The position of these functions within the management heirarchy has varied over time with the nature of the environmental pressures associated with them. Pressures from shortages in labor markets and the need to increase production led to the rise of a personnel function in WWI; the failure of the personnel response (welfare capitalism) in the new economic environment of the Depression and the rise of labor unrest led to the creation and growing influence of the labor relations unit. Other aspe...cts of the personnel function developed and grew in importance with the tighter labor markets for technical and professional employees and the growing government regulations in the 1960's and 1970* s. At the same time, the environment facing the labor relations unit began to change and the gradual decline in pressure from the labor movement led to a gradual decline in the influence of the labor relations unit. In the most recent period, a major transformation of power is underway within these units as firms cope with a confluence of environmental pressures.
