Human resources practice in Ireland demands more than procedural competence. It requires theoretical understanding, legal precision and the practical wisdom to bring both to bear in the complexity of real organisational life.
The Human Resources Professional Handbook is the definitive resource for HR practitioners operating within Ireland’s distinctive legal and employment relations landscape. Spanning eleven authoritative chapters, it integrates the theoretical foundations of HR practice with rigorous coverage of Irish employment law from the Workplace Relations Commission to the EU AI Act and delivers practical frameworks ready for immediate implementation.
From talent acquisition and remuneration to equality, data protection, artificial intelligence, and corporate sustainability reporting, The Human Resources Professional Handbook addresses the full breadth of contemporary HR practice. It is equally attentive to the emerging challenges reshaping the profession: hybrid working, algorithmic decision-making, psychosocial risk, and the growing demands of ESG governance.
Whether read as a comprehensive course in Irish HR practice or consulted as an authoritative reference, The Human Resources Professional Handbook offers what practitioners too rarely find in a single volume: scholarly rigour, legal accuracy, and operational guidance working in concert.
