The business under discussion was a restaurant opened in the Pakistani city of Lahore. The case was written with the intent of shedding light on the importance of HR for an establishment. The case explains that by ignoring HR issues the organization can suffer tremendously. The case is ideally suited for students who are taking an introductory module on Human resource management.
