Common Human Resource Challenges - 01

Introduction

As far as Human Resource management is concerned, I would say that HRM can play pivotal and constructive role in an organization towards the success in spite of the fact that there are many challenges which can be seen in the volatile business environment. Furthermore HRM has contributed massively for the sustainable development of an organization all over the world being very critical area when it comes to analytical approach at a time when problematic situations are on –going.



What HRM is……………?

In fact, I would like to bring your attention about the definitions available according to time and motion studies, Human resource management (HRM) is concerned with all aspects of how people are employed and managed in organizations. It covers the activities of strategic HRM, human capital management, knowledge management, corporate social responsibility, organization development, resourcing (workforce planning, recruitment and selection and talent management), learning and development, performance and reward management, employee relations, employee well-being and the provision of employee services. (Armstrong, 2009).


However, when it comes to common Human Resource challenges, Issues such as cash flow, competition and revenue growth are top of mind for small business owners and their teams. Along with these challenges comes another area many companies struggle with human resource management.


Human resource management (HRM) includes:
  • Job design and analysis
  • Workforce planning
  • Training and development
  • Performance management
  • Compensation and benefits
  • Legal issues
HRM can be a challenge for small businesses especially, which typically don’t have an HR department to rely on. They may be limited to one HR person, or this responsibility may still belong to the CEO. Regardless, small business owners need to understand the challenges facing them so they’re prepared to tackle HR issues as their company, and workforce, grows.

Contemporary Human Resource challenges are arising since entire world is changing and moreover simultaneously challengers are getting higher and higher.
