• And HR Manager utilize them as • Critical investment• And create and environment in which strategy is

likely to emerge

Page 8: Shrm perspective

LOGOHISTORY AND Origins of HRM

• HRM Existed in one form or another since the beginning of time informally .• Personnel Management in the UK and US developed earlier than in Australia due to

mass production following industrial revolution,• The concentration of workers focus pubic attention upon condition of employment and

enable workers to collectively achieve better conditions.• Early 1900s this led to growth of trade unionism and IR systems.• Govt in UK and US passed a series of laws to regulate the hours of work, to

establish minimum wages and to protect workers from unhealthy working conditions.

• Theories developed and applied by both HR Specialist and General Management reflect:– Changes attitude to jobs– Work process and – Organizational structures

Page 9: Shrm perspective

LOGOHISTORY AND Origins of HRM • The classical school , puts emphasis on the

– Job itself– Efficient adaptation of workers to work processes

• The Behavioral School focuses on – workers themselves– Satisfaction of their needs– To achieve greater organizational productivity

• Subsequent /later management theories attempt to build on earlier ideas to benefit both workers and their organization, particular industries, economic and social situations.

• Relevance to HRM is twofold – First Personnel management has historically developed into HRM by incorporating

Management theories– Second a sound knowledge of these theories can Assist HR Managers to practice.

Management Theories and

Impact on HRM

Page 11: Shrm perspective

LOGOClassical Management Theory (Scientific Management)

• This theory of management asserts that:– Jobs can be scientifically analyzed– Employs can be scientifically selected– Training ensures jobs and employee fit– Management and employee relationships

should be friendly, cooperative and productive

Fredrick W.Taylor (1856 – 1915) employed this theory in his factory

By incorporating earlier ideas ofRobert Owen (1771 -1858) about The natural cooperation b/w management and employees.

Taylor work has been developed by Henry L.Gantt and Frank and Lillian Gibreth.

Including the Idea of productivity bonuses and work redesign.

TIME and MOTION studies are example

Page 12: Shrm perspective

LOGOClassical Organization Theorists

• The work of Henry Fayol and Max Weber exemplifies these theories.

• Fayol identified the major management functions as those of – Planning– Organizing– Commanding– Coordinating and – Controling

• Later theorist reduce these to– Planning, Organizing, Leading and

Controlling (POLC)

Webber (1864 – 1920 )Classified organizations byAuthority structures as

• Chrismatic• Traditional or Rational - legal

Page 13: Shrm perspective

LOGOTransitional Theorists

• Marry Parker Follet (1868 – 1933),• Chester l.Barnard (1886 – 1961) and• Lyndall F.Urwick ( 1891 – 1983) • Represent traditional Human Relation theorists.

LOGOBehavioral School (Industrial Psychology)

• This approach attempts to apply psychological research to the – Employers vs employee relationship

• Hugo Munsterberg ( 1863-1916) applied– Personality research to employee

selection,– Work design and – Training program

Walter Dill Scott and James Mckeen Cattell Developed Personality Tests for the recruitment of sales and managerial Staff

Elton Mayo (1880-1949) initiated human relations (Hawthorn Study – Hawthorn works US Electric Company)Study of the relationship b/w satisfaction of employee needs and productivity, Concluded that

employees reacted positively to management concern (effective communication and employee participation in mgt policies and procedure)

Drive from his work ( QWL, Abraham Maslow, Fredrick Herzberg)

Page 15: Shrm perspective

LOGOManagement Science: (Quantitative School)

• This approach measuring the – Outcomes of Jobs and – Work system

• Application include– Production Schedule– Productivity strategies– Consequent management

Planning– Control Mechanisms

Integrated Theory: (Systems Theory)

• The System approach sees organization as • Unified system with specific inputs and

outputs.• Important Features include

• Interaction b/w Jobs• Technology• Environment• Control mechanism

• HR Aspects include communication between the • Various subsystem• Coordination with Input /output• Effective interaction b/w employee and

technological systems

Page 16: Shrm perspective

LOGOContingency Theory

• This theory developed by the writers such as – Tom burns– Henry Mintzberg– Heshey and – Blanchard

• Contends that every organization and every environment is different and therefore requires a different approach– Scientific management– Organization theory– Behavioral science or management science

may or may NOT Apply according to business circumstances.

