concepts. In management we get the people organized and gather to
achieve the some specific goals. In other words,” Get things done by the
people or with the people effectively and effieciently”.Whereas in human
resources management put the person according their skills. In other
words putting the right person at the right place in the organization”. This
is the difference between management and human resource
management .In Personnel and human resource management are
frequently used interchangeably, it is clear that these are two different
aspects. he human resource department head ,once a single individual
heading the personnel function, today may be a vice president sitting on
executives boards and participating in the development of the overall
organization strategy. Personnel management deals with the holidays and
vacations of the employees. Planning, organizing, leading and controlling
are the functions of the management whereas staffing, maintains, training
and development and Motivation are the functions of the human resource
management.

place”.

period of competition and every organization want the right skillful
workers who can complete their works according to the requirements of
this work. HRM specialists are trained in psychology, sociology,

organizations. Through this every one has clear mind what he is going to

C. What activities are involved in the staffing function of HRM?
Ans:-
In staffing we have three functions which are as
Strategic Human Resource Planning
Recruiting
Selection
HR managers exists in the darkness, or for that matter, in a receive model.
Not until organization mission and strategy have been fully developed
human resource management begins to determine human recourse needs.
When an organization plans strategically, it determines its goals and
objectives for a given period of time. All the jobs are analyzed and then
recruitment is started.
“Hiring the appropriate employees for the organization”.
The goal of recruitment is to give enough information about the job to
attract a large number of qualified applicants and simultaneously
discourage the unqualified from applying. The after the recruitment, the
next step which 9s come is the process of Selection.
D. What role does HRM play in the strategic direction of an organization?
Ans:-
HRM play a different role in the strategic direction of the organization. It
helps to shape may events like globalization, technology, workforce
diversity, changing skills requirements ,continuous improvement ,work
process engineering decentralized work sites ,teams ,employee
involvement ,and ethics..HRM tells to the organization how much skill
person are required and what kinds of people are required. In this way it
effects on the organization strategic direction of the organization. HRM
must also serve the organization by determining lowest cost strategies to
its HRM practices it must look for ways to reduce personnel costs and find
more effective mean of offering employee amenities.

is called Line Managers. Now there is a question hoe HRM manager effect
on other manager’s .No drought they affect on the mangers through
different ways. It is the responsibility of HRM manager to stable the other
managers. If HR department hire that person for the mangers post who has
no idea about that post then it will be harmful for the organization. If HR
department hire the marketing manager but he is not fit for the marketing
department, In fact, he has no skill for nay job or he is fit for the finance
department .In these cases loss only come in the part of the organization.
That is why, HRM affects on the other managers.
Next think that it is the part of the HR managers to measure the
performance of the other managers. So in this way they also affect on
them.
F. Explain how HRM Practices differ in small businesses and in an
international setting?

Practices that go into HRM services include rewarding productive work,
creating a flexible, work-friendly environment, properly recruiting and
retaining quality workers, effective communications. Many of the
practices viewed as the latest HRM”fad,”such as 360-degree appraisals.
These all rewards present only in the international organizations .In small
organizations there will be many things will be missing.
No dought if any small whether it is international organization wants to
motivate their employees then they will have to use these practices.
G.Define employee involvement and lists its critical components?
Ans:-
Involving employee means different things to different organizations and
people, but by and large, for today’s workers to be successful, a few
necessary employees’ involvement concepts appear to be accepted. These
are delegation, participative management, work teams, goal setting and
employee training –the empowering of employees.
Organizations use different techniques to involve the employees. An
employee needs certain amounts of authority to make decisions that
Superior Group of Colleges 4
Human Resource Management
directly affect their work. Even though delegation was once perceived as
something that managers did when lower levels of management,
delegation is required at all levels of the organization –in essence, peer
delegation, or using influence without authority. Useful employee
involvement requires demonstrate leadership, as well as supportive
management. Additionally, employees need training and that’s where
HRM can make a valuable contribution.

No dought culture affect of the department of HRM of the any
organization. Because in the organizations employees come from different
cultures ,this thing crate a problem for the HRM.They have different
lifestyles, family needs, and work styles and more important thing they

problems. That is why culture affects on the HRM.

Skill environment affect on HRM because during the hiring a lot of
candidates are called for interview and only selected the who are require

Q.6) Read the article and prepares the one page summary.
Ans:-
In this article that thing has been discussed is all about HR
practices and how these affect on the productivity. Now firms are adopting
the new practices like problem solving teams, enhanced communication
with workers, employment security, and flexibility in job assignments,
training workers for multiple jobs, and greater reliance on incentive pay.
By adopting these practices we can see high level of productivity than do
more traditional approach involving narrow job definitions ,strict work
rules ,and hourly pay with close suopervision.if we apply these practices
on individuals then these practice swill not create nay affect on
productivity,. Two primary results consistently emerge from the empirical
models. First ,certain forms of incentives wage contracts and related
employment practice raise the performance of the production workers,
relative to their performance under the more traditional employment
practices of fixed hourly pay and extensive monitoring by foremen. The
next thing which we have reviews of theories predicts that clusters of
practices due to complementarities among a firm‘s work practices.
Incentive contrary theory addresses the issues of how to motivate
employees hard when their performance cannot be perfectly measured or
monitored. It suggests that sets of complementary HRM practices will be
effective in addressing the kinds of issues that entire often confront when
designing their employment practices.
In particular firms can overcome free-rider problems by developing a
‘Norm” or “culture” of high effort among employees. According too the
Kandel and Lazear some practices can enhance the effectiveness of group
incentive contracts like careful employee selection, indoctrination and
orientation at the time of entry, team oriented work groups ,and other
Superior Group of Colleges 7
Human Resource Management
opportunities for workers and managers to meet.HRm practices ,such as
teamwork ,cooperation in problem solving initiatives ,and pay plans that
require subjective evaluations ,should therefore be complements with
objective pay-for-performance plans ,because the objective pay plans the
firm profitability and thus the value of its reputation. A commitment to
longer term employment relations policies once it makes a job security
pledge.
Productivity effects by the HRM practices like incentive pay schemes, the
use of work teams, and enhanced training for the production
workers.HRM practices have a large effect on the production of the
workers performance, while changes in the individual employment
practices have little or no effect. Incentive pay plans and their related
supporting practices raise worker performance, relative to the effects of
more traditional practices in manufacturing, such as fixed hourly pay.
