d growing proportion of employers recruit on the internet.3. Executive Recruiters (also known as head hunters). Headhunters are employment agencies specialized in seeking out top-management latent for their clients. They can be quite useful, because they have many contacts with qualified candidates

35、who are currently employed and not actively looking to change jobs. They can also keep firms name confidential until late into the interview process. They can save top management time by doing the preliminary work, such as advertising for the position and initially screening applicants. 4. College R

36、ecruiting. College recruiting means sending an employers representatives to college campuses to prescreen applicants and create an applicant pool from the colleges graduating class. Its an important source of management trainees, promising candidates, and professional and technical employees. In thi

37、s method, recruiters and schools must be carefully chosen. The recruiters should be chosen on the basis of his/her ability of identifying top candidates. The school should be selected by its reputation and performance of previous cooperation with the company.The type of job generally determines what

38、 recruiting source is used. According to a recent survey, for managerial positions, 80% of employers used newspaper ads, 20% used head hunters. For technical jobs, 75% used college recruiting. For recruiting sales person, 80% of companies used newspaper ads. With a pool of candidates, the next step

39、is to select the most suitable person for the job through interview.One-to-one formal interview is probably the most commonly used, but there is also another method named panel interview. The most appropriate method will be chosen according to the real situation.For example, interviewing college stu

40、dents should normally be one-to-one, as college students are likely to be nervous in front of a group of interviewers.The panel interview means the candidate is interviewed simultaneously by a group of interviewers. The panel interview is often used for recruitment of senior positions. The candidate

41、 could be judged from different aspects by experts from different departments.In many modern organizations, the conventional methods of interview, whether it is one-to-one interview or panel interview, become inadequate. Many managers therefore devised additional tests to measure candidates real com

42、petence.The occupationally relevant tests include:1. Attainment tests Designed to measure specific knowledge or skills in a particular field, e.g. a typing test2. Aptitude test Designed to measure specific capabilities such as mechanical or musical ability3. Interest tests Designed to identify areas

43、 of activity particularly attractive to the candidate4. Trainability tests It attempts to measure the interviewees general capacity to learn knowledge or skill. For example, the interviewer could ask interviewee to perform a job-related task after giving the prior instruction to the interviewee.5. W

44、ork samples It is the simulations of the real work situation. In-tray exercise is one form of work samples. It requires the interviewee to prioritize a list of tasks in the tray.6. Work tasks The interviewee is expected to deal with the real work in real situation. 7. Personality tests Some personal

45、ity test instruments, such as questionnaire, could be used. The purpose is to give a personality profile of the interviewee, in order to identify his/her suitability for a particular job.When deciding which tests to use, the reasons for the recruitment must be clear. For example, a new member of des

46、igning department must be selected on the basis of both personality and designing skills, but a technician is more likely to be chosen because of his technical expertise.Finally, after deciding which candidate will be hired according to the results of interviews and tests, it is particularly importa

47、nt to inform candidates of the outcome as quickly as possible. The successful candidate should be notified very immediately. It is frustrating and costly to lose the suitable person if he/she has taken up a job offered from another company. And, the unsuccessful candidates should also be informed qu

48、ickly, because it could build up a good reputation for the company.2.2 Effective trainingOnce employees have been recruited and selected, the training program for them must be conducted from the start to the end during the whole employment period. For employers, training means develop more effective

49、 and efficient workforce for their company. For new or present employees, through training, they acquire knowledge and skills to fulfill their jobs better and better. Training used to focus on teaching technical skills, such as showing a machinist how to operate his/her new machine, a new salesperso

50、n how to sell his/her firms product. However, simply technical training is no longer sufficient for the demand of modern enterprises. Recently, with the rapid technological changes, improved product and service quality, employees need more training in team building, decision making, and communicatio

51、n, as well as technological and computer skills. To conduct a successful training, HR manager should first analyze training needs before designing detailed training plan. Through the needs analysis, they could identify specific job skills that needed to improve work performance and productivity, and

52、 to ensure that the training program will be suited to trainees levels of education, experience, skills, and attitudes.The following methods could be used to analyze training needs:1. Analyzing training needs based on business and HR plans. The training strategy should largely be determined by the c

53、ompanys business and HR strategies and plans, such as plans for using new technology. The result of analyses would indicate the types of skills and competences that may be required in the future, and the numbers of people may be needed.2. Analyzing job. Analyzing job means examining in detail the co

54、ntent of job, the performance standards required, skills and competences needed to perform the job competently.3. Analyzing training needs based on performance reviews. Performance reviews is a prime source of information about employees training needs. Employees with poor performance will need trai

55、ning urgently, while employees with best performance and employees to be promoted will also need training program to further uplift their ability and skills.4. Training surveys. Training surveys assemble all the information obtained from the above-mentioned methods, and provide a comprehensive basis

56、 for the designing of a training program. But it is essential to communicate with employees directly during the process of survey. Through communication, HR manager could well understand employees training needs and get more suggestion from them about the training program.After conducting a successf

57、ul training analysis, HR manager should choose useful and feasible training methods to conduct specific training program. Therere some effective training methods that are often used:1. Demonstration: It is the technique of telling or showing a trainee how to do a job. Its the most commonly used trai

58、ning method. It is so direct that the trainee is actively participated.2. Coaching: It is a one-to-one training technique designed to develop individual skills, knowledge, and attitudes. 3. Job rotation: It aims to broaden employees experience by moving him/her from job to job or department to depar

59、tment. HR manager has to design a program to set down what the trainee is expected to learn in each department or job. A suitable person in each department will see to it that the trainee is given the right experience or opportunity to learn. During the job rotation, the trainees progress will be ch

60、ecked regularly.4. Question and answer technique: It consists of an exchange between trainer and trainees. This method aims at test understanding, stimulate thought, or extend learning. It may be part of a discussion period on a formal management course. 5. Assignment: It is a specific task that all

61、 trainees do, at the request of their trainer or manager. This method may be used as a test at the end of a training session. It may also be given by managers to their subordinates, as a means of extending subordinates experience. 6. Projects: Projects are broader or more complicated tasks that trai

62、nees are asked to complete. The trainer often gives trainees only generalized guidelines. They encourage trainees initiative in seeking and analyzing information, in solving problem, and in getting a desirable result of the project.7. Guided reading: It takes the form of giving books, handouts, or c

63、ompany literature to trainees, and asking them to read and comment on them.8. Lecture: It is used to transfer information from the speaker to audiences with controlled content and timing. 9. Talk: It is a less formal lecture for a smaller group. It gives plenty of time for discussion. This method en

64、courages trainees participation and interest, gives trainees an opportunity of learning from each others, and helps trainees to develop ability of self-expression. More often than not, HR manager uses more than one technique in the training program. For example, when preparing employees for future m

65、anagerial jobs within the company, combined training methods must be used, including job rotation, coaching, action learning, and case studies, outside seminars, university-related programs, role playing, behavior modeling, and in-house development centers.After the completion of training program, the programs success or failu
