The report in essence should reflect your personal vision as to what HRM issues are important and need to be identified and properly addressed.Avoiding plagiarism
The word plagiarism comes from a Latin word for kidnapper. Plagiarism means you are kidnapping or stealing someone elses ideas or words and presenting them as if they were your own. If you copy an article from an encyclopedia and make some minor changes to pass it off as your own writing, you are plagiarizing deliberately. If you carelessly forget to include quotation marks or a reference to show whose words or ideas you are using, you are plagiarizing accidentally. Whether deliberate or accidental, plagiarism is a serious offence in scholarship.
It is not plagiarism, however, to use other writers material when you acknowledge whose material it is. That procedure is a part of honest research writing. Avoid plagiarism by acknowledging sources when necessary and by using them accurately and fairly.
