1.0   BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Management of Human Resources is that function of all enterprises which provides for effective utilization of people to achieve both the objective of the enterprises and the satisfaction and development of the employees. Everyone appears to agree that the present and future survival of any cooperation or enterprise, depends on the proper management of her material and human resources.  
The management of both resources and all other resources is in the hands of specific human beings.
In any organization, be it private or public, a lot of money is spent on recruiting, training and motivational incentive towards improving the welfare of employees; all in connection with better production and  operating activities of the enterprises. Since a lot of money is being spent in acquiring human resources, it is important to ensure adequate management of such resources and properly and effectively without some understanding of what he or she is trying to manage.  
Therefore, it is the concern of managers, with the assistance of personnel, to ensure that there are people in the organization to do the job that need to be done.
The old time management believed that concentration on the material resources was not sufficient. Today, it has been realized that to achieve satisfactory production, management must depend on all necessary skill and knowledge of the worker as a social and human factor. To provide an efficient service by human resources, it requires a clear management of human functions in the provision of its service.
Therefore, human beings the springboard to productivity and where much money is being spent to acquire them, need to be adequately managed so as to achieve the purpose for acquiring them. For most organizations, human resources management is one of the most important, if not the most important function. After all, in almost every organization, the most valuable resource is the human resource.
