Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In any organizations, instead of their human resource department function includes: interview, selecting, training, peformance evaluation management, reward management etc. based human related responsibilities. Can human resource department assist any other departments to raise employee individual productivies and efficiencies? Although, it has only indirect relationship to productivity and efficiency issue. It does not represent that it can not assist any departments to attempt to raise employee individual productivity and efficiency. I shall indicate evidences to explain how it will possible occur.How to impact human resource (HR)management on turnover productivity and corporate financial performance? I believe that HR development has an economically and statistically significant impact on both intermediate employee outcomes ( turnover and productivity) and short and long term measures of corporate financial performance. In fact, the impact of human resource management policies and practices on firm performance is an important topic in the fields of human resource management. The high performance work practices may include comprenhensive employee recruitment, selection procedures, incentive compensation and performance management system, and implementing employee engagement, training strategies, which can improve the knowledge, skills, and abilities of a firm's current and potential employees.However, arguments made in related research are that a firm's current and potential human resources are important considerations in the development and execution of the firm's strategic plan.

Then, if the organization has high performance work practices, it implies that its all employees had adopted its working environment to do every task efficiently. The reasons include as below points: The first point, their employees must add value to the firm's production processes from effective training methods to achieve raising levels of individual performance successfully.The second point, the skills to the firm seeks must be rare. So, the firm's employees can have rare skills to contribute to their organization to compare the other similar industry's organizations, their owning general ordinary skills of employees. So, rare skillful employees and effective training both methods which will be important factors to assist different departments to improve performance and raise productive efficiency more easily. Also, it implies that an effective Hr department will have above characteristics when the organization's human resource department owns above these competitive advantages. Then, achieving the raising productivity and efficiency aim will achieve more easily.The third point, the human resource department needs to have long-term human capital development to invest to the firm's employees to continue to train them to improve their hard and soft both skills. Investments in human resource development, they are similar to organization's equipment or facilities investments. So, they both are such as to invest in the firm's specific human captial, which can further decrease the probability of such imitation by qualitatively differentiating between the firm's specific talent employees and the other same industry firms' employees .Thus, it means that the firm'
