Human capital refers to the economic value of a person's or workforce's skills, knowledge, experience, and health, viewed as an asset that contributes to productivity and economic output. The concept is central to fields like economics, HR strategy, and organizational development, where investments in training, education, and employee wellbeing are seen as ways to boost long-term value. HR professionals and economists use human capital analysis to justify workforce development spending.
