1. Assuming that the human resource function also has a management perspective, what
does this imply?
If HR is viewed from a management perspective, it means:
Strategic Role: HR is not only about administrative tasks (like payroll or record keeping),
but also about aligning people with the overall goals of the organisation.
Decision-Making: HR managers participate in planning, organising, leading, and
controlling staff-related activities, just like other managers.
Performance Management: HR focuses on improving employee productivity,
motivation, and efficiency as part of organisational success.
Resource Allocation: Employees are seen as valuable assets that must be recruited,
trained, and retained strategically.
In short: HR with a management perspective implies that human resources are managed
proactively, strategically, and in line with organisational objectives.
