https://doi.org/10.56976/rjsi.v5i4.163Abstract
This research paper analyses the survey of different contributions in the fields of economics and industrial HRM decisions by taking into account the performance of firms, HRM, advertising expenditures, and areas for the development of organizations or human resources. This study gives a review of existing accounts of literature and the evolution of different firms that reveal the re-examination of early years’ time. This is a serious gap that is not demonstrated by the researchers. It has also been done in different industries for two decades for field existence in influential and academic writers for the rank of economics and economics-based rank and review. This study was mainly done from 2000 to 2022 for the economy of Pakistan. The organizational structure is reviewed, and this paper ends with a brief review of recent developments that have occurred in these decades on the basis of time series econometric modelling.
