THE EVOLUTION OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT
The
present personnel administration movement dates back approximately to the
period just to World War I. in the year 1914. The ancient at first was on
employment management but it soon began to include many personnel problem in
manufacturing.
During World War I, the US Army developed a psychological examining corps at
trade test section of a morale section. These all devoted themselves to problem
of many men trained in these practices by the army became personnel managers in
industries applying the experience gained during war.
In the intervening decades, because of wars, economic and social pressure
further enlightenment on the part of managers, governmental regulations and
other influences the scope of personnel management has broadened to this day.
In fact, it is becoming difficult to distinguish between personnel
administration and the administration process of all management.
The philosophies, which guide management on carrying on these activities, are
pretty with the came philosophies, which guide personnel administration. In
another development, the reason for the great change, which has accused
personnel administration, had been ably expressed by ALEXANDER R. HERON in his
book, “Reasonable goals on Industrial relation.” He says the things that have
been the emergence of something in the mind and soul of a worker. These
something makes him unwilling to continue for the rest of his life in a
relationship which is perhaps ideal in all its material aspects, but on which the
decision are well made and the guidance all given by the employer.
This unrest of social consciousness or part of forces to the changes in
personnel administration on increase demand on the personnel department, which
has put necessary demand on the qualification of the personnel managers.
These managers are joining together in professional association in order that
the exchange point of view and eventually to strive for this professional
status. At the same time, salaries paid to competent personnel managers have
risen. In addition, many personnel managers have been made vice-presidents in
their respective companies.
