The importance of human resources in an organization cannot be over-emphasized. Every organization cannot depend more on this resources for attainment of its objectives. However, the objectives cannot be achieved unless the organization is made up of the employees who have skills, knowledge and abilities to work. Although employees may have the abilities, skills and knowledge but in the long run, they may find it very difficult to cope with their jobs due to many factors such as organization charges, job charges, technological changes and so on.
Therefore management involves manpower training and development as one of its various activities. When workers are employed they are due for retirement but they are being trained in order to increase their abilities, skills and knowledge.
