  • Abstract:
  • Human Resource Management (HRM) is a critical function within organizations, responsible for the recruitment, management, and direction of people who work in them. Over the years, HRM has evolved significantly, influenced by changes in societal norms, technological advancements, and economic shifts. Understanding the evolution of HRM provides valuable insights into how organizations can effectively manage their workforce in the current era. Human Resource Management (HRM) has its roots in the early 20th century when the concept of personnel management emerged. The Industrial Revolution marked a significant period in HRM history, characterized by the need to manage large numbers of factory workers. Early HRM practices were primarily administrative, focusing on hiring, wage management, and labor law compliance. Frederick Taylor’s Scientific Management Theory, introduced in the late 19th century, emphasized efficiency and productivity, advocating for systematic approaches to job design and worker training. However, this approach often overlooked the human element, treating workers as one of the part in a machine rather than individuals with unique needs and potentials.
