| Synopsis: |
This new text provides a thought provoking, critical, yet accessible introduction to Human Resource Management. The book is divided into two parts; the first part, Fundamentals of HRM, provides an analysis of the core elements of HR practice, whilst the second part, Contemporary Themes and Issues addresses key areas of rising importance in HRM practice. Each chapter provides a critical review of the topic bringing together theoretical and empirical material in a clear and engaging manner. The emphasis is on analysis and insight, but at the same time the authors look at the implications of HRM research and theory development for practice. Each chapter is accompanied by a combination of case studies, role-plays and exercises for students. |
