Course Description:
This course examines the intricate relationship between the state, employers, employees, and labor organizations in the context of industrial relations. It provides a critical analysis of the roles and responsibilities of government in regulating labor markets, resolving industrial disputes, and promoting fair employment practices. The course also explores the impact of political systems, public policies, and global economic trends on industrial relations frameworks.
Key topics include the evolution of industrial relations, the role of trade unions, collective bargaining, labour laws, conflict resolution strategies, and the influence of international labour organisations. Through case studies and real-world examples, students will gain insights into how the state mediates the often-competing interests of capital and labour to maintain industrial harmony and drive economic development.

This course is about a process in Human Resource Management that deals with the workforce (employees) planning (Human Resource Planning - HRP). The process includes forecasting, developing, implementing, and controlling, by which an organisation ensures that it has the right number of people and right kind of people, at the right place, at the right time, doing things for which they are economically most suitable.
Decenzo and Robbins have defined HRP as “Specifically, human resource planning is the process by which an organisation ensures that it has the right number and kind of people, at the right place, at the right time, capable of effectively and efficiently completing those tasks that will help the organisation achieve its overall objectives”.
Leap and Crino have defined HRP in the following manner: “Human resource planning includes the estimation how many qualified people are necessary to carry out the assigned activities, how many people will be available, and what if anything must be done to ensure that personnel supply equals personnel demand at the appropriate point in the future.”
From the above definitions, the following features of HRP can be identified.
1. HRP is a process that includes various aspects through which an organization tries to ensure that the right people, at the right place, and at right time are available.
2. It involves the determination of future needs of manpower in the light of organizational planning and structure. Determination of manpower needs in advance facilitates managements to take up necessary actions.
3. It does take into account the manpower availability at a future point in the organization. Therefore, it indicates what actions can be taken to make existing manpower suitable for future managerial positions and how the gap between needed and available manpower can be fulfilled.
