What Human Resource Management notes cover

The notes offer different ways into the unit. Fringe Benefits looks at rewards and incentives, while Employee representation considers communication between employers and employees. Other notes cover recruitment, training and resolving conflict at work.

Where to begin

For recruitment, start with the notes on job descriptions and person specifications. They explain what each document contains and why it matters. Follow them with the notes on recruitment, selection and training to see how those documents fit into the wider process.

If you are revising rewards instead, read Fringe Benefits and make a short list of the examples it gives. You can return to the note to check your list.

Move between formats

Notes give you space to read explanations at your own pace. When you want a visual overview, switch to a mind map on the unit page. To check your understanding afterwards, try a quiz there.