Excellence Theory

• Popular in 1980s is based upon• Research studies of Tom Peters

and Bob Waterman.• These researchers argue that

productivity and profitability are the • Direct result of excellent

employment management• Which is largely based on

Employee centered approach• Due to decline of identified excellent

companies • Research has been discredited

• Proposed by Dr.W.Edward Deming, Total quality management, effectively applied in – Japanese and US industry after the 2nd world war

• Deming advocate the following Principles of Management– Constancy/loyalty of Purpose toward

product/service improvement– Maintain ongoing improvement / cost reduction– Adopt new philosophy– Adopt Meaningful measure of quality– Adopt modern training method – Setup education and training programs– Statistically validate quality

• drive out fear

• Remove barriers

• Breakdown organizational

barriers through team work

• Eliminate arbitrary numerical

goals / visible figures

STAGES IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF HRM

• Wayne Cascio divides the development in HRM in the US into three Distinct Phases– File Maintenance Phase Until 1960s– The Govt accountability phase during 1960s to 70s– The gaining and sustaining competitive advantage

phase 1980s to 1990

• Slightly different perspective Stella Nkomo describes– Defensive stage – Administrative / Anti Union– Manpower Planning as derived demand (beginning

of labour needs forecasting, early recruitment and training program)

– SHRM

Page 20: Shrm perspective

LOGOIn Australia HRM Development Stages

Welfare and administrative (1900 to 1940s)

Welfare, admin, staffing and training personnel management and Industrial Relation (1940s to Mid 1970s)

HRM (Mid 1970s to 1990s)

HRM in the new Millennium(2000)

Page 21: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Stage One– Welfare , Administrative(1900 to 1940)

• Personnel functions were performed by– Supervisors– Line managers– Early specialist (e.g. Recruitment officer, trainers, welfare officers) long before the

establishment of HRM.• The early management theories contributed ideas later incorporated into

– Personnel management theory & practice• Scientific management helped to refine personnel management through

– Job design– Structured reward system– Scientific selection techniques

• Behavioral science added– Psychological testing and motivational systems

• Management science contributed to – Performance management program

Page 22: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Stage Two– Welfare , Administration, staffing and Training(1940 to Mid1970)

• The beginning of a specialist and more professional approach to – Personnel management in Australia

• The 2nd world war had significant impact – Business ,Economy, Labor market – Increase in problems & performance of existing employees– Financial, Social and family pressure hinder the productivity and output of such

employees who replace their brothers/husbands in military• When the war ended (Industrial welfare division)

– Returning soldiers flooded labor market with few skills– Employers encouraged to promote the welfare functions/ services– Offering emergency training as well as Psychological testing and leadership

• Many organizations began to employee specialist to conduct– Recruitment – Training and – Welfare activities – Taking away these functions from Line Managers

Page 23: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Stage Two– Welfare , Administration, staffing and Training(1940 to Mid1970)

• This 2nd stage can be characterized by – Expansion of necessary personal functions

• Welfare, recruitment, selection, training • A gradual move from specialist to more general approaches

– Adoption of overseas theories– Including scientific, behavioral and human relations– Emergence of professional association and courses

• The resurgence / reappearance of Unionism can not be overlooked during this decade. Unions in a buoyant /floating economy – Focused on pay and work conditions issues– Forcing personnel activities to include industrial relations considerations (IR)

• Earlier established Complex IR structure developed during this period• Functions performed by personnel specialist expanded during this period• personnel specialist were Isolated from one another

– without any consideration of their impact on overall organizational effectiveness

Page 24: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Stage Three– HRM(Mid1970 TO 1990s)

• Personnel Management was becoming – HRM– Representing a change towards the integration of personnel

function– Strategically focused on overall organizational fucntions

• Concepts of HRM correspondence with– US models and British Development

• Unlike previous periods, this stage represents the– Integration of personnel management and– Industrial relation into a coordinated and strategic approach to the

management of the organizations employee• SHRM Can be perceived as MACRO Perspective (strategic and

policies)• HRM represent MICRO Approach (e.g. activities, functions and

processes)• SHRM and HRM both are intertwined

Page 25: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Stage Four– HRM in the new Millennium(2000…)

• It is difficult to predict nature of HRM in future• HRM Theory and Practice will be transformed as a consequence of

– Globalization– New technology– Associated Fundamental changes in the nature of work and Job

