  • EEO and Affirmative Action,
  • Human resources planning, recruitment, and selection,
  • Human resources development,
  • Compensation and benefits,
  • Safety and Health, and
  • Employee and labor relations.

Submit a Reflective Paper in which you explain how these aspects work together to perform that primary function.  Are any aspects more important than the others?  Why or why not?  How do you believe the HRM role can be optimized for shaping organizational and employee behavior?
