OVERVIEW OF HR DIVISION
3.1 Human Resources Management
Human resource management involves all management decisions and
practices that directly affect or influence the people, or human
resources, who work for the organization. In modern years, amplified
concentration has been devoted to how organizations manage Human
Resources. This augmented focus comes from the comprehension that
an organization’s employees facilitate an organization to attain its goals
and the management of these human resources is vital to an
organization’s success.
3.2 Characteristics of Human Resource Management:
(1). Upgrading Manpower:
HRM is basically concerned with the upgrading of manpower working in
an organization. This leads to improvement in the individual
performance of an employee and also corresponding improvement in
the organizational performance.
(2). Stress on Training:
HRM includes various schemes arranged for providing education,
guidance, training and opportunities to learn and develop employees of
all categories and working in different departments. There is an
20
integrated use of sub-systems (training, career developments,
organizational development) in the HRM programme.
(3). Attention to learning and career development:
Learning, self-development, career developments are possible through
HRM programmes. These are the core areas of HRM. Career
development is possible through joining training courses, reading books
and periodicals. Learning and career development raise the capacity of
employees to work at highest levels. They are given higher positions
with monetary benefits.
(4). Organizational Development:
HRM includes organizational development, which includes effective
communication within the organization, coordination of different
activities elimination of conflicts of different types and creation of
orderly atmosphere in the whole organization
(5). Team Spirit:
HRM is basically for developing team spirit in the whole organization.
For this, departments and levels of management are properly
integrated. Team spirit facilitates orderly growth of the organization in
the right direction.
3.3 Need and Importance of Human Resource Management:
(1). To create stable labor force:
21
HRM programmes are needed in order to create stable, efficient,
skilled and matured manpower required by an enterprise for the
present and future period.
(2). To update the quality of manpower:
HRM activities are needed for updating the quality of manpower as per
the growing and changing needs of an enterprise. This avoids
managerial obsolescence. Even the vacancies at - 9 - higher levels can
be filled in internally due to HRM programmes as they provide training
and opportunities of self-development to employees working at lower
levels.
(3). To develop strength for survival:
HRM programmes are necessary for survival in the present competitive
marketing environment. An enterprise can face market competition
only by improving quality, reducing costs and avoiding wastages. All this
is possible through HRM.
(4). To face challenges of technological changes:
Technological changes are taking place rapidly in every area of
business. HRM programmes are needed in order to absorb
technological changes taking place with speed. In fact, introduction of
new technology, computers, automation, etc. will not be possible
unless training is provided to the manpower.
(5). To satisfy the demand of self-development of employees:
HRM is needed to meet the needs of employees in regard to self-
development and career development aspirations. Employees demand,
training facilities, refresher courses, promotions and transfers, career
22
guidance, etc. for their self-development. HRM programmes are
needed to fulfill self-development and career development of
employees.
(6). To meet future manpower needs:
HRM is needed to meet the future manpower needs of the
organization. Executives, managers, supervisors leave the job or retire
due to age factor. Competent juniors must take their positions. HRM is
needed in order to keep ready a team of competent managers as a
second line of defence.
(8). To utilize production capacity fully:
HRM is needed in order to use the available production capacity to the
optimum level. It provides skilled manpower for this purpose.
3.4 Functions of HR
The functions of human resource management are:
1. Staffing
2. Training and Development
3. Motivation
4. Maintenance
By doing all these functions Human resource management complete its
job.
23
Staffing in HRM
Activities in HRM concerned with seeking and hiring qualified
employees is Staffing. A company needs a well-defined reason for
needing individuals who posses specific skills, knowledge and abilities
to specify the job. Employee referrals can produce the best applicants
for two reasons. First, current employees screen applicants before
referring them. Second, current employees believe that their
reputations with the firm will be reflected in the candidates that they
recommend. Recruiting is the initial step of staffing. Recruiting is the
process of locating, identifying, and attracting capable employees.
Many companies are finding new employees on the World Wide Web.
The source that is used should reflect the local labor market, the type
or level of position, and the size of the organization. Now the
second step of Staffing, that is Strategic HR planning. For that a
company plans strategically. They set goals and objectives, these goals
and objectives may lead to the structural changes in the company.
Third step is Selection. This process is attracting qualified applicators
and discouraging the unqualified applicants. By this a company can get
its desired employees of requirement. It has dual focus, attempting thin
out the large set of applications that arrived during the recruiting phase
and to select an applicant who will be successful on the job. To achieve
this goal, companies can use a variety of steps. The employees who are
able to do all the steps and ensure good performance they get the job.
