Human resources is all about people. In today's business environment, companies have started to recognise that their staff are their greatest asset. Human resources is about managing people and is now a critical function of modern business.
Written by Michelle Nolan - an experienced Human Resources Manager and Recruitment Manager - the main theme is to provide career-seekers with an insight into the world of Human resources. This will provide direction for both school-leavers and "career changers" to pursue and (hopefully) achieve a career in Human resources.
Issues that are addressed include: job descriptions - every conceivable type of "people management"; from recruitment, training, industrial relations, health & safety, and ongoing staff performance, etc.; courses and education requirements; remuneration; interviews with prominent people in the Human resources; handy referrals for places to find listed jobs; and relevant associations and professional bodies.
