Difference between personnel management and human resource management?

Question:

Answers:
the fundamental difference in these titles originally had to do with the nature of the employment. A factory for example, running several assembly lines, may think of personnel management as simply an at need re-allocation of resources from one place to another according to the demands of the market for the product (move 42 line workers from making widgets, to the wonkus line to assure reaching goals by deadline!). Human resource management is traditionally focussed on maximizing the gifts of the individual employee for the benefit of reaching the companie's goals (John seems to be better in managing code compliance, than Judy, who seems better at motivating employees and maintaining high morale in tedious environments - switch places and give them 6 months in the new settings - both are valuable.).
Unfortunately, these have tended to become blurred and often overlap in many companys today. The most advanced companies have begun to recognize that in the main maximum employee productivity is achieved if the employee perceives himself an important part of the whole process, and that the company wants him to achieve his personal goals (whether true or not, perception is everything). In any case, the "Peter Principle" still rules.
same difference they just changed the name about 12-15 years ago
i do know what the diff. is but it usual not handled the right way,per.mang.is suppose do just that,handle the people in charge of products&production.human rec. is try to insure the best people for the job,in the last few yr.s. you can't tell one from another.<>IS<>
absolutely same,. only the current name of Personnel dept has been changed to Human Resources Department
It is like the difference between raw vegetables and cooked vegetables.Personal department just maitains labour in and labour out records.Human resources evalates the utility of labour and their best out put in different sections and under different parameters.This is more scientific mangament of human labour.We can write any number of examples but this is not the platform.
