HUMAN RESOURCE
People who are part of the workforce are called human resource. 
By contributing in productivity, the human resource plays a
significant role in the economy of a country. 
Any other resource becomes useful only because of the input by
the human resource.
Investment in human capital yields a return like investment in other
resources. 
Investment in human capital is done through education, training
and healthcare. 
A person with better education usually earns better than an
uneducated person.
Moreover, a healthy person is more productive.
