Human resources are among the most important resources of an organisation, as without personnel, the tasks within the organisation cannot be fulfilled. However, this is not only the case for profit-oriented organisations, but also for non-profit organisations. In order to manage this scarce resource in organisations, whether profit or non-profit, a well-thought-out management plan for human resources must be considered. This paper provides an overview of human resource management in general and human resource management in NPOs in particular. It explains the basics of human resource management and highlights the differences between human resource management in profit and non-profit organisations. Furthermore, certain points are raised on how non-profit organisations should proceed when managing human resources in order to recruit, administer, remunerate and develop their staff. Finally, a youth organisation in Austria is used to illustrate how it handles its specific approach to human resource management.
