DESCRIPTION
Human Resource Management is the design of formal systems in an organization to ensure the effective and efficient use of human talent. These formal systems should generate activities that involve the utilization and development of an organization's resources which include personnel, technical equipment, and policies. Thereby, an organization is equipped with essential elements to facilitate individual, groups and teams with achieving stated goals. The study of HRM is informed by the behavioral and social sciences which includes psychology, economics, law, anthropology and sociology. In this course emphasis is given to the HR theory which underpins HR practices. Therefore, special attention is given to identifying the gap between HR theory and HR practices in an organization context, this will include contemporary topics such as Workplace Diversity, Ethics and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). Thus, a variety of theories will be explained.
