Abstract
The economic and social development is accompanied by a number of theories and conceptions that, explaining the role, importance and place of different factors, sustain, altogether, the changing processes from all domains of activity. So, there have been created conceptions concerning the human factor from the enterprise and these conceptions reflect the way of organisation and functioning of people in the social-economic context and have established a bond between classic and neoclassic production factors. Any theory uses terms and concepts that reflect the essential, necessary and general characteristics of a certain class of objects. Likewise, in the theories concerning the human factor are used a series of terms: labour force, human resources, human capital, each of these having a specific meaning for one and only production factor, in different evolution stages of the enterprise. This paper opens a discussion on the concepts "labour force" and "human resource" and sustains a change of actual conditions in which organisations of the third millennium function, giving up the first concept, in order to bring up the second.
