Introduction

The programme of Australian Humanitarian provides support to the UNHCR`s global resettlement program and improves the Australia's reputation for international humanitarian. In this respect, Australia has one of the significant resettlement programmes for refugees. Every year a number of refugees come to Australia through a number different routes and this create several human resource issues. For instance; due to the arrival of plenty of refugees in Australia, the identity of Australian are in danger as the refugees population in the country is increase with the rapid pace. Therefore, it is important to understand the basic concepts of Human Resource Management. The effective implications of Human Resources Concept will help the Government to efficiently deal with the issues (Betts, 2001).

The entrance of asylum seekers creates the threat of terrorism for the country.

Most respondents had limited accurate knowledge about asylum seeking issues, with knowledge highly dependent on media reporting of the issue.

This construction has been formed through an overwhelmingly negative and sensationalized focus on the method of arrival, and the constant linking of arrivals by boat with labels of queue jumpers, terrorists, boat people and illegal (DIAC, 2007). The opposing forces from the Australian communities pushed the role of human resources in the forefront. Looking ahead, demographers predict long-term strengthening of the labour market of the Australia.

The functions of human resource management have become such reductions, along with attempts ...
