  Human resource management   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Human resource management (HRM) is now the term most commonly used in academic circles to encompass the range of policies and practices used by 'modern' organizations in the management of employees.
HRM as a term was first used by Miles (1965) in the Harvard Business Review to differentiate the human relations school which focused on managerial leadership from the creation of 'an environment in which the total resources of [the organization] can be utilized' (1965: 150).
The final distinguishing characteristic of HRM is that it is concerned with the internal policies and practices of the organization at the micro level and tends to ignore or take for granted wider macro issues of societal culture, the political economy and the role of the state.
