| Abstract: | This article provides an in-depth case study of a UK mutual life insurance company with the pseudonym Pensco. The case illustrates some theoretical and empirical weaknesses within the managerialist literature on human resource management (HRM). Although organizational practices do not often live up to the rhetoric, HRM is portrayed as a self-conscious set of practices designed to integrate business strategy and the management of human resources. The argument of the article is that HRM practices can develop in the absence of HRM policies. |
