People Management (PM) is the UK's biggest human resources publication with a circulation of 132,000. It is the official magazine of the Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development (CIPD), and is published by Personnel Publications Limited.
In 1996, it became the first magazine in the UK to refuse “ageist” recruitment advertisements, as the start of a campaign against age discrimination, which saw PM draw up a charter that was eventually signed by 65 recruitment communications and marketing businesses..
In addition to age discrimination, the magazine has worked to raise awareness of the employment issues facing employees with mental illness, ex-offenders, dyslexic people, women, ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, and gay, lesbian and bisexual workers. It has also highlighted best practice in managing and supporting employees with cancer. In 2006 they ran a successful campaign to draw attention to the issue of pregnancy at work, for which they joined forces with baby charity Tommy's.
Its website includes an HR jobs search and a supplier directory.
In 2011 People Management magazine changed from a fortnightly publication schedule to monthly publication schedule. April 2011 was the first monthly issue to be published.
The sister magazine of People Management is Coaching at Work

Famous quotes containing the words people and/or management:
“The trouble about soldiers in Mr. Siegfried Sassoon’s poetry ... is that they are the kind of people who in a railroad train have to travel with their backs to the engine. Peace can have but few corners softly padded enough for such sensitives.”
—Rebecca West (1892–1983)
“No officer should be required or permitted to take part in the management of political organizations, caucuses, conventions, or election campaigns. Their right to vote and to express their views on public questions, either orally or through the press, is not denied, provided it does not interfere with the discharge of their official duties. No assessment for political purposes on officers or subordinates should be allowed.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
