Abstract

Daily empirical discoveries from scholarly conducted researches have given room to the modification of views and the policies in public organizations, institutions and state on the need to mobilize and utilize human capital to achieve organization or state goals. There is old and modern view or traditional and contemporarily views etc. This paper tries to evaluate the emerging trends in the study of Human Resources Management (HRM). Methodologically, it draws evidence from primary and secondary sources of data, arguing that the traditional HRM represent the process of managing people at work while the emerging trends in HRM places a caveat on the existence of a complete HRM infrastructure in a public organization that will boost the efficiency and effectiveness of workers output.
