Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the growing significance of human resource management and focuses on different roles and duties assigned to HR managers. The American workforce is unique in its characteristics and is therefore more complex than workers in other countries. This distinctive and diverse workforce requires a very well organized and highly sophisticated human resource management team.

From the Paper:

"The American corporate world is facing serious challenges currently and productivity has become a grave problem for most of the firms in the United States. While we can attribute these challenges to the current slow down in the economy, it is important to understand that internal forces are equally responsible for lower productivity and efficiency, which is resulting in massive annual losses for both large and small firms. The economy is faced with a recession like situation where lower productivity and lower revenues are common issues being tackled by all firms. But here we need to understand that the companies, which will eventually come out of this negative situation intact, would be the companies with best and most sound internal forces."