HRM must communicate a variety of information to the applicants,
such as the organization culture.
Under the selection process there are some steps:
24
The company can use these steps to select the employees. With this
process their Staffing job is done. The completed selection process ends
the staffing functions.
25
Training and Development:
Training is one of the important activities of human resource
management. In the training process companies try to motivate and
train the employees in a manner so that they can work more effectively
in the future. Under the training process there are some steps they are
given below:
1. Employee Orientation:
Employee orientation provides new employees with the basic
background information they need to perform their jobs
satisfactorily. Companies arrange an orientation program for the
employees. In an orientation program the employees should feel-
feel welcome
understand the organization in a broad sense
be clear about what the firm expects in terms of work and
behavior
begin the process of socialization
2. Employee Training:
There is some process, method and techniques of employee
training. A company follows the all the steps of training to provide
the employees a good look on their work.
3. Career Development:
The career development stage is given below-
Pre transition: Is simply looking for a job and preparing
oneself for a career.
Transition: An individual is already having a job and
developing oneself for future career or moving to another
career.
26
Preferred area: An individual prefers a specific sector of the
career.
Early stage: First 1-5 years of career is called early career.
Mid career: 5-20 years after the career starts.
Late career: Late career starts after 20 years of job life.
Retirement: And finally after completing the stages of
career and individual decides to retired.
Motivation in HRM
Motivation is to inspire people to work, individuals in such as to
produce best results. It is the willingness to exert high level of effort
towards organizational goals, conditioned by the efforts and ability to
satisfy some individual needs. An important part of the retention of
staff, reducing staff turnover and minimizing absenteeism at work is
ensuring that staff are properly motivated. The wage should be
increased, the facilities should be insured and social security should be
confirmed. These are the types of common motivational ways. Staff
motivation is the cornerstone of open, flexible and caring management
culture, which the Government aims to establish through HRM. To put
it into practice, “open” means not only to listen to staff suggestions and
opinions, but also to empower staff, accept their constructive criticisms
and use their suggestions. To be “flexible”, we may need to change the
traditional ways of doing things. As far as staff motivation is concerned,
27
the biggest challenge perhaps is to stop focusing on problems and the
guilty party (police behavior) and start looking for those responsible for
things gone right (coach behavior). “Caring” calls for a human leader
who would give emotional support to individuals and at the same time
attend to the overall emotional needs of team members – which
include treating them all in a fair and impartial manner. Today’s
employees want a respect that can be seen as involvedness in decision
that will affect them. Listening to the employees is a way of Motivation.
All the motivation functions focus on one primary goal, to have some
competent and adapted employees with up-to-date skills, knowledge
and abilities, exerting high energy levels.
Maintenance of employees
To maintain the employees of a company must look after the
employee-
Health and Safety: For employees health and safety there HR
policy need to be very clear to all staff so that they feel safe to
work here. They can put their attention and productivity properly
towards the task.
Communication: The communication between the employees and
top level management should be clear and transparent. There
should no gap between top level management and low level
management.
Employee’s relation: Employees should be committed to their
companies and the companies also should understand the needs
and wants of the employees. In some companies employees and
labors create labor union for better relationship among the
workers and employees.

to identify and hire those with a greater likelihood of success in a job.
The objective of selection decision is basically picking an applicant from
a pool of applicants who has the appropriate qualifications and
competency to do the job. The selection procedure cannot be effective
until and unless-
Requirements of the job to be filled have been clearly specified
Employee specifications (physical, mental, social, behavioral etc)
have been clearly specified
Candidates for screening have been attracted
Selection process is preferable because:
It is easier for applicant as they can send their applications to a
single centralized department/agency
It facilitates contacts with applicants because issues pertaining to
employment can be cleared through one central location.
