INTERNATIONAL TRAINING CENTRE OF THE ILO

Improving Productivity through Good Practices in
Human Resources Management

Training course

3-14 May 2004

Background

Productivity is considered to be the most important factor in improving organization performance and company competitiveness, as well as a critical long-term resource for national economic and social development. The leading role of productivity in increasing national welfare and economic growth is universally recognised. No organization can exist unless it maintains a competitive level of productivity and quality. Productivity, in its turn, depends on the quality of human and capital resources, as well as their effective use. Productivity should therefore be a starting point for any business decision and a measure of the effectiveness and efficiency of managers and employees.

Human resources management (HRM) is an indispensable component of long-term business strategy, management vision, operational and organisational planning, and the development of competitive capability. HRM policy should be in line with a coherent management philosophy and an organisational culture communicated throughout the organisation. It should involve all management systems and decisions that affect the nature of the relationship between the organisation and its employees.
