Abstract: Abstract: The aim of this paper is to explore the Human Resource Management Practices in Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in Kalyana Karnataka Region. SMEs, characterized by their smaller scale and resource constraints, necessitate HRM approaches that are agile, cost-effective, and tailored to their specific operational context. Recruitment and selection practices in SMEs often revolve around leveraging local networks, word-of-mouth referrals, and online platforms due to limited resources. The decision-making process tends to be more centralized, involving owners or small management teams directly in the hiring process. Training and development initiatives are designed to address the challenges of resource constraints, relying on informal on-the-job training, mentorship programs, and external workshops. Performance management in SMEs deviates from traditional structures, emphasizing regular feedback sessions over formal appraisals. Compensation and benefits are structured creatively, compensating for lower salaries with non-monetary perks such as flexible work arrangements and opportunities for career growth. Employee relations thrive in the close-knit environments of SMEs, fostering direct communication between employees and management. Work-life balance policies are tailored to accommodate the unique needs of SME employees, emphasizing flexibility in working hours and remote work options. Compliance with legal aspects proves challenging for SMEs, requiring proactive efforts from HR professionals to navigate complex labor laws. Technology adoption, though constrained by budgets, involves pragmatic use of basic HRIS tools to manage employee data efficiently. Employee engagement initiatives focus on personalized approaches, recognizing individual contributions through team-building activities. Succession planning, though less formalized, remains critical for business continuity, with SMEs actively identifying and developing talent within the organization.
