Resumo: The main authors in the field of Human Resources Management (HRM), such as Guest (1987) and Legge (2006), agreed that people have taken significant and strategic role in organizations. Therefore, the HRM field should not have traditional role of support, but rather provide organizational essential skills since human resource are responsible for the production of knowledge, providing a relevant source of competitive advantage for organizations. In this context, people must be valued, developed and their well-being at work takes on special meaning from the managers.
