It is the organizational function that deals with issues related to people such as compensation, hiring, performance management, organization development, safety, wellness, benefits, employee motivation, communication, administration, and training. In order to maximize organizational effectiveness; human potential individuals’ capabilities, time, and talents must be managed. Human resource management works to ensure that employees are able to meet the organization’s goals.
