1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Strategic
Human resources management (SHRM) is concerned with contributions human
resource strategies make to organizational effectiveness and the ways
in which these contributions are achieved. (Jeff Erickson, Lee Dyer
2004) Therefore the aim of strategic Human resources Management is to
ensure that the culture, style and structure of the organization and the
quality, commitments and motivation of it employees contribute fully to
the achievement of business objectives. According to Michael Armstrong,
1992, a strategic Orientation is a vital ingredient in human resource
management. It provides the framework within which a coherent approach
can be developed to the creation and Installation of Human resources
management policies, systems, and practice. Strategic human resource
means accepting the HR function as a strategic partner in the
formulation of the company’s strategies as well as in the implementation
of those strategies through HR activities, such as recruitments,
selection, training and rewarding personnel. Where as strategic HR
recognizes HR’s partnership role in the strategizing process, the term
HR strategies refers to specific HR courses of action the company plans
to pursue to achieve its aims (Siddhartha Chaturvedi , 2002)
Managing
the human resources in the organization is the traditional
responsibility of the personnel manager, a precursor to human resource
management (HRM). Some scholars however equate HRM with personnel
management, concerned with providing staff support in the organization
(e.g. Guest, 1989). Other scholars consider HRM as a natural development
of personnel management practices in the face of changing economic and
business environment (Armstrong , 1989 & 2004, and Fajana 2002).The
people –management discipline is undergoing continuous metamorphosis,
with the recent emergence of strategic human resource management
(SHRM) in organization and management Literature.
