Compose a 500 words assignment on a review of the human resource blogs in the hospitailty industry. Needs to be plagiarism free! Human Resource Blog Human Resource Blog Human resource refers to a particular set of individuals whom collectively make up an organization’s workforce, a business sector workforce or an economy workforce in general. Human resource is at times referred to as Human Capital which is simply manpower further defined to show and explain how the human being when engaged in the right manner of tasks and exposure can lead to admirable outcome from the relative human in question.

In my research, I sort to find a human resource blog in the tourism industry and critically review its content to come up with vital information concerning day-to-day human resource activities and the results. My research stretched to deeper view and analysis of a Human Resource blog that aimed at having “Human” back in Human resource. This is criticizing the replacement of labor by technology that ends up giving less meaning to the term Human Resource in various workforces.

As per this blog, it is evident that when the job market comes to question, the words Human Resource end up influencing whether one gets hired or fired. The blog highlights that companies indulge in tough decision making difficult choices. Majority of these choices involve their employees: this however does not mean that these choices are precisely to the advantage of these employees.

The main discussion in this blog was to criticize the replacement of humans in human resource with other media. It is discussed that when companies decide on the fate of its human personnel, the decision arrived at is vital and important as it dictates whether there is boost in morale and whether there is availability of visible talent rendition that helps evaluate each and every individual contributor in that particular organization (Barrows, 2009). It is unfortunate though, when human workers are replaced by technology. Decisions evaluated change from matters concerning human skills to for instance, discussion of line items on spreadsheet software, computer tabulations and more technology terms that vividly show to what extent humans have been replaced. This replacement in the so-called human resource workforce in the tourism and associated industries in an effort to portray ingenuity in the tourism industry by machinery and other upcoming personnel media has had diverse effect.

Bloggers who participated in this tourism blog by posting views and comments have a view that this trend should come to an instant stop. Humans should take back their role in human resource. The first step to take is seeing to it that the roles gradually return to the people to offer the necessary advice on how to boost tourism other than other areas of the field (Tesone, 2012). This replaces the event of companies focusing mainly on the numbers than reducing human personnel to reduce cost. They should take up a more holistic approach towards broader staffing, an issue easily settled by prioritizing on employees’ performance, reviews as well as the positive impact that these changes would have on the various departments and organizations too, based on every individual. Consequently, the growth of tourism from the inducing sector is assured (Sethi, 2012).

The bottom line of this blog is that human resource needs to, and has to get back to what it is intended to be. It is the backbone of any organization seeking to increase the growth of tourism as it has. This fact is dedicated to attracting the best employees and more to that, retaining them by ensuring that they work under a healthy working environment. Moreover, there should be equal opportunities for all and above all, putting into practice a human approach to the way companies and organizations at large think about, and carry out staffing.
