(HRM )assignment 10 HRM VS Personnel Management


Look for various definitions of personnel management and human resource management and their authors and sources (minimum of 5). Critique each.


Human resource management (HRM)
is the strategic and coherent approach to the management of an organization's most valued assets - the people working there who individually and collectively contribute to the achievement of the objectives of the business.[1] The terms "human resource management" and "human resources" (HR) have largely replaced the term "personnel management" as a description of the processes involved in managing people in organizations.[1] In simple sense, HRM means employing people, developing their resources, utilizing, maintaining and compensating their services in tune with the job and organizational requirement.

The Human Resources Management (HRM)
function includes a variety of activities, and key among them is deciding what staffing needs you have and whether to use independent contractors or hire employees to fill these needs, recruiting and training the best employees, ensuring they are high performers, dealing with performance issues, and ensuring your personnel and management practices conform to various regulations. Activities also include managing your approach to employee benefits and compensation, employee records and personnel policies. Usually small businesses (for-profit or nonprofit) have to carry out these activities themselves because they can't yet afford part- or full-time help. However, they should always ensure that employees have -- and are aware of -- personnel policies which conform to current regulations. These policies are often in the form of employee manuals, which all employees have.

Personnel management
Determining company policies and procedures as they relate to personnel is another important aspect of the personnel management process. HR functions often include drafting vacation, sick leave, and bereavement policies that apply to all employees. The personnel management team is also often responsible for managing any healthcare program provided to the employees as well.
One aspect of company organization that needs the input of effective personnel management is the drafting of a company handbook. Establishing operation policies and procedures, requirements for employment, commendation and disciplinary procedures, and even something as simple as a dress code has to be compared with state and federal guidelines before the handbook is ready for release to the company at large. Personnel managers and the HR staff are ideal for drafting and reviewing the company handbook.
Sometimes overlooked in the course of personnel management is the emotional welfare of the employees. Increasingly, more personnel managers understand that a well-adjusted employee is an asset to the company. To this end, many people in charge of personnel management try to provide opportunities for employees who are in need of counseling to receive support from the company.

Critique:
As I have read both fragments I thought that they are all the same but then when I had read it I found that they aren’t, but they have a connected to one another.Personnel are part of the human resource management that concern about the employee’s performances ,the recruitement employee and all concern about their behavior ,in short people involves in personnel management can easily psycho people, they are hired by the company to analyze how person are in need by the company where they can found out easily the characteristics of the employee.The personnel management also is concern about the analyzing the state of the company ,whether it is in down or ups side.Not all in human resource management department in the company are in personnel management.
Human resource management has a big role to the company ,they have wide role to the company .They are the one who holds every employees in the department, the are also concern utilizing, maintaining and compensating their services in tune with the job and organizational requirement. They are also concern about the salary of the employee.One of the part of human resource is personnel management .
