Riassunto

This exciting new introductory text in Human Resource Management moves beyond a prescriptive approach to provide a holistic overview of the role of HRM in its contemporary context. Acknowledging and reflecting upon key trends in HRM, the labor market and the broader economy, the author offers critical discussion of the issues surrounding HRM both theoretically and practically, as well as at a national and international level. The book is split into three sections of HRM in Context; HRM in Practice; and Contemporary Issues.
