Introduction
In an organization, a group of people (employers and employees) work together with a common
motive to achieve their organizational goal, which is only possible when efforts of all the people
in the organization are efficiently managed. Personnel management is an administrative function
which exists in an organization to ensure right personnel at right organizational activity. Human
resource management is a modern approach of managing people at workplace which focuses on
acquisition, development, utilization and maintenance of human resource.
Personnel management
Difference in Approach
The personnel management approach tends to attach much importance to norms, customs and
established practices, whereas the human resource approach gives importance to values and
mission. The personnel management approach also concerns itself with establishing rules,
policies, procedures, and contracts, and strives to monitor and enforce compliance to such
regulations, with careful delineation of written contract. The human resource management
approach remains impatient with rules and regulations. HR managers tend to relax rules based on
business needs and exigencies, and aim to go by the spirit of the contract rather than the letter of
the contract.
