Personnel management permeates all the functional areas of management such as production management, Financial management and Marketing management. That is, every manager from top to bottom, working in any department has to perform the personnel functions. Though the personnel department is created under the supervision of a person designed as 'Personnel Manager', it should not be assumed that the other managers are relieved of this responsibility. Personnel management is not a 'one shot' function. It must be performed continuously if the Organization objectives are to be achieved smoothly.
