The chapters in the new edition have been streamlined and
organized for easier reading and retention of material by
students. The focus of the text continues to be the strategic
contribution of HR function in organizations; but an
explicit recognition of the relationship between HR strategies,
tactics, and systems has been incorporated into the
model and throughout the text material. Within this format,
both present and emerging concerns of a significant nature
are highlighted. Key terms are bolded and an extensive
glossary of HR terms is included at the end of the text.
This edition has a thorough coverage of Canadian
human rights legislation and many recent legal precedents.
A number of trends and potentially promising HRM strategies
have been incorporated into appropriate chapters of
the new edition. HRM has recently played a more important
role in the overall strategy of companies. This trend
is strongly reflected in the new edition. All chapters now
include a discussion of how the topic dealt with in the chapter
should be mirrored in the HRM strategy and how this
strategy fits into the overall strategy of the organization.
