Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to present a case study, along with the way of approaching, on HRM, regarding KAIA Transition Plan from International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) led by NATO, to Afghan Guvernment Authority, represented by Ministry of Transportation and Civil Aviation (MoTCA). As you have already known, at the end of 2014, NATO/ISAF will finalize its mission in Afghanistan, and until 31st of December 2014, the security of the country will be gradually trasffered to the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF). Also, the administration and management of the civil organizations/ structures (including the airports) have to be fully handed over to the Afghan Authorities. NATO’s involvement in Afghan aviation rehabilitation and transfer of responsibility, to Afghan authorities on civil aviation structure, were outlined in SACEUR’s directions and guidance for Afghanistan, which referred to operating KAIA – and other airports – as a key military task with the intention of transferring the responsibilities to Afghan Authorities as soon as practicable while safeguarding military operational requirements. At the same time, SACEUR highlighted that any transition plan had to be considered the "human capital issue" to enable the Government of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan (GIRoA) to take over and run the airport.
