Abstract:
For an overview of the field, this paper will examine the HRM function from a number of different perspectives. First, the evolution of the HRM function from a historical perspective will provide an understanding of the forces which have molded and defined present activities. Second, an environmental perspective will shed light on the external forces which continually pressure and constrain these activities. Third, a strategic perspective explores the role of the HRM function in the strategy of the organization. Fourth, an international perspective examines the problems and opportunities that face the HRM function in what is fast becoming a global marketplace. Finally, an evaluation perspective will discuss the ways in which human resources activities can be evaluated as to their usefulness toward aiding in the attainment of organizational goals.
