Answer to Question 1

Answer: Although human resource research is not a distinct HRM function, it pervades all functional areas, and the researcher's laboratory is the entire work environment. For instance, a study related to recruitment may suggest the type of worker most likely to succeed in a particular firm. Research on job safety may identify the causes of certain work-related accidents. The reasons for problems such as excessive absenteeism or excessive grievances may not be readily apparent. However, when such problems occur, human resource research can often shed light on their causes and offer possible solutions. Human resource research is clearly an important key to developing the most productive and satisfied workforce possible.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
