1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of Study
Human resource management according to dressier (1973 -125) can be defined as “procedures, activities or action directed toward finding the solutions to the manpower problems of an organization that is actions which are placement, wages, recruitment, selection and placement wages and salaries administration industrial relations and joint consolation, employer welfare training and development motivation, employee appraisal and assessment and effective unitization of human resource of an organization.
According to Ubeku (1975-98) the major importance of the subject matter is the fact that is a basic function of management. Unless it is effectively carried out by all members of line management. Technical efficiency will be inadequate to achieve organizational success. Problem of human resource should not be through of as something separate from technical problem.
Bath are put of a single situation that need to be understood and dealt with by the live officials beginning with the does executive officer (CEO) Also human effort differs from other factors of production.
This is due to the fact that the employee has his own objectives which must be integrated and reconciled with those of management or this organization.
In caring out human resources management practices both individuals and group relations are taken into account.
Human resource management according to strawese (1988-98) “Started in the form of record keeping. It kept employment or rather managers including such factual materials, as data employed back ground information successive Gods held in the organization with dates and wages received matters in the relationship of the people to the organization.
Majority of the people with particular reference to the elite will be wondering why there are problems of human recourses management in the private and public sector of Nigeria organization first of all emphasis will be made on the importance of human resource in every economy.
Factually Wendell (1984-30) described human resource as “those individuals engaged in any organization activity regard less of level.
Human resource management is also concerned with the obtaining of this best possible staff of any organization and having gotten then looking after them so that they will stony and give the best of their jobs.
However Wendell went further to emphasize that there are no demarcation for was and woman working for an organization. the human resources of the government for example in the Enugu State broadcasting service (ESBS) Enugu ranging from the manager down to the messenger any activities in the organization from stating to the finishing stages depend on human resources or the staff. Therefore any organization aimed at achieving some of her goals must adequate be motivated. The researcher clearly understands. That the goal cannot be achieved only by providing and ensuring adequate supply of personnel.
This because the human resources or personnel staff that are not well motivated in an organization can never give out their best furthermore James (1978-75) observed that the effective use of people is the key productivity. Motivation of employees in an organization is to get the best of their skill and abilities James further observed that although the task of motivating workers rested on the managements team as a whole managers have more rules to play in other words the sort of continuous day to day caching appraised and encouragement that the employee will need will be more them over before managers have upper hands in motivator workers when managers work together with their workers they will know and satisfy their problems for better result.
In most case the above is expected to be obtained in the public sector but reverse is the case. This is because government will be able to maintain constant and adequate supply of personnel staff let alone motivating the little they have finally. His project will be a contribution finding possible solutiques to most of the problems of human resource managers in Nigerian organizations in general and Enugu State particular.
