Human Resource Management comprises a range of functions and functional activities that are carried out in order to, among other things, provide, utilise, remunerate, train, develop and maintain a motivated work force. It can, therefore, be described as a process embracing the dimensions of inception (getting individuals into the public sector); development (preparing employees to work effectively and efficiently); motivation (stimulating employees by caring for their needs) and maintenance (keeping employees in the public sector by providing suitable working conditions).
As you would imagine, the focus will mainly be on the African Public Service. You should thus strive to develop a genuine interest in the activities carried out by public sector institutions. This would provide you with an opportunity to evaluate human resource issues on a regular basis in this sector. You are, therefore, urged to apply practical examples in your approach to this subject.
