Human Resource Management (HRM)

The definition I feel describes the HRM process best is Storey 1995:5.

Human Resource Planning (HRP)
“HRP is defined as the process used for identifying an organisations current and future Human Resources requirements, developing and implementing plans to meet these requirements and monitoring their overall effectiveness.” (Torrington et al 2002).
“HRP is defined as an important process by which an organisation ensures it has the right number and kind of people, at the right place and right time.
