| Summary: | This article reports results of qualitative research that examines how the
literature available of human resource management (HRM) addresses
the new characteristics of employment in Brazil in the 2000-2015 period;
with an aging population, a reduction in the share of young people and
increased educational level of the workforce, a drop in the number of
non-employed, higher income for workers and a high rate of turnover. In
employment relations, the trade unions obtained real raises above
inflation and strikes have returned. Through a panel of specialists and
literature on human resources management in Brazil, the study reveals
a distance between the subjects of labor market, employment relations
and HRM. Two hypotheses could explain these findings: (H1) labor
relation and labor market issues are of little value to HRM; and (H2) HRM
and employment relations are treated as different professional areas
and fields of knowledge, and are poorly integrated in organizations |
