MANPOWER PLANNING Human resources planning are a process that identifies current and future human resources needs for an organi&ation to achieve it goals. Human resources planning should serve as a lin% between human resources management and the overall strategic plan of an organi&ation. )ging wor%er populations in most western countries and growing demands for qualified wor%ers in developing economies have underscored the importance of effective Human Resources #lanning.

Best Practices

The planning processes of most best practice organi&ations not only define what will be accomplished within a given timeframe, but also the numbers and types of human resources that will be needed to achieve the defined business goals ;e.g., number of human resources@ the required competencies@ when the resources will be needed@ etc./. (ompetency2based management supports the integration of human resources planning with business planning by allowing organi&ations to assess the current human resource capacity based on their competencies against the capacity needed to achieve the vision, mission and business goals of the organi&ation. Targeted human resource strategies, plans and programs to address gaps ;e.g., hiring K 1) MANPOWER PLANNING

staffing@ learning@ career development@ succession management@ etc./ are then designed, developed and implemented to close the gaps. These strategies and programs are monitored and evaluated on a regular basis to ensure that they are moving the organi&ations in the desired direction, including closing employee competency gaps, and corrections are made as needed. This 'trategic HR #lanning and evaluation cycle is depicted in the diagram below.

W?AT ARE PERSONNEL PLANNINGE #ersonnel planning are an important development in human resources management. It has spread rapidly to nearly every si&e organi&ation in almost every %ind of business. The primary function of #ersonnel planning is to analy&e and evaluate the human resources available in the organi&ation, and to determine how to obtain the %inds of personnel needed to staff 16 MANPOWER PLANNING

positions ranging from assembly line wor%ers to chief e,ecutives. 'maller companies put #ersonnel planning in the human resource or personnel department. 'ome of the largest corporations have established separate departments for this function.

W?AT ARE T?E PURPOSES OF PERSONNEL PLANNINGE #ersonnel planning aims to reduce waste in employing people, lessen uncertainty about current #ersonnel levels and future needs, and eliminate mista%es in staffing. Its purposes also include avoiding wor%er and s%ills shortages, stopping the profit2eroding effects of being over2 or understaffed, preparing succession plans and shaping the optimum future wor% force by hiring the right managers, technical specialists and s%illed wor%ers in appropriate numbers.

The responsible person, who may have other duties in the company, must %now company policy and be acquainted with its long2range ob"ectives. He or she should understand whatMs involved in training and career development, and should be able to design career programs to improve basic capabilities, develop professional competence and teach new s%ills.

W?ERE DOES T?E PERSONNEL PLANNER FIT INTO AN ORGANIFATIONE (ompanies with fewer than 677 employees usually assign the #ersonnel planning function as an additional duty to a specific e,ecutive, such as general manager, production manager or the personnel manager. .arge companies employ a #ersonnel2planning specialist and may create a separate department for the function. The position of the planner is not as important as the qualifications of the individual. The tas% is advisory and investigative. +hoever runs the planning operation is a staff rather than line person and will not issue direct orders to other managers. W?ERE DOES PERSONNEL PLANNING BEGINE #ersonnel planning begin with a clear understanding of the current #ersonnel situation in the company. The first step is an analysis of current #ersonnel22numbers, s%ills and s%ill levels. The second is the creation of a s%ills inventory. ?OW DO EMPLOYMENT APPLICATIONS CONTRIBUTE TO PERSONNEL PLANNINGE Employment applications, when properly constructed, can help build a database for #ersonnel planning. Research starts with employment applications. The more detailed the application, the more information the planner can gather. 22 MANPOWER PLANNING

W?AT ARE T?E STEPS TO DEVELOP ?UMAN RESOURCE DATA FOR FUTURE PERSONNEL NEEDSE <rgani&ing the data requires a certain amount of cross2filing and tabulating. In a small organi&ation, this can be done manually, though a personal computer will serve to ma%e organi&ing, updating and accessing data easier. .arge companies use their central data processing systems to store human resource data and write programs to accomplish tas%s the #ersonnel planner desires. )mong the data processing capabilities the planner should have are abilities to sort data relating to the length of service, pay grade, educational level, disciplinary bac%ground, marital 23 MANPOWER PLANNING

W?AT ARE T?E EFFECTS PERSONNEL PLANNINGE

OF

TURNOVER

ON

Turnover creates unnecessary e,pense and reduces efficiency. #roductivity drops. +hen a planner identifies high turnover in a specific department, the quality of training and supervision in that department should be loo%ed into. )s a part of the human resources function, the planner would contribute to the decision on what steps should be ta%en to remedy the turnover situation, such as training, pay and incentive improvements, and the li%e. The human resources manager would then go to management with the problem of turnover and ma%e the combined recommendations. ItMs also important to determine e,actly why wor%ers, supervisors or managers leave. Every departing employee should have an e,it interview and your company should maintain a record of the reasons for leaving. Hou should as% individuals who quit filling out an E,it Interview )ttitude 'urvey. #lans to reduce turnover are an important part of a #ersonnel plannerMs "ob. The success in the tas% of reducing turnover goes a long way to insuring that a company has the right number of persons with the right s%ills to fulfill the companyMs needs and ma%e it a successful organi&ation. W?AT USES DO PERSONNEL PLANNERS MAHE OF TURNOVER FIGURESE #lanners use turnover figures to pinpoint departments where turnover is occurring and to discover its causes. *or instance, the planner may find that poor supervision is an important cause of turnover. If so, he or she can ta%e steps to have something done about the quality of supervision in the affected area. )ge is also a factor in turnover. <lder employees tend to be more stable than young wor%ers. <verqualified employees are very unstable and entry level wor%ers are li%ely to quit soon after they are hired. 2) MANPOWER PLANNING

