2. Traditionally the term personnel management was used to refer to
the set of activities concerning the workforce which included
staffing, payroll, contractual obligations and other administrative
tasks.
In this respect, personnel management encompasses the range of
activities that are to do with managing the workforce rather than
resources.
Personnel Management is more administrative in nature and the
Personnel Manager’s main job is to ensure that the needs of the
workforce as they pertain to their immediate concerns are taken
care of.
Further, personnel managers typically played the role of mediators
between the management and the employees and hence there was
always the feeling that personnel management was not in tune
with the objectives of the management.

and number of personnel necessary to accomplish an

4. Human resource management is concerned with the development and
implementation of people strategies, which are integrated with corporate
strategies, and ensures that the culture, values and structure of the
organization, and the quality, motivation and commitment of its members
contribute fully to the achievement of its goals.

compensating employees, and of attending to their labor relations, health
& safety, and fairness concern.
5. With the advent of resource centric organizations in recent decades, it has
become imperative to put “people first” as well as secure management
objectives of maximizing the ROI (Return on Investment) on the resources.
This has led to the development of the modern HRM function which is
primarily concerned with ensuring the fulfillment of management
objectives and at the same time ensuring that the needs of the resources are
taken care of.
In this way, HRM differs from personnel management not only in its
broader scope but also in the way in which its mission is defined.
HRM goes beyond the administrative tasks of personnel management and
encompasses a broad vision of how management would like the resources
to contribute to the success of the organization.
6. Human Resources are heterogeneous.(Different people, different
personalities, different needs, attitudes and values).

the same situation in quite different ways).

utilization of all other resources depend upon the quality of HR.
The term HR is wider than the term Personnel. HR include all
dynamic components of all the people at all levels in the
organization, whereas personnel means the employees working in
the organization.
