Abstract
Human resources are the most important and most dynamic assets in any organization. That is a familiar song constantly on the lips of human resources scholars. Yet, when bad times set in, these most important assets will be the first to be dispensed with by way of retrenchment, redundancy or termination of appointment. That is the paradox of human assets. Certainly, the importance of human beings working in an organization cannot be over emphasized. Human resources serve as the driving force that keeps the corporate wheels of progress rolling. Effective management of human resources is the key to high productivity and profitability in every organization. Effective management will include, motivation of the workforce, competitive remuneration, adequate staff training and management development programmes to constantly up-date the skills and knowledge of the entire employees. Provision of medical facilities and good working conditions are paramount because a healthy worker is a productive worker. The methodology adopted in this article was the use of primary data collected through questionnaires, interviews observations and discussions with scholars and practitioners in the field of human resources management. Secondary data comprising current academic texts and publications in the field of human resources management were also used to consummate the research study.
