South African Human Resource Management
Theory and practice
BJ SWANEPOEL
The fifth edition of South African Human Resource Management meets the ever- growing demand for HRM compendium specific to South Africa. Written by South Africans for South Africans, the book emphasises the need to contextualise HRM locally and within the wider African context. The book offers value to anyone involved and/or potentially interested in the management of human resources on the African continent and demonstrates why HRM is at the core of the sustainable development challenges we face. Now including numerous public sector examples and connections, the fifth edition continues to be a useful tool for those practising (or aspiring to practise) HRM in public sector organisations.
