ISBN: 9780999554753.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHuman Resource Management (HRM) is a set of decisions systems that organizations can design and implement\nto increase the performance and productivity of their workforce. The major activities in HRM are\nrecruitment, selection, training, measuring performance, and compensating workers for their performance.\nThe first two of these, recruitment and selection, focus on bringing high-ability individuals into the organization\nand placing them in the appropriate jobs. Everyone agrees that having high-ability employees is\nessential to a successful organization. Recruitment activities inform appropriately skilled applicants external\nto the organization about available positions within the organization. Successful recruitment presents information\nabout the organization and the job to people in such a way that they become interested in possible\nemployment. Recruitment should result in applications from people who have the appropriate abilities for\nthe available job. Selection is the set of activities that gathers systematic information from the applicants\nand identifies those with the highest ability levels in order to offer employment. Training encompasses the\nactivities that both the new employees and existing employees complete in order to further develop the most\nimportant abilities for the job. In the present global, competitive economy, excellent and frequent training is\nnecessary to make sure that employees can continue high performance. Measuring performance and compensating workers are the two fundamental principles for motivating employees. Measuring performance\nclearly specifies to workers the main outcomes of their work. It also makes goal setting possible, which\nresearch has found to be highly motivating in itself. Compensation should be designed so that employees\nare rewarded at levels reflective of their performance. Think of this as the application of the psychological\nprinciple of reward\/reinforcement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"wessex, inc.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45254077087797,"sku":"ByrdShop_0999554751","price":147.1,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780999554753_af91f789-a547-4583-966c-faa149173565.jpg?v=1779953754","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/human-resource-selection-9780999554753","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
