Written by an international team of respected scholars, Human Resource Management: A Critical Approach, 3rd edition, adopts a critical perspective to examine the core management function of human resource management (HRM) in all its complexity – including its darker sides.

Despite over three decades of debate around the nature of HRM, its intellectual boundaries and its application in practice, the field continues to be dogged by several theoretical and practical limitations. This textbook opens with a critique of the very concept of HRM, tracing its development over time, and then systematically analyses the context of HRM, practice of HRM and international perspectives on HRM.

New chapters commissioned for this third edition examine HRM and consider issues including diversity and inclusion, employee well-being, digitalisation and AI, sustainable HRM and gig work and job deconstruction.

This textbook is essential reading for advanced and inquisitive students of HRM, and for HRM professionals seeking to deepen their understanding of the complexities of their field.
