Therefore, Human Resource Management is the controlling people to make a profit.Or, a more comprehensive definition might be:Managing employees and positions to achieve the goals of the organisation & satisfy the needs of the employeesA) The importance of HRM- organisations are only groups of people so if there are
no people, there is no organisation- machines, computers and factories all need people to
operate them, without employees, the machines, computers and factories cannot work
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 2
- the success of the organisation is a combination of the success of the individual employees, so if the employees are successful, the organisation will be successful.
- different organisations often have the same machines, products and processes, and are very competitive, so the only way to get an advantage and beat the competition is to have very good employees who work hard.

no new ideas or different experiences coming in to the organisation
requires good training to give an employee the ability to do a higher level job
creates other positions in the organisation that need filling by recruitment
External Recruitment: Types of external recruitmentadvertisements: newspapers, magazines, posters,
universitiesagencies: government or private agencies that
provide applicants
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 23
referrals: from employees, customers, or clientsunsolicited: applicants who contact the organisation

many applicants to choose from (big applicant pool)new employees with new ideaschange in office relationshipsapplicant may have knowledge about the competition
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 24
Disadvantages of external recruitmentdifficult to assess the skills and suitability of
applicants who you do not knowif you make the wrong selection and the applicant is
not suitable, then it is a very expensive mistake through recruitment costs and loss of working time
external applicants have to be orientated and familiarised with the organisations which takes time
other employees who wanted to be promoted may have bad feeling
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 25
Many organisations use both internal and external recruitment for the same position. First they advertise internally, then they advertise externally.c) Selection1. Screening
screen resumes and remove under-qualified and over-qualified applicants
select the most suitable applicants and put them on a 'short-list'
possibly give them an application form to complete before or after screening
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 26
assess only the applicants on the 'short-list' to save time and money
2. AssessmentThis is where the selection criteria are used to select the best applicant
Qualifications: level, title, date, and institutionExperience: length, type, varietyTests:
aptitude: ability to learn new skills intelligence: power of your brain as measured by IQ
tests
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 27
work tasks: an example of what the applicant will be doing
Examples of workproject reports the applicant has written (scientists,
teachers)portfolios and plans of their designs (artists,
architects, engineers)Reference Checks: professional, academic, personalInterviews

