Human Resources Management and Labour Relations

Successful Long Term Care and Retirement Homes require financial resources, (investment, capital, cash), physical resources (building, equipment) and human resources (people). The human resources framework involves obtaining and retaining competent employees. Managers require knowledge of competitive wage scales, pay equity, and benefit packages. Positive employee relations can be achieved through job satisfaction, conflict resolution and compliance with collective agreements and the Human Rights Code. Administrators/General Managers must meet the challenge of the increasing number and complexity of government regulations and the diversity of the workforce.