• At this stage it is suggested that earlier concepts of HRM and Role of HR Professionals – Will need to change significantly in order to remain relevant in the

information era.• HR Thought leaders Such as Ulrich, Huselid etc imply that the new

HRM will either specialize in HRM – Value management– Strategic partnering– And establish HR architecture for organizational Success – Or will combine with MACRO Connections with the development– Or outsourcing of traditional HR Functions respectively to line managers

and external HR consultants

HRM Concepts and Model

HRM Concepts and Model

Page 27: Shrm perspective

LOGOHRM Concepts

• HRM differs from earlier personnel management models in relation to its focus, its principles and its applications. Thus, the focus of HRM today is– Effective overall management of an org workforce– In order to contribute to the achievement of desired objectives and goals

• All HR Functions ( i.e Recruitment, HR development, performance appraisal, remuneration ) are seen– To be integrated component of overall HRM Strategies

• As David Guest points out – ‘ HRM was born out of the failure of PM to manage people effectively in the

pursuit /search of the strategic (organizational ) imperative /necessary …

Page 28: Shrm perspective

LOGOUnitarist HRM

• A Unitarist approach, often reflected in American Models of HRM assumes– common interests between

employers and employees• Attempts to encourage

commitment by both inclusive – i.e communication– Consultation– Rewards system

• Exclusive – Discouragement of union

membership– Greenfield sites

Pluralist HRM

• Pluralism, recognizes that employers and their employees will• Inevitably experience conflicts of

interest,• Which HRM will need to negotiate and

resolve in order to meet• Organizational goals

Page 29: Shrm perspective

LOGOHard HRM

• Hard HRM has a strategic and managerial focus,

• Emphasizing the effective utilization of – Human resources towards

the broad org goals and objective.

Soft HRM

• Soft HRM infers the involvement of employees through such means as• Consultation• Empowerment• Commitment• communication

Page 30: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Harvard Model of HRM Shows HRM as broad policy ‘Choices’ in response to the demand of Organizational characteristics Within the context of external labor market and social economic and political conditions

Harvard Model of HRM

Choices of HRM Policies encompasses the nature of all traditional HR functions, and hopefully lead to desirable HR Outcomes andLong consequences for the organization.

Page 31: Shrm perspective

LOGO• The Harvard Model was postulated by Beer et al (1984) at Harvard University.

 • The Harvard model acknowledges the existence of multiple stakeholders within the

organization.

 • These multiple stakeholders include shareholders various groups of employees, government

and the community at large.

• The recognition of the legitimacy of these multiple stakeholders renders this model a neo - pluralist model.

 • This model emphasizes more on the human/soft side of HRM.

 • Basically this is because this model emphasizes more on the fact that employees like any

other shareholder are equally important in influencing organizational outcomes.

 • In fact the interest of the various groups must be fused and factored in the creation of HRM

strategies and ultimately the creation of business strategies.•  

Harvard Model of HRM

Page 32: Shrm perspective

LOGO• A critical analysis of the model shows that it is deeply rooted in the human relations tradition.

 • Employee influence is recognized through people motivation and the development of an

organization culture based on mutual trust and team work.

• The factors above must be factored into the HR strategy which is premised on employee influences, HR flows, reward system etc.

• The outcomes from such a set up are soft in nature as they include high congruence, commitment, competencies etc.

• The achievement of the crucial HR outcomes has got an impact on long term consequences, increased productivity, organizational effectiveness which will in turn influence shareholder interests and situational factors hence making it a cycle.

• It is thus important to note that the Harvard model is premised on the belief that it is the organization’s human resources that give competitive advantage through treating them as assets and not costs.

HRM – ROLES,

FUNCTION AND STRATEGIES

Page 34: Shrm perspective

LOGO

The HRM Roles, Functions and strategies

• The principle responsebility of HRM is to ensure that organization have• Right numbers• Types• skills mixes of employees• At an appropriate time & cost• To meet present / future requirements

• Practitioner need to operate at three levels• Strategic (cooperate and HR planning)• Operational (develop action plans to meet

present labour needs)• Functional ( activities that ensure

employees are in the right place at right time and for the right cost)

• The Roles, Functions and strategies of HRM are many and varied, and , depend heavily on – The nature of organization– The vision– Skills of practitioners– Change in the external

environments of organization• But such features have a significant

impact on the ways in which practitioners carry out their roles– Size– History– Ownership– Government legislation– Political factors

