Features: The knowledge economy era is approaching us. Whether at the macro level of the nation or the micro level of enterprises, the development and management of human resources have never been as important and prominent as they are now. The development and management of human resources is an extremely complex systematic project. It involves macro-level aspects, including economic and social system reform, social and cultural construction, education, eugenics, health care, as well as a series of related policies and development strategies of the government. At the same time, since most individuals live and work within certain organizations, the development of human resource potential, the mobilization of enthusiasm, and the reasonable allocation of personnel can ultimately only be achieved within these organizations. Therefore, human resource management within organizations is the micro foundation of the entire nation's human resource development and management. The goal of this book is to focus on human resource management within organizations, particularly in enterprises. The book is divided into four parts and thirteen chapters, with the main content of each part being as follows: Part One introduces the development history, evolution trends, and challenges of human resource management, presents the basic framework and fundamental theories of human resource management, and provides a summary of the main characteristics of human resource management practices in developed countries and China before and after the reform and opening-up. Part Two primarily introduces the principles, procedures, and methods of enterprise human resource formation, including three main components: job analysis and job design, human resource planning, and employee recruitment.
