Details

Robinson's Human Resource Management in Organisations provides students with a sound understanding of the theoretical approaches to the management of people together with an appreciation of their application within different organisational contexts. 

With the use of practical, real life case studies this text identifies and discusses key developments within a variety of organisations including the public sector, privatised utilities, Small Medium Enterprises and the not-for-profit sectors, and looks at Human Resource Management within an organisational context, providing links for students between these two areas of studies. 

This book is ideal for use with undergraduates on 2nd or 3rd level HRM or Business Studies courses.
