Abstract

Human resource accounting methods in India's public sector organizations are the focus of this research. Data collection, compilation, presentation, analysis, and interpretation concerns for the Value of human asset, financial performance, management decision making, and business performance are all addressed in this study. Within the context of profitability, investment, costs, benefits, and management decision making, this research analyzes the current state of human resource accounting procedures with regards to employee cost, human resource value, and the performance of human resources. Human resources are any combination of human efforts, abilities, talents, and knowledge that may be channeled into the creation of products or the provision of services; without human resources, no other resource can function to its full potential. People are a company's most valuable resource, yet their worth is not reflected in the books. Internal accounting and reporting for management purposes has not even considered this data. Human Resource Accounting (HRA) is the practice of include data on employees in the company's financial reports. Human Resource Accounting (HRA) refers to the process of quantifying and measuring human resources like knowledge, skills, competence, motivation, and appreciation of the organizational culture, all of which are essential to the success of the organization.

Human resource accounting techniques in Indian public sector organizations is the focus of the current research project. To that end, we have analyzed the HRA procedures of a few publicly-traded companies from 2006-07 through 2015-16. The study's findings point to a wide range of human resources reporting strategies in annual reports. The methods used by various government agencies in their reporting are examined. This study looks at the trends in HRA disclosure procedures at nine publicly traded companies in India. These companies all use HRA methods. The public sector, investors, shareholders, workers, research students, and businesses already or potentially interested in adopting HRA practices would all benefit greatly from the findings of this study.
