Summary

Introduction

Resource management framework is changing the way resource management can be approached. Most of the construction companies around the world are implementing human resource management systems to reduce cost, eliminate delaying project, and to provide an efficient framework in their construction site [Armstrong, M., & Taylor, S. The current framework will be studied for the best measure that could be taken in managing resource. Human resource management in the other hand tend to affect the progress alongside other factors by the skills, motivation and productivity. Human resource plays important part to support estimated progress to be on schedule. In today’s business environment, two factors have become common: change and complexity.
