The seeds of the human resource management profession in America's work force were planted over 100 years ago. From the roots of an emerging industrialized society to the leader of a global economy, the human resource management profession has grown into one of the most crucial aspects of any business' success. A History of Human Resources tracks how the HR profession went from a novel concept to a driving force in major decision making. This fascinating journey is one in which the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) has helped support and influence for 60 years. SHRM's vital role has initiated important public policies, helped shape an industry, but most importantly, supported the people who have made this profession their passion. A History of Human Resources marks SHRM's journey alongside the industry's most critical milestones, among them the creation of the Department of Commerce and Labor, the establishment of a national minimum wage and standard work week, and the passage of the Medicare Act. Backdrop of historical world events help readers capture the mood of the country as these important human resource milestones were enacted. The human resource profession has seen significant developments in the industry. A History of Human Resources tracks the journey of these developments and SHRM's involvement in an engaging, factual, and picturesque preservation of an important history.
