Assignment 8

Task:

Interview a personnel/human resource manager on his concept on the nature, scope and role of human resource management. Do you agree with him? Explain. Is his concept similar to that of the management of his organization? If not, ask him how the differences are settled.


We had a hard time looking for an HR personnel to interview because most of the HR personnelof the companies we visited months ago had gone out of town. So, to answer our assignment 8,we sent an email to Ms. Gerlie P. Sayon of DcTech stating the question for our 8th assignment.

According to her, the Human Resource functions includes a variety of activities, and key among them is deciding what staffing needs you have and whether to use independentcontractors or hire employees to fill these needs, recruiting and training the best employees, ensuring they are high performers, dealing with performance issues, and ensuring your personnel and management practices conform to various regulations.

Activities also include managing your approach to employee benefits and compensation, employee records and personnel policies. However, they should always ensure that employees have -- and are aware of -- personnel policies which conform to current regulations. These policies are often in the form ofemployee manuals, which all employees have.

Her concept about HR function are similar with what is in the organization right now. As an HR personnel she must perform all the function that is expected of her.

I agree with what maam Gerlie P. Sayon said, because Human Resource Management is about being practical by choosing the best employees who can fill what the company needs. You cannot just hiresomeone who is incompetent or someone who does not fit the job right? Moreover, Human Resource Management is not just about hiring and training employees to be the best but you also need to know their attitudes because a talent without an attitude is nothing. Furthermore, you as a person should know and give what your employees need, like salary and benefits. Lastly, you need to have good relationship with your employees not only to have a good working environment.
