Chapter 2: Human Resource Management of IIDFC.

2.1 Defining Human Resource Management.

Human Resource Management (HRM) is both an academic theory and a business

practice that addresses the theoretical and practical techniques of managing a workforce.

The theoretical discipline is based primarily on the assumption that employees are

individuals with varying goals and needs, and such should not be thought of as basic

business resources, such as trucks and filing cabinets. The field takes a positive view of

workers, assuming that virtually all wish to contribute to the enterprise productively, and

that the main obstacle to their endeavors are lack of knowledge, insufficient training, and

failures of process.

HRM is seen by practitioners in the filed as a more innovative view of workplace

management than the traditional approach. Its techniques force the managers of an

enterprise to express their goals with specificity so that they can be understood and

undertaken by the workforce and to provide the resource needed for them to successfully

accomplish their assignments. As such, HRM techniques, when properly practiced, are

expressive of the goals and operating practices of the enterprise overall.

Nowadays, the more traditional synonyms such as personnel management are

often used in a more restricted sense to describe those activities that are necessary in the

recruiting of a workforce, providing its members with payroll and benefits, and

administrating their work-life needs. These activities can require regulatory knowledge

and effort, and enterprise can benefit from the recruitment and development of personnel

with these specific skills.

The goal of human resource management is to help an organization to meet

strategic goals by attracting, and maintaining employees and also to manage them

effectively. The basic premise of the academic theory of HRM is that humans are not

machines; therefore it is needed to have an interdisciplinary examination of people in the

workplace. Fields such as psychology, industrial and organizational psychology,

sociology, and critical theories: postmodernism, post-structuralism play a major role.

medical allowances, entertainment allowances, etc. and the total salary. These are the pay

slips which are given individually to all the employees of IIDFC for their confirmation,

and based on the pay checks are given to them.

* CV Sorting:

During the period of my internship, IIDFC has decided to recruit four officers for

four different posts. More than one thousand CVs have been submitted by the interested

candidates. Among all the CVs the specific CVs for the exact posts are sorted out, along

with checking the information in the CVs which fulfills the requirement of the particular

posts, for example, required qualification, experience, etc. After sorting the CVs are sent

to the recruitment board for the selection. Among those twenty five CVs are selected for

each post. The detail information of those candidates is entered into the database for

further use of the recruitment board.

* Computerizing the salary information of the employees:

Till 2009 IIDFC had no computerized system for the salary information of each

employee. All the information was saved manually in hard copies. From the beginning of

2010 IIDFC has started to store the salary information in the computer database system.

Since IIDFC started its business, all the salary information was saved in hard copies and

according to those copies the information is fed into the computer database system.

Chapter 5: Conclusion.

It was very finicky to work in the environment of one of the largest financial

institutions in Bangladesh. IIDFC provides one of the best financial services to their

customers and also their employee that is conducted by HR Division. By working in the

HR department the knowledge was learnt would be helpful enough to sustain with real

world situation.
