Document Summary
Human resource management: hrm: right people, right place, right time. Hrm activities: employment planning, adding staff through recruitment, reducing staff through downsizing or the selection process, help employees adapt to the organization, orientation and training, identify performance goals, performance appraisal, compensation, benefits. Affirmative action: programs that ensure that decisions and practices enhance the employment, upgrading, and retention of members of protected groups. Identifying and selecting employees: hrm process, employment planning, right people, right place, right time, recruitment and downsizing, selection. Recruiting applicants: employee referrals, this is an older concept, generally there is more diversity recently. The degree to which a selection device measures the same thing consistently. Validity: the proven relationship between a selection device and some relevant criterion. If you want good reliability and validity ask the same questions, in the same order. Interviews: written exams, performance simulation test, avoiding making the exam exclusive and make sure those taking it understand all aspects, do not have bias on exams.
