Welcome to the Information Centre for Managing Human Resources: Contemporary Perspectives in New Zealand
This book follows on from the successful human resource management titles by Keith Macky and Gene Johnson. It maintains a strong strategic and research-based orientation while updating the content and incorporating several new themes.
There have been many important influences on human resource management over recent years. Developments in globalisation in particular have added to the complexity of managing people in both domestic and international contexts. Managing Human Resources: Contemporary Perspectives in New Zealand recognises these developments. While retaining a strong New Zealand focus, the book has been internationalised by adding a comparative tone and through reference to the growing HRM research literature from China and other Asia-Pacific Rim countries.
Chapters have been contributed by leading scholars in the fields of Strategic HRM, International HRM, Managing Employee Diversity, Human Resource Development, Selection, Employment Relations and Healthy and Safe Workplaces.
