From increasing competition to the impact of new technology on services, to health and workplace safety issues, the pornography industry employs and applies HRM strategies that include recruiting, selecting, and retaining the best (sex) workers. As a follow-up to his previous book on the social history of training and development (2018), Kopp writes this final installment of a system contained within an unconventional setting, as he reflects and distills the facets of human resource management found in the pornography industry.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSpecifically, this book explores traditional human resource management processes and practices and examines how common HRM systems are contextualized in an \"organization-as-pariah\" venue. Topics covered include recruiting, career development, performance management, and workforce diversity, offering readers a value-neutral, analytical assessment of the HR practices in the unconventional industry and stigmatized trade that is pornography.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 454g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 210 x 148 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9783030376611\u003cbr\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eEdition number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1st ed. 2020\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"David M.
