VESGA RODRIGUEZ, Juan Javier. Human Resources Management in Contexts of Individualization. Divers.: Perspect. Psicol. [online]. 2020, vol.16, n.1, pp.201-213.  Epub Jan 01, 2020. ISSN 1794-9998.  https://doi.org/10.15332/22563067.5551.

Current society and the world of labor have undergone processes of transformation characterized by a tendency towards individualization in relationships and the weakening of human bonds. This context poses important challenges to organizations’ human resources management, in the sense that strategies and policies aimed at the management of people based on collectives must be rethought, so as to replace them with individualized management practices that respond to the characteristics of current work relations. This article proposes a set of reflections on the implications for the management of human resources derived from the processes of individualization and suggests some alternatives such as idiosyncratic contracts, individualized leadership and the management of psychological contracts as more effective ways of managing human resources in organizations in individualization contexts.

Keywords : human resources management; individualization; work relationships.
