Why is HRM Important to an Organization?
Prior to the mid-1960s, personnel departments in organizations were often perceived as the “health and happiness” crews.4 Their primary job activities involved planning company picnics, scheduling vacations, enrolling workers for health-care coverage, and planning retirement parties.
Why is HRM Important to an Organization?
The role of human resource managers has changed. HRM jobs today require a new level of sophistication. Federal and state employment legislation has placed
new requirements on employers. Jobs have become more technical and skilled. Traditional job boundaries have become blurred with
the advent of such things as project teams and telecommuting.
Global competition has increased demands for productivity.
Why is HRM Important to an Organization?
Global competition has increased the importance of improving workforce productivity and looking globally for the best-qualified workers. Thus, companies need HRM specialists trained in psychology, sociology, organization and work design, and law.
Federal legislation requires organizations to hire the best-qualified candidate without regard to race, age, religion, color, gender, or national origin—and someone must ensure that this is done.

Colleges and universities offer HR programs.
The Society for Human Resource Management and Human Resource Certification Institute offer professional certification.
Why is HRM Important to an Organization?
Many companies today recognize the importance of people in meeting their goals. HRM must therefore balance two primary responsibilities: assisting the organization in its strategic direction and representing and supporter for the organization’s employees.
Clearly, HRM has a significant role in today’s organizations.5 HRM must be forward thinking.
Why is HRM Important to an Organization?
HRM must not simply react to what “management” states. Rather, HRM must take the lead in assisting management with the “people” component of the organization.
Moreover, an organization’s employees can assist in gaining and maintaining a competitive advantage.
Attracting and keeping such employees requires HRM policies and practices that they desire.
Why is HRM Important to an Organization?
Being a strategic partner also involves supporting the business strategy.
This means working with line management in analyzing organizational designs, the culture, and performance systems, and recommending and implementing changes where necessary.
