Discuss on the differences between Personnel Management and Human Resources Management.

Ans:

Personnel Management and Human Resource Management differ primarily in scope and attitude. While the scope of people management is restricted, it takes an inverted perspective in which workers are considered as tools. Here, worker behaviour may be managed in accordance with the organization's core competencies and workers are replaced as they wear out.

Personnel management is a branch of management that deals with the recruiting, hiring, staffing, development and remuneration of employees as well as their interactions with the business in order to fulfil organisational goals. Human Resource Management on the other hand, is a specialized and structured part of management concerned with the acquisition, maintenance, development, usage and coordination of people at work in such a way that they would provide their best to the firm. It refers to the systematic function of planning for human resource needs and expectations, including selection, training, remuneration and performance review.

Human resource management is the ongoing process of guaranteeing the availability of qualified and willing workers, for example, putting the right man in the appropriate position. In a word, it is the way of employing an organization's human resources in the most efficient and successful manner.
