Why does HR Department still keep on practising personnel management practises?

What HR department should do is to focus on the recruitment, management of the hired employees and provide direction for the people who work in an organization. But most of the companies are still practising the personnel management styles which does hiring and firing of the employees. This creates a very autocratic environment where the employer is not concerned about the need of the employees.  

Some of Personnel Management practises which is being currently practised are as below:  
  •  Handful of companies is having the performance appraisals for the employees.
  •  Bonus, incentives and addressing the needs of employees are decided based on the higher management personal favoritism. 
  •  Most of the companies are not conducting exit interviews to identify the reason of their employees exit from the company.
  •  No adequate budgets are allocated on training and development of the employee base of the company but company set higher targets on the employee to be achieved at the end of the given time period.
So now, what is Human Resource Management?

“Human Resource Management (HRM) is the function within an organization that focuses on the recruitment of, management of, and providing direction for the people who work in an organization. As you can imagine, all of the processes and programs that are touched by people are part of the HR kingdom. The HRM department members provide the knowledge, necessary tools, training, administrative services, coaching, legal and management advice, and talent management oversight that the rest of the organization needs for successful operation”.

(Armstrong, 2006) It is simply the willingness a person has to do any task with utmost passion and likening. The willingness to do a task may occur when it is attached with monetary terms and also with nonmonetary terms. And this Motivation factor is the influencing factor of any organization as without that element present in the employees may lead the organization to go on a downwards spiral.  In an organizational context motivation is given to employees mainly by monetary terms. Money, in the form of pay or some other sort of remuneration, is the most obvious extrinsic reward. Money provides the carrot that most people want.