Topic 6 Function 3: Performance Management
a) Performance Management
appraising (measuring, evaluating) performance and increasing employee performance
b) Performance Appraisalmeasurement of performance criteria to evaluate
employee performanceEmployee performance is measured in different ways
depending on the position.
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 31
Generally, performance means productivity, outputs or achievement.
eg. Performance for a sales position might be measured in the number of products sold, or performance for a garment worker might be the number of garments made per hour.Research has shown that organisations with
performance appraisal systems are more successfulPerformance = Abilities + Motivation + ResourcesIndividual employee performance depends on three factors:
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 32
1) abilities - the skills used to do the job can be increased by training
2) motivation - how hard the employee works can be increased by rewards
3) resources - materials needed to do the job can be increased by organisation
c) The purpose of performance appraisalencourage employees to focus on performance and
achieving goalsdemonstrate to employees which tasks are important
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 33
make management decisions about training, compensation and downsizing
develop employees, increase strengths and reduce weaknesses
reward high performing employees with bonuses, commissions, and other rewards
distinguish between good employees and bad employees
find ways of improving performanced) Who appraises performance?
a person who knows the job tasks, duties & requirements
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 34
person who knows the performance criteria and how to measure performance
a person who can observe the performance of employees Employee’s Supervisor
most commonassumption that the supervisor knows the person and
the job bestemployee may feel threatened and makes excuses
for performanceif employees feel punished their performance might
decrease
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 35
The Employeeless defensivebiased towards high performanceless likely to spot areas of poor performance
Employee’s Peersteam members often know employees performance
better than supervisorrequires a high level of trust between employeescan create competition and distrustcan be biased towards higher performance
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 36
Employee’s Subordinatean accurate measure of management and leadership
abilityimproves subordinates’ job satisfactionsubordinates can be afraid of negative consequences
Employee’s Customerscustomer satisfaction surveysimportant that the customer is satisfied
Multi-source or ‘360 degree’ evaluationperformance appraisal done by supervisor, self,
peers, subordinate, and customers
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 37
a very comprehensive analysis of employee performance
makes performance measurement a priorityencourages co-operation between different levels in
the hierarchy takes a long time and a lot of effort
e) Methods of Performance Appraisal Grading: writing a letter or number grade for
each criteriaeg. Circle the number that indicates this employee’s leadership skill: high 5 4 3 2 1 low
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 38
Behaviour Scales: similar to grading, but on a behaviour scale there is an example of each
grade that is used to compare with the employeeeg. Please circle the grade that matches the
employee’s customer service behaviour- 5 This employee is very respectful, helpful and does more than customer expects- 4 This employee is helpful, polite, respectful and does everything customers ask- 3 This employee is polite towards customers and helps when suitable
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 39
Agreement Scales: these scales are used to measure opinions and attitudes by asking how much you agree or disagree to a statementeg. This employee has a lot of potential and aptitude to be a manager: SA strongly agree - 5 A agree - 4 N neutral - 3 D disagree - 2 SD strongly disagree - 1 Checklist: to measure if the person does the action or noteg. Has this employee completed the OH&S training course for our organisation
Yes [ ] No [ ]
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 40
Description: written description about the employee’s performanceeg. Describe a situation where this employee was under a lot of pressure and stressf) Performance Appraisal InterviewEvery 3, 6, 9 or 12 months, an employee and their supervisor will meet to discuss the performance appraisal. This is an opportunity to measure performance, discuss any problems, set goals, and decide on an outcome (more training, a reward, etc.)
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 41
g) Sources of errorprejudice - pre-judging the performance of an
individual or group of people before completing the performance appraisal and analysing all the data collected
hard or soft bias - the person doing the appraisal always being very easy or very difficult
good or bad effect - judging all criteria based on the measurement of one obvious criteria
recency effect - events just before the appraisal are remembered most
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 42
relationship effect - friendships, length of the relationship, trust, similarity can bias results
...the best way to reduce errors is just to be aware that they exist and this usually reduces the bias
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 43
Topic 7 Increasing Performance through Motivation
There are two approaches to motivating employees, by satisfying needs and by giving rewards1) Satisfy Employee’s Needs:
basic living requirements - money to buy food, accommodation, clothes, etc.
safety and security - no threat of losing job, being injured or being harmed in any way
social relationships - friendly peers, respectful supervisors, time to talk together
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 44
power - respect from other people at all levelsautonomy - freedom to do their job in the way they
think is best.growth - development through learning new skills,
doing different jobschallenge - tasks that test their skills and require all
the employee’s abilityimpact - seeing the outcome of their work and that
their job is important to the organisation Job Satisfaction
a positive feeling towards work when all needs are satisfied
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 45
based on: task characteristics: the type of work the employee
has to do social environment: people the employee works with personal feelings: attitudes, likes and dislikes about
work when employees’ needs are satisfied, they are more
likely to be motivated and have high performance2) Reward Employees:Recognition, promotion, wage bonus, benefits, gift, party, interesting work
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 46
Important points about using money and rewards to increase motivation:
managers must be able to accurately measure employees performance
managers should know what employees would like (money, holidays, recognition, etc.)
incentives and rewards must be linked to performance
incentives must be given fairly and equally (only based on performance)
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 47
Rewards should be given immediately after the good performance, do not wait. The aim is for managers to teach employees that if they have good performance, then they get a reward.
Rewards that the employee chooses are more effective than rewards the managers just give them
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 48
Topic 8Function 4: Training and Development
Training = teaching employees specific skills to be used immediatelyDevelopment = educating employees to have more potential for the futureThe Purpose of Training and Development
to increase the performance of employees at their tasksto motivate and reward employees by giving them
more skills
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 49
to make use of the latest knowledge and technologyto increase the intelligence of the organisation
There are three stages to Training and Development, assessment, action, and evaluation1. Assessment
I) Organisationreview the employee database to see what skills employees have alreadyreview organisation’s goals to see what skills are going to be needed in the future
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 50
analyse the difference between the present and future needs, and join themanalyse organisational environment to see what other factors will effect trainingII) Positionscomplete a job analysis (Topic 4)identify what skills are needed to do the duties of each jobdecide on the level of ability each job requiresIII) Peoplecheck to see if the person in the position has the skills required
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 51
check to see if there a people with skills they are not using in their current jobdecide which employees need to be trained: people with the right aptitude look at the performance measurements of each
employee review HR plan
The final result of the assessment step is a decision about which employee will be trained in which skills. eg. Teach Ms Sokunthea how to use MS Excel
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 52
2. ActionThe Action step is about deciding how the skills will be taught. It involves a series of questions about:
I) Presentersfrom your organisation - ‘in-house’from another training organisation - ‘out-sourced’
eg. VBNK, SMS computer or video training programeducational institution eg. CSUKII) Styleclass - a classroom situation with a teacher presenting knowledge
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 53
simulation - a task that is a copy of the real work environmentactivities or workshops - practical activities to get the employees familiar with new skillsmentoring - where the employee follows and copies a ‘mentor’ or person who has the skills III) Timingduring work hoursoutside of work hoursintense, short timedrawn out, long time
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 54
3. Evaluationevaluate the effectiveness of the training programdecide if this type of training program should be used
in the future it is important to focus on the outcomes of training
not the inputsIt is possible to measure four types of outcomes
a) Learning - an examination or practical test that demonstrates the knowledge
b) Feelings - what the employees feel about the worth of the training
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 55
c) Behaviours - what the employee does differently because of the training
d) Results - increased measurement of performance criteria, profits and productivity
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 56
Topic 9 Function 5: Compensation, Benefits and Payroll
Compensation = the organisation gives money in exchange for employee’s time and effort (financial)Benefits = in addition to money, the organisation provides services to the employee (non-financial)Payroll = the process of paying employees money and keeping accounting records1) Compensation not enough compensation decreases motivation,
loyalty and performance
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 57
too much compensation decreases the profits and competitive advantage of the organisation
The aims of the compensation, benefits and payroll function:
attract and keep high performing, good quality employees
reward good performancecontrol labour costs and the money spent on
wages/salariesget maximum value for moneymaintain fair, legal and equal pay for employees
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 58
Wage = money paid based on the amount of time worked, per hour or per daySalary = money and benefits paid for doing a whole job, per month or per yearThe Labour Law of the Kingdom of Cambodia requires that:
wage payments to workers and low level employees be paid twice-monthly (16 days)
salary payments to other employees be paid monthly commissions owed to sales agents or representatives
be paid three monthly
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 59
wages cover the basic living costs of workers and their families based on circumstances
if pay-day happens to be a holiday, wages must be paid a day in advance
2) How to decide about compensation amounts:- for wages and salaries to be fair, they must be equal
with other positions inside the organisation – internal equity – and equal with positions outside the organisation in other organisations.
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 60
a) Internal Equityjob analysis/job description (from Topic 4): look at the requirements, duties, tasks and responsibilities of the position and think about how much money this position is worthjob evaluation: using information from the job analysis/job description, evaluate the worth of the job using one of the following methods – more accurate than guessing
Job Ranking – listing the ‘biggest’ job (eg. CEO), down to the ‘smallest’ job (eg. worker)
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 61
– the order of positions should match the order of salaries Job Grading
writing a grade description for each level of position in the organisation
deciding on an amount of wage or salary for each level of position
each group of positions has it 4 to 7 grades with descriptions and wage or salary level
eg. Accountant, Grade 2, $1,100 p.m Electrician, Grade 1, $20 p.h, focuses on position Manager, Grade 3, $1,600 p.m.
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 62
Point System calculating the worth of a position by adding together
all the points given for each job criteria such as qualification, experience, skills
decide on an the number of points for each criteria and then the amount of money paid for each point
eg. Bachelor Degree = 150 points 4 years experience = 185 points, focuses on person Computer skills = 70 point Length of service = 45 points total = 250 points, 1 point = $1 p.m., :: = $250 p.m.
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 63
b) External Equitysalary survey
like any other survey, a salary survey is a list of questions about compensation
to find out about external equity, you would ask managers in other organisations how much they pay their employees
Question 1: about the position (duties, tasks, responsibilities, requirements, etc.)
Question 2: about the person (experience, qualifications, skills, etc.)
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 64
Question 3: about the wage/salarythen compare this information to your organisation
and set wage/salary amount Other issues that need to be considered are
union demands about compensation labour market supply and demandorganisations mission and goals – the quality of
employee required (high ability, high quality, high cost, or low performance, low quality, low cost)
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 65
3) Benefits: types of Employee Benefitsa) Insurance – a reserve of money for protection that is
paid for per monthLife Insurance – payment to the family if an employee
dies at workAccident Insurance – money to cover the hospital bills
and time off workDisability Insurance – money to help an employee if
they are disabled at workHealth Care – private health care if the employee gets
sick at any time
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 66
House or Car Insurance – protection for property if it is stolen, broken or burnt
b) Payment For Time Not Worked annual leave / holidays – 15 days per year average sick leave – for when the employee is sick maternity leave – for when women have children
then come back to work compassionate leave – if a member of their family
dies or is sick personal leave – to attend special events like a
wedding, ceremony, etc.
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 67
c) Flexible Work Schedules – hours of work chosen by the employee
d) Superannuation and Retirement – money saved for when the employee retires
e) Other – such as a laptop computer, mobile phone, sports tickets, security parking
4) Payroll- a record of amounts and dates wages were paid
(usually for previous 5 year period) - full record of other financial payments including
bonuses, commissions and benefits
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 68
- notification to employees of the amounts paid - especially if deposited to a bank account
- acknowledgement of wages received in the form of a signature
- a plan of payments that allows for public and personal holidays

