Focused Human Resource Management in Logistics Centres

The Human Resources Management (HRM) function includes a variety of activities, and key among them is deciding what staffing needs you have and whether to use independent contractors or hire employees to fill these needs, recruiting and training the best employees, ensuring they are high performers, dealing with performance issues, and ensuring your personnel and management practices conform to various regulations. Human resources management policies-compensation and performance measurement, re¬cruitment and career development, and promotion and termination-play a major role in deter¬mining the behavior and capabilities of the employees in a company. As business processes are becoming global, competition is turning fierce, and information technology is advancing continuously, companies are looking for business schemes, such as supply chain management, to establish an edge over competitors and respond to new market challenges. A logistics centre acts as an impulse for business and economic development. Since not all companies are able to build their own logistics centres or acquire the latest support technologies (software, radio frequency identification systems, real time communication network, etc.) and management skills, logistics centres offer these services without the added risk or infrastructure costs. Logistics professionals must learn to harness the power of human resources management to ef¬fect sweeping programs of change, not only in their own companies but in other companies in their supply and distribution channels as well.
