HR Policies

Closely related to HR objectives are HR policies that serve to guide the actions required to achieve these objectives. Policies provide the means for carrying out the management processes and as such are an aid to decision making. Like objectives, they may be idealis­tic or realistic, general or specific, flexible or inflex­ible, qualitative or quantitative, broad or narrow in scope. However, while objectives determine what is to be done, policies explain how it is to be done.
