Video 1
Human Resource management has evolved from simple hiring, firing and compensation employees. Today’s managers fulfill a variety of roles that require knowledge and competencies in areas that were once foreign to personnel managers who were only situated with using employees as just another resource that they hired and fired when necessary. Human resource managers now have ten professional areas that are used to identify and guide their services created by the Chartered Institute of personnel Management. These are: organizational design, service delivery and information, resources and talent planning, employees’ engagement and planning and reward etc. Human resource management is core to an organization management operation because it now understands that people are important asset to a firm and must be valued empowered and have some level of commitment to their organization; this can only be possible through proper HR management.

UNIT 21

LEARNING OUTCOME: Understand the Difference between Personnel Development and Human Resiurce Management.

Ques 1: What is Human Resource Management?
Based on discussion held in class on September 12, 2016, my selected multiple choice answer is D. The strategic, integrated and coherent approach, to the development and well-being of the people working in organizations.

Qes 2: Explain two differences between human resource management and personnel management.

According to [Muhammed] 2016, personnel management is a routine function while human resource management is a strategic function. My understanding from this is that personnel management has a set procedure or practice to follow while human resource acts according to the need of the organization in that focus is mainly on the development of the organization.
Also, personnel management is a traditional approach while human resource is a modern approach[Surbhi, 2015]. Whilst personnel management is traditional, human resource is wider in that it adds to the traditional aspect personnel management.

Ques 3: Discuss the advantages of organizations practicing human resource management.

The advantages of organization practising HRM are many. HRM is monitored by qualified specialists who know technnology and HRM functional and tactical process can manage compliance with federal and state laws, streamline processes for recruitment and selection, and produce analysis, data and reports for internal and external use. Other advantages of HRM include the ease of use for qualification computer technology specialists, accuracy of information and the ability to perform HR audits using any combination of parameters[Mayhew, 2016].
Another advantage of HRM is cost effective, making them reasonable for any kind of organization. Apart from saving costs and reform business process, HRM helps business concentrate on their core processes, without having to divert their attention to keeping their staff happy [Slideshare.net, 2016].

Video Review

Based on the video that I watched, I can say that Transformation of Personnel Management to Human Resource Management which was foreign to many in the past is now a modern approach that is used in organization in managing the people. It is no longer hiring and firing. It was developed in the united States in the 1980's. Human resource management sees the people as the most important asset that must be valued. empowered and committed. It also outlined ten professional areas, five of which are service delivery and information, organizational design, organizational development, resources and talent planning and learning and talent development. Human Resource which was once seeing as hiring and firing is now the effectiveness of an organization and is not only for Human Resource manager but also for all managers to apply [Salvatore et al. [2005].

UNIT 21
LEARNING OUTCOME ONE: Understand the Difference between Personnel Management and Human Resource Management.

Assessment Criteria AC 1.1
Distinguish between Personnel Management and Human Resource Management

1. What is human resource management

Human resource management is a strategic, integrated and coherent approach, to the development and well-being of the people working in organizations.

2. Explain two differences between human resources management and personnel management.

Human resource management is an updated version of personnel management.
Studies have shown by that one of the main differences between the two is;
[i] According to [Brighthubpm.com, 2012] personnel management has a traditional approach, which is merely a predominantly record-keeping function and focuses on manpower planning, recruitment, job and so forth, while human resource management integrates the traditional approach with a modern one, to corporate goals and strategies and is more people-centred in the organizational development activities.
[ii] Another difference between the two as stated by [Accountlearning.blogspot.com, n.d.] is that personnel management is concerned with personnel manager, while human resource management is concerned with all level of managers from the top to bottom.

3. Discuss the advantages of organizations practicing human resource management.

Having a strategic vision is key for human resource management to achieve its goals. Any organization that has a human resource strategy will see many advantages for the company such as:
Team-building - [Bradley, 2016] nicely put it when he said, human resource management foster a sense of team spirit and camaraderie within the organization. Input from managers, employees and customers plays a big part in the building of any organization and that’s why open communication is very important.
Another advantage is according to [Harrods, n.d.] is meeting the personal/psychological needs of employees, such as the need to feel that you can do something well, the need to be a part of a group and to be respected and encouraged by others. The human resource management can help them to fulfill their needs with non-financial rewards such as promotion, giving them a chance to make decision, contributing to a team and to be assigned to tasks.

Transformation of Personnel Management to Human Resource

After viewing the video posted by [Salvatore et al, 2005], my summation of it is that personnel management have now been transformed to human resource management. Days gone by personnel management was just about dealing with files, hiring, firing and compensation. This has been shifted to the human resource system which deals with knowledge and competencies. The human resource management came on stream in the 1980s in the USA with the philosophy that people are an organizations most valuable asset. Unlike personnel management which view people as its resource, hence the hiring and firing perception. Today human resource management has a more modern approach with a number of roles and functions, namely; service delivery and information, organization design, organizational development, resourcing and talent planning, employee engagement/relations, performance rewards and insights strategy solutions. In conclusion, the proactive approach for organizations through human resource management is more effective and more trustworthy and is for all levels of managers.