It helps operating managers to concentrate on their operating
responsibilities. This is helpful during peak operating period
It can provide for better selection because hiring is done by
specialist trained in staffing techniques
The applicant is better assured of consideration for a greater
variety of jobs
Hiring cost may be cut because duplication of efforts is minimized
35
Selection Process:
The selection process consists of the following steps:
1. Application form:
Many companies formulate their own style of application form
depending upon the size and nature of business carried on, type
and level of the job etc. Information is generally required on the
following items in the form: personal background, educational
attainments, work experience references etc
2. Written test :
Written test is conducted for the qualified candidates after they
are screened on the basis of application form to measure the
candidates ability towards the job, his aptitude reasoning,
knowledge in various disciplines, English language etc
3. Preliminary Interview:
The next step that tag along the selection procedure is a
preliminary interview wherein the applications are scrutinized so
as to eliminate unqualified applications. Preliminary Interviews
are short. This interview thus provides information about the
candidate related to the job or personal specifications
4. Selection Test:
After passing through the interview the next stage that applicant
has to prove himself on are the selection tests. There are different
types of selection tests for different levels of the organization and
36
that too is further differentiated within different types of
organizations. Some of the most common and well-known tests
that an applicant has to go through are;
a. Aptitude test
b. Personality tests: This is common mostly for the higher levels of
management are given to measure a prospective employee‘s
motivation to function in a particular working environment.
c. Internal test: To measure an individual‘s activity preferences.
d. Graphology Test: is an art wherein the individual‘s handwriting is
seen and accordingly his personality traits are derived by the way
he writes.
e. Polygraph Test: Are designed to ensure accuracy of the
information given in the applications
f. Medical Tests: Reveal physical fitness of the candidate
g. Drug test: Help to ensure the presence of illegal or Performance-
affecting drugs
5. References and background checks:
Many employer request names, address, and telephone numbers
or references for the purpose of verifying information and,
perhaps, gaining additional background information on an
applicant.
6. Selection Decision:
After collecting data from all the preceding steps, this is the most
crucial step in the entire selection process. The main difference
between the preceding stages and this is that former is used to
short list the number of candidates and later one is to make a
final decision from the pool of individuals who pass the tests,
37
interviews and reference checks. The view of line manager will be
generally considered in the final selection because it is he/she
who is responsible for the performance of the new employee. The
HR manager plays a crucial role in the final decision.
7. Physical Examination:
After the selection decision and before the job offer is made, the
candidate is required to undergo a physical fitness test. The result
of the medical fitness test is recorded in a statement and is
preserved in the personal records. The main objectives of this test
are as follows:
To detect if the individual carries any infectious diseases.
To determine whether an applicant is physically fit to
perform the work
It helps to determine if there are any physical capabilities
which differentiate successful and less successful
employees.
Medical checkup protects applicants with health defects
from undertaking work that could be detrimental to them or
might otherwise endanger the employer‘s property.
Last, but not the least such examination will protect the
employer from workers compensation claims that are not
valid because the injuries or illness was present when the
employee was hired.
8. Job Offer
The next step is selection process is Job offer for those applicants
who had passed the previous stage. Job offer is made through a
letter of appointment. Such a letter usually contains the date by
which the appointee must report on duty.
38
9. Contract of employment:
After the job offer is made and the candidates accept the offer,
certain documents need to be executed by the employer and the
candidate. One such document is Attestation form. This form
contains vital details about the candidate, which are
authenticated and attested by him/her, which could be used for
future reference. Another document is contract of employment.
This document contains the terms and conditions of employment
like designation, perks, term of job and so on. The information
written in the contract may vary according to the level of the job.
The main drawback of the contract is that it is difficult to enforce
them.
10. Concluding the selection process:
The selection process will not end with executing the employment
contract. The step is reassuring the candidates who have not been
selected. Such candidates must be told that they were not
selected, not because of any serious deficiencies in their
personalities, but because their profiles did not match the
requirements of the organization
11. Evaluation of selection process:
The broad test if the effectiveness of the selection process is the
quality of the personnel is hired. An organization must have

CONCLUSION
From the above discussion it can conclude such a way that since human
resource management is a continuously practicing issue so it plays a
significant role on organizations overall performance. If an organization
wants to gain full benefit from human resource management it should
follow all the sections of HRM. Few persons are recruited for its
operations and performances. But it will expand soon or later and then
the number of HR employee may not be enough to run the company.
Committed and trustworthy employees are the most significant factors
to becoming an employer of choice; it is no surprise that companies
and organizations face significant challenges in developing energized
and engaged workforces. However, there is abundance of research to
demonstrate that increased employee commitment and trust in
leadership can positively impact the company’s bottom line. In fact, the
true potential of an organization can only be realized when the
productivity level of all individuals and teams are fully aligned,
committed and energized to successfully accomplish the goals of the
organization. Thus, the objective of every company should be to
improve the desire of employees to stay in the relationship they have
with the company.
