Human Resources (HRs) as one of the most valuable asset of any organizations play a crucial role in their success. Within the context of project management, HR Management (HRM) is perceived as an entire knowledge area with defined processes, Tools and Techniques (T&T) in PMBOK 5 th Guide. Although this guide shows a strong focus on HRM, it does not illustrate, in a clear way, how to perform each process with the required competencies and the related T&T. Hence, by using only PMBOK processes, the project manager cannot be assisted to select the suitable team according to their skills, also the project team members are not able to interchange their competencies. To address these issues, we propose to use an ontological approach in order to build a common shared representation in the HRM domain. This approach fosters the interoperability among HRs as well as their efficient use of T&T; further it can provide whom using PMBOK a better understanding and guidance for managing HRs with evidence.
