Document Summary
Determining hr needs ~ five steps: prepare hr inventory, prepare job analysis. Specification: assess demand, assess supply, establish strategic plan. Because technology changes rapidly, training programs must be started long before the need is apparent: assessing future human resources supply. The labour force is constantly shifting: getting older, becoming more technically oriented, etc: establishing a strategic plan. The plan must address recruitment, selection, training and development, evaluation, compensation, scheduling, and career management for the labour force. Recruiting employees from a diverse population: recruitment is the set of activities used to obtain a sufficient number of the right people at the right time, the end result is to have a pool of qualified applicants. Recruiting has become very difficult for several reasons: some organizations have policies that demand promotion from within, operate under union contracts, or offer low wages, which makes recruiting and keeping employees difficult.
