Abstract
Through this research it is shown that the involvement of human resource management in the transforming local government, which currently functions at a low level in the local authority sector, will become an ever increasing necessity in South Africa. Local authorities could either accept circumstances as they are, or accept the responsibility to change them. In this research the researcher accepted the responsibility to make a contribution towards a possible change by focusing on the contribution that the human resource manager, in more specifically local authorities in South Africa could make in this regard. The change that is envisaged and is being brought about in the South African local government sector with specific reference to the service delivery of the provision, management and control of local government, has led to the establishment of: • human resource management and comprehensive management functions; • participative involvement; • a requirement of new, additional techniques of human resource management for local authorities; and • an essential requirement for increasing employee, councillor and public involvement within local government. The outcome of the abovementioned is an incisive need of improving human resource management and sound labour relations. In order to obtain the aforementioned objectives, qualitative research was used. 5 With this study the research has endeavoured to determine: • why the involvement of human resource management in the transforming local authority sector is important; • what the nature of human resource involvement within local authorities is; • what the role, functions, involvement and methods of human resource managers in the transforming local government entails; and • how the human resource involvement within local authorities can be arranged and what the characteristics of the human resource manager should be.