Page 35: Shrm perspective

LOGO

The HRM Roles, Functions and strategies

• As Dunphy suggest HRM is about• Planning optimum kind of workforce• Hiring the best people• Skilling them appropriately• Shifting the mix of talent w.r.t market

demand• It is also about Building

• the satisfied• Productive• And flexible workforce

• Wayne cascio divide HR functions into six principal activities:– The attraction– Selection– Retention– Development– Assessment– Adjustment of employees

• Robbin ,Low and Moursell suggest roles– Acquisition /procurement– Development– Motivation– maintenance

Page 36: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Emphasis on Strategic HRM

• In order to carry out their role, many HR professionals will need to acquire new competencies• Business capabilities ( HR Professional

need to know business of organization thoroughly requires understanding of its economic/financial capabilities)

• State of the art HRM Practice (HR Professional behavioral science experts in areas such as staffing/development/appraisal/reward, organizational design & communication)

• Management of change process (HR Professional be able to manage change processes so that HR activities are effectively merged with the business of the organization i.e. diagnosis, influence, contracting, intervention, problem solving)

• HRM in near future will play a vital role in – Creating and sustaining competitive

advantage • This role will requires SHRM to be

– Responsive to highly competitive workplace & global business structure

– Closely linked to business strategic plan

– Focused on Quality, Customer, productivity, employee involvement, teamwork and work force flexibility

Page 37: Shrm perspective

LOGO

Emphasis on Strategic HRM

• The devolution/ transfer of HR Functions or services such as • Recruitment, • Selection and • Performance review to line managers • Combine with the more recent outsourcing of

such activities as• Employee information system• Training and• Occupational health and safety

services• May enable HR Specialists to focus more on

strategy formulation and policy development.

• The separation of strategy and planning allows HR Specialists to develop• High level business planning competencies• Encourage line mangers to refine their PM

Skills• Assist the effectiveness through specialist

• HR Call centers• HR Shared service centers• HR response centers using web tech

• Variety of roles and competencies depending on the nature of – Industries and organizations.

• Ulrich and Saul Suggest combination of roles– Strategic partner– Employee champion– Administrative expert and– Agent of transformation

• Lepak and Snell point out that– Strategy formulation– Policy development– Cost containment and – HR Service roles are some time

contradictory and required quite different competencies.

Ethical Perspective in HRM

• The HRM managers of the 21st Century need to go– Beyond the traditional functional &

task roles– To become involved in more

strategic responsibilities• The idea of HRM as the link in the

– Future integration of Internal and External societal values

– Therefore consistent with development of many societies and economies

• The HRM Role needs to monitor and maintain– Behavioral norms within an org

• The Role of HR in the negotiation of Values and Behavior is of – Paramount Importance

• The Behavioral lapses of employee and managers create immense hidden cost to enterprise through such issues• Delayering• Mergers• Sexual Harassment• Inadequate diversity management• Unfair dismissals• Poor recruitment• Loss of productivity

• Good behavioral Norms for individuals and groups arise from• Clear value system,• Guiding policies and practices

obligation/duty/responsibilities

1. Employers

2. Clients

3. Colleagues

4. Society

5. The profession

6. Professional societies• Five Organizations were

Ethical centrality for HRM

• Ulrich (1997) suggested that future HR professionals need to go– Beyond the roles of Policy – Or acting as regulatory

watchdogs– To become Partners, players

and pioneers in delivering value

• In order for such transformation of HRM into Strategic “Soul” of organization to occur– Incorporation of ETHICS as a

core anchor to its practice is urgent necessity.

• HRM Practices also link the individual , group and the enterprise to contribution and responsibilities– To maintain a civil society

THE SUBSTANTIAL Challenges facing HR Professionals

Favoritism in employment Divergence in Promotion and opportunities Global consistency in occupational / work

related health and safety Gender and Race Issues HR manager face the problem of dual

loyalty The role of HRM in workplace ethics needs to go

Beyond the monitoring of legal compliance towards establishing the “ARCHITECUTE” of ethical culture

A HR approach to business partnership based on integrity combine concerns for competitive use of Human capital with managerial responsibility For the ethical dimensions of an enterprise

strategic operations. Without integrity oriented approach to business

partnership, HR Professional may continue In the administrative – service role under

the guise of being a strategic player.