Topic 10 Function 6: Industrial Relations
The relationship between managers and employees. Managers sometimes attempt to make employees work very hard for low pay and under bad conditions.Employees then form unions to protect themselves and go on strike when they want more pay or better working conditions. Unions are formed because managers have failed to
care for their employees
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 70
Unions protect the rights of employees but do not care about the organisation and many times unions have caused companies to go bankrupt with demands that are too high
Managers and Employees often become enemies and fight each other, and this wastes a lot of time, money and energy
Therefore, if managers what to reduce the power of unions to increase efficiency, they have to care for and protect the employees instead of the union
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 71
Good managers try to create a co-operative approach where employees are cared for and the focus is on teamwork and co-operation so that both managers and employees get what they want, managers help employees and employees help managers
Human Resource Managers are responsible for the following:provide fair compensation and good working conditions
for all employeessolve any problems employees have before there is a
strike
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 72
help negotiate conflicts and control strikesact as an advocate between employees and managers
to help satisfy both their needsnegotiate and write employment contracts for
employeesHow managers should solve problems before they become conflicts:Listen to the concerns and dissatisfaction of the
employee. Make theemployee feel you are listening and understand about
their problems
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 73
Collect all the facts about the problem, talk to the employee(s) involved and gather information as evidence.
Act quickly. Make the employee feel this is a priority for management and that they do not have to go to the union for help
Act with confidence. Do not be afraid of the union or any other party. Use your power to solve the problem in the best possible way without relying on other parties
Keep the issue in proportion. Do not overreact or make the problem seem bigger than it really is, remembering that problems are easier to solve when they are small
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 74
Creating good relationships between workers & managers:see employees as vitally important to the achievement
of goals and success of the organisation - a strategic resource
take responsibility for industrial relations - instead of the unions being given responsibility
make all senior managers, middle managers and supervisors responsible for creating positive relationships with workers
open up communication between workers and managers
Chea Sim University of Kamchaymea Kampong Cham Branch
Teach by Mr. LONG Dimanche, MBA 75
give employees personal attentionhave company-sponsored social, sporting or cultural
eventsreward performance, commitment, loyalty & qualitycreate pride in the organisation and its products or
servicesreduce the separation of social classes between
‘management’ and ‘employees’create a pleasant, safe and healthy working

