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

By: David E. Guest
Human resource management (HRM) comprises a set of policies designed to maximize organizational integration, employee commitment, flexibility and quality of work. Within this model, collective industrial relations have, at best, only a minor role. Despite the apparent attractions of HRM to managements, there is very little evidence of any quality about its impact. Furthermore very few UK organizations appear to practise a distinctive form of HRM, although many are moving slowly in that direction through, for example, policies of employee involvement.

-----I don't agree with him that There is a "little evidence of any quality" about its impact, because the impact of HRM in this generation is really effective.


By:Ryan Allis
Personnel management is concerned with the effective use of the skills of people. They may be salespeople in a store, clerks in an office, operators in a factory, or technicians in a research laboratory. In a business, personnel management starts with the recruiting and hiring of qualified people and continues with directing and encouraging their growth as they encounter problems and tensions that arise in working toward established goals.Human resource management is a balancing act. At one extreme, you hire only qualified people who are well suited to the firm's needs.

-----Yah, personnel management focus more on the people within the company, while HRM balance all the personnel data, and other company document related on the management of personnel.

In any organization, there has to be someone concerned with the welfare and performance of persons who are a part of the operation. When an individual or a team of individuals takes on this task of seeing to programs and setting policies that impact everyone associated with the company, they are engaged in the process of personnel management, sometimes referred to as human resources management.

-----The author defined HRM and Personnel management the same, the personnel management was briefly define. It don't generally state the definition of Personnel management. It only state the pesonnel performance.

Storey regard HRM as a “radically different philosophy and approach to the management of people at work” (1989: 4). In this view, HRM provides a completely new form of managing personnel and can therefore be regarded as a “departure from [the] orthodoxy” (Storey 1989: Cool of traditional personnel management

-----The author defines HRM is the new for of personnel management. HRM is the revise form of managing the personnel in a company.. but then I agree in his definition.


By: Bnet
personnel management focuses on the individual rather than taking a collective approach. Responsibility for human resource management is often devolved to line management. It is characterized by an emphasis on strategic integration, employee commitment, workforce flexibility, and quality of goods and services.
