Course Topic: Human resource management: Key Performance Indicators
Comment: Key Performance Indicators

The HR Manager must ensure that the state of employee relations is also measured regularly and any remedial action taken as soon as possible to prevent, in the first instance, or, to limit the length of any industrial disputes. The evaluation of the current state of employee relations may be made by use of specific Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) or by the conduct of an employee relation's audit.

The state of employee relations can be measured by:

the level of absenteeism
the level of employee morale
the level of employee participation in the decision-making process
the level of productivity
the number and length of industrial disputes
the level of staff turnover

Course Topic: Human resource management: motivational theories
Comment: Maslow's heirarchy of needs should be put into consideration in motivating employees. It encompasses areas of needs of an individual and this is starting from the lower to higher needs. Employee motivation is necessary for their optimum performance, this can come through good remuneration, good working conditions, better working environment etc. In the case of Herzberg, the satisfiers should be first put in place; those are the internal needs of the employee on the job.
