{"product_id":"introduction-to-human-resource-management-2","title":"INTRODUCTION TO HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT","description":"\u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003eThe field of human resource management (HRM) has grown significantly over the last 50 years. Although HRM is relatively new to the South African business environment, many companies started employing personnel managers (later to become known as HR managers) to head up personnel departments during the 1980s, primarily to help employers deal with the industrial action of trade unions. Their role has since expanded way beyond that. These days, HR managers play an important role in ensuring that companies utilise their human resources optimally.\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eIntroduction to human resource\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003emanagement\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eprovides a basic understanding of the principles of HRM and how it contributes to achieving organisational goals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eIntroduction to human resource management\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eexamines the essential aspects of the practice of HRM in the modern workplace.
