Abstract

INTRODUCING THE HUMAN RESOURCE MANAGEMENT JOURNAL pieces of legislation dealing with training and development, pensions, sickness, and equal opportunities to add to the four (soon to be five) on trade unions and employment protection more generally. Looking to the future, and Europe, it is clear that discussion and debate over the ‘Social Dimension’ associated with the coming of the Single European Market have only just begun. The signs are that there could be legislation dealing with each and every one of the issues covered in the ’Social Charter’ as well as participation and involvement provided for in EC ‘directives’ and the proposed European Company Statute. The reason for launching the journal at this particular time is that the attention which these issues are receiving seems to have taken on a new urgency, which is reflected in the increasing use of the term ‘human resource management’. There is also a consensus why, in general terms, this is so. Those responsible for running organizations have been faced with the task of responding to major changes in their product markets. Above all, the 1980s have witnessed a massive intensification of competition, largely as the result of the growth of a world
