Summary/Abstract: Human resource management is a modern concept or approach to business resource management that arose in the second half of the 20th century. The emergence of this concept was preceded by the concept of personnel management. Starting from the initial assumption that human resources are intangible business resources whose role in achieving competitive advantages is crucial, human resource management becomes one of the most important activities for any modern business system. In this paper, human resource management is observed as a complex process that is perceived through the prism of the origin and development of the concept, applying adequate scientific methods of analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, historical as well as comparative methods.
