Investigating the Role of Beliefs and Professional Values in HR Management

Abstract

    Human Resource Management has been accentuated as a theme for research in various organizations and institutions and sufficient literature has been introduced on this subject since 1980s in the developed world (Harley and Hardy 2004). This aspect did not attract attention in developing / underdeveloped countries like Pakistan. Presence of literature regarding HRM at the workplace and ideological orientation warrants its application in our organizations/ institutions to help resolve managerial issues being confronted by the managers, employees and the employers. HRM ideology is distinguished by the unitarist and pluralist approach at workplace (Batt and Banerjee 2012).

    HRM, Employees, Ideological Orientation, Pluralist, Unitarianist
