THE ROLE OF HUMAN RESOURCE IN PROMOTING INDUSTRIAL HARMONY IN NIGERIA
CHAPTER ONE
Introduction
1.1 Background to the Study
Human resource function becomes recognized as a central business concern sequel to its ability to integrate employee welfare and organizational objective and effective communication into strategic management. Human resource management seeks to eliminate the meditation role and adopts a generally unitarist perspective.