Topic 11Function 7: Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S)
Occupational = about a job or position (occupation means job)Health = issues that concern health: toxins, carcinogens, dust, stress, diseases, etc. – inside the bodySafety: directly relates to bodily damage including accidents, injuries or death – outside the body In Australia every year:

- 650,000 people are injured- 2,200 people die because of exposure to
hazardous chemicals- $AU 27,000,000,000 ($US15billion) is lost
because of accidents- more time is lost through accidents than
through industrial action- It is management’s responsibility to provide a healthy and
safe working environment for their employees. - Minimising accidents and injuries is important to having
a successful business

- Poor OH&S gives the organisation a bad reputation - Good managers see the benefit in having good OH&S
policy and procedures and work very hard to reduce the number of accidents
- Bad managers ignore accidents and think that this cost is just part of doing business
The Case of Sagasco Oil CompanySagasco continually made a pre-tax profit of between 7 and 8 million dollars per year. But due to poor OH&S, they would lose more than 3 million dollars, reducing their profit.

The CEO started to get serious about health and safety and improved performance by more than 85%. The accident rate went from 60 accidents per one million working hours to 10. As a result, Sagasco saved over 2 million dollars per year on accidents and their profits increased. Occupational Health and Safety risks include:
- electric shocks from wires- falling over or tripping- falling objects onto a person- fires and burns- dangerous machines
