Document Summary
Reasons for measuring hrm effectiveness: labour costs are most often a firm"s largest controllable cost, the larger the staff number, the more the organization pays, managers recognize that employees make the difference between success and failure and therefore good performance can be rewarded objectively, organizations have legal responsibilities to ensure compliance with laws governing the employer employee relationship, evaluations are needed to determine which hr practices are effective (and not fads), measuring and benchmarking hr activities will result in continuous improvements. Performance gaps can be identified and eliminated: audits will bring hr closer to the line functions of the organization, auditing the processes because of legal implications, helps to look whether to see if organization is on its right track and is being responsible for what they do, are appraisals being done consistently, data will be available to support resource allocations.
