Produktbeschreibung

This unique book is for managers and students. It sets out the main challenges and themes of HR which are both general and specific to the construction industry, and integrates them with the rest of construction management.

---

In this new edition of their leading text, Dainty and Loosemore address key aspects of the HRM function in the context of contemporary construction organizations. Rather than simply update the previous edition, the aim of this second edition is to provide a more critical commentary on the ways in which the industry addresses the HRM function and how this affects those who work within the industry. To this end, the editors have gathered contributions from many of the leading thinkers within construction HRM. Well-illustrated with case studies of projects and organisations.
