Abstract: Abstract Human resource management (HRM) has been defined in many ways and various models have been developed and discussed to tease out its specific character (see for example Legge (1995) for a thorough review and analysis of the literature). HRM is clearly rooted in its ancestor, personnel management, with a strategic slant (Legge 1989; Poole, 1990; Storey, 1992; Schuler et al., 1993). So, in fact, one still deals with issues such as selection, recruitment, training, remuneration and the like, the preserve of personnel management. But all these issues are considered bearing the overall strategies of the firm in mind and the ways in which HRM can contribute to those strategies.
