Researching the Effectiveness of Human Resources
Overview
Businesses protect themselves against legal considerations by ensuring all employees are treated fairly and by remaining in compliance with regulatory requirements. Many organizations utilize a human resources department to monitor the activities involving human capital. The human resources manager engages in the development of human capital from a strategic viewpoint while guarding various aspects of employee rights, morale, placement, and compensation. Many of the human resources manager's decisions are guided by regulatory requirements.
The purpose of this assignment is to compare and contrast the necessity of a human resources manager where different organizational sizes are a consideration.
