Product Description

Review

"Previous editions have established an enviable reputation for informed analyses of critical features of personnel management. This 4th edition is no cosmetic update. New topics (customer service work, employee branding, work–life balance, the networked organisation) are integrated with essential standards in human resource management (recruitment, training, careers, performance management and reward, involvement and discipline). The sum is greater than the parts. This is a really useful and insightful collection of expert analyses of contemporary HRM." John Purcell, University of Bath

"This book succeeds in combining authoritative and clear accounts of human resource management with cutting edge research. Such a collection is invaluable in the classroom. I cannot recommend this too highly." Irena Grugulis, Bradford University

Product Description

This new and thoroughly revised edition of the best selling Personnel Management text by Stephen Bach provides an authoritative analysis of the latest developments in the field for students and professionals.

  • new chapters reflect the importance of the EU dimension; the new diversity/race agenda led by Brussels; the extended, network organization; new training practices; and the growing importance of MNCs, both for the UK economy as a whole and as a guide to best practice;
  • clearly and comprehensively explains the current complex HR scene with its different levels and layers

Useful Uni Book 6 Jan 2012
Format:Paperback
This was one of the recommended books in my reading lists at University. The price for this book was fairly reasonable considering the price you'd have had to pay in a book shop for the same thing. Although it would have been brand new, however the quality of the book I received was fantastic so you wouldn't have been able to tell the difference. It arrived very quickly. Would recommend to other Business/Human Resources Students.
