This seventh edition of Human Resource Management in South Africa provides a complete introduction and guide to Human Resource Management in the challenging and changing business world of modern South Africa.

The many changes and events in both the external and internal environments for South African organisations in recent years have presented human resource managers with even greater challenges. Increasingly these managers, and the human resource function in general are being asked to make an even more significant contribution to the success of their organisations.

This textbook will help you understand and handle the complexity, speed and magnitude of these changes and their impact on HR issues and policy, as well as how HR can, in turn, help South African organisations and their employees create value and achieve competitive advantage.
