Abstract
The technological and structural changes have revolutionized every field of business and Human
Resource (HR) is no exception. In an environment in which the workforce keeps changing, laws
change, and the need of the employers change too, management must continue to change and
evolve. This is particularly true when operating globally. HR practitioner, throughout the world, are
assessing new trends in the field. Once focused only on clerical administration, HR is now a
strategic partner and has voice in all corporate decisions.
In this paper, I have traced the trends in the field of HR globally with special focus on Pakistan. All
of these trends fall into one of the following categories: Demographic trends, Workforce trends,
Economic trends, and work/life trends. Every contemporary organization must give thoughtful
attention to all these trends if it wants to retain star performers. Organizations, throughout the
country, are now realizing the importance of their human capital and are trying to provide them
maximum comfort in the workplace.

the major portion of their day time. They want to be treated fairly and equitably.
