AimThis unit provides an introduction to the concepts and practices of human resource managementwithin the United Kingdom and focuses on the management of recruitment, retention andemployment cessation.• Unit abstractRecruiting and retaining staff of the right caliber contributes to the achievement of organisationalpurposes. Staff must make a valued contribution to the work of the organisation. Eventually theywill leave, more often than not because they find alternative employment or retire. Occasionally,however, employment has to be terminated. This unit considers how human resourcemanagement deals with these aspects of working. However, the focus of human resourcemanagement has moved beyond personnel management towards a more proactive approachthat, in addition to the traditional roles associated with staff management, also considers how toget the best people and the best out of people so that they work in roles and ways that areclosely aligned to organisational objectives. This often leads to the assertion by many seniormanagers that ‘Our employees are our most valuable resource’.Human resource management takes place against a background of organisational needs, policiesand procedures that are themselves shaped by legal and regulatory requirements. The unittherefore gives consideration to the national and European legislation that has, for example, seenthe introduction of a range of anti-discriminatory legislation, the significance of which can beseen regularly in high profile and often very expensive court cases. Organisations with effectivehuman resource management policies, processes and practices will have committed, skilledemployees who contribute effectively to the organisation. In competitive business contexts this isa significant contribution to maintaining a competitive advantage.
