Significance of HR
Human Resource is the most potential and versatile resource.

utilization is a sine qua non of the rate of growth of any economy regardless of the
structure and system of economy and the governance. No society and no nation can be
proud of its human resource unless there is a systematic and sustainable development of
capacities of its people and convert the human resource into human capital.
Human resource is the most strategic resource and no other resource can be fully
utilized to generate income and wealth of a nation without the active involvement of this
resource.
Money, material, men, markets and machines are regarded as the most important
resources of organizations but men or human resources are treated as the only crucial and
dynamic factor of production. Though other factors of productions are also important
they are considered to be worthless without the involvement of human factor.

to time in view of technological advancement and change in the awareness of the

knowledge in order to enable them to contribute to the organizational efficiency
and to cope with the changing environment.
