People management, also referred to as human resource management is an operational0
field which is concerned with management of manpower pertaining to an enterprise. HR
department within the confines of an organisation is responsible for performing people
management (Tripathy, 2018). This business unit is especially responsible for conducting

this scenario, the hospital management has taken a decision to hire approximately 6000

requirement of NHS. To execute the planned course of action, it is required that this healthcare
