Human Resource Departments were primarily developed to **view workers as human beings with psychological needs**. The evolution of HR was driven by the recognition that employees are not just interchangeable parts in a machine but individuals with unique needs, motivations, and contributions. This perspective emphasizes the importance of employee well-being, organizational culture, and engagement, along with the overall effectiveness and growth of the organization. HR roles have expanded to include aspects such as recruitment, training, development, and employee relations, all aimed at fostering a positive work environment and enhancing productivity.