)mong e,ecutives, a high turnover rate among the younger ones often indicates that something is wrong with the way the company manages its career advancements. #ersonnel planners should bring these matters to the attention of top management with recommendations for corrective actions. ?OW DO C?ANGES SUC? AS AUTOMATION AND COMPUTERIFATION AFFECT PERSONNEL PLANNINGE +hen planners e,amine company records, they should learn whether the introduction of new machines, methods or materials have altered the numbers of people with certain s%ills. 'uch information is important for forecasting future requirements. If the introduction of a computer2controlled machine, for e,ample, results in the elimination of machine operators, these s%ills should be eliminated from the inventory of needed s%ills. They should be replaced, of course, with those needed to run the computer2controlled machines and with specialists s%illed in electronic maintenance. )s planners uncover such changes and trends, they can concentrate on the new s%ills needed and no longer consider those that are not. Turnover figures also affect training programs. The planner e,amines them to find out how well or poorly such programs are serving the companyMs ob"ectives. W?AT IS T?E ROLE OF T?E PERSONNEL PLANNER IN CAREER PLANNINGE The #ersonnel planner usually has a distinct advantage over other managers and e,ecutives when it comes to career matters. It is essential for successful e,ecution of the "ob that the planner be very clear and up2to2date about the organi&ationMs ob"ectives. The ob"ective of career management from the companyMs viewpoint is to ensure the availability of qualified successors for every important position. !anagers and supervisors want to get ahead, earn good 2/ MANPOWER PLANNING

salaries and gain new opportunities. <nly rarely can these individuals clearly define what getting ahead means to them. The planner, though, %nows what sort of person should be in a specific "ob or as a bac%up for a specific person. Through s%illful career guidance, the planner has the leverage to encourage supervisors and managers to prepare for advancement. ?OW DOES T?E PERSONNEL PLANNER PREPARE FOR FORECASTING FUTURE PERSONNEL RE5UIREMENTSE #ractical #ersonnel forecasting should generally be limited to five years or less. 'ociety and technology change too rapidly to permit accurate forecasting for longer periods of time. T2, '-$nn,r %,.#n0 %( 0t!

?OW DOES T?E PERSONNEL PLANNER ESTIMATE T?E NUMBERS OF PEOPLE AND T?E SHILLS T?E COMPANY WILL NEEDE Estimates of the companyMs economic activity, usually prepared in the mar%eting or budgeting area, form the basis for the plannerMs calculations. He or she first determines the relationship between how many and what %inds of people the company requires to produce the current volume of product. There is not a linear relationship between increases in volume and #ersonnel requirements. )n increase of 7 percent in annual production will not necessarily require a 7 percent increase in managers. It might, though, require a 7 percent increase in entry2 level wor%ers, depending upon their productivity levels. The #ersonnel Requirements #lanning *orm22'hort Term, is used by planners to estimate the numbers of people and s%ills a company will need within the ne,t year. The #ersonnel Requirements #lanning *orm22.ong Term, is used for periods beyond one year. +hen using the wor%sheet, a planner discusses actual needs with various managers. He or she also gets input from top management. The planner enters on the wor%sheet a consensus, tempered by personal %nowledge and e,perience, of everyoneMs best estimates. *orecasting high2level personnel needs is directly related to the accuracy of the companyMs plans, particularly its long2range ones. The planner must ma%e allowances for promotable individuals within the company, as well as the need to recruit managers from outside. Requirements for high2level personnel do not appear as quic%ly as for production people. The business can grow substantially before it becomes necessary to create new areas which require managers or new divisions or groups headed by general managers. ) planner must ta%e these lags in the timing of personnel requirements into account.

26 MANPOWER PLANNING

W?AT ROLE DOES T?E PERSONNEL PLANNER PLAY IN SUCCESSION PLANNINGE Every company should have a succession plan that identifies a qualified subordinate who is ready to replace each %ey manager or e,ecutive. +hile the planner has no authority to select successors, he or she should, with the help of top management, prepare a succession chart that does name subordinates who can step up when a superior departs. The 'uccession (hart ;327 / should, of course, be %ept strictly confidential. )dvance publication is li%ely to demorali&e managers who find themselves passed over. The names above each "ob title are the incumbents. The names below the line are the prospective successors. ) more complete chart would e,tend further to show the succession at more levels, especially in a large company. To be useful, the succession chart must be %ept up2to2date. ?OW DO PERSONNEL PLANNING ?ELP COPE WIT? SHILL S?ORTAGESE Rapid advances in technology cause serious mismatches between the "obs that are available and the number of people with the necessary s%ills to fill those "obs. In addition, rising levels of education have brought with them rising e,pectations among employees at all levels. )s a result, some wor%ers will not accept training or positions that they believe are not beneficial to their careers. 0y analy&ing tas%s, the #ersonnel planner often finds that a company is not achieving ma,imum efficiency in its use of a certain type of talent. 'ome "obs are held by individuals who have more advanced s%ills or training than is needed. 'ometimes the tas% can be done by a lower2level wor%er, rather than, say, a university educated employee. The planner should bring this situation to the attention of managers who have the authority to ma%e the necessary changes and thus relieve what seems to be a s%ills shortage. 39 MANPOWER PLANNING

)nother approach which the planner might use would be to redesign "obs. Reducing boredom and monotony, and increasing comfort, often increases productivity. )s a result, positions for which s%ills are in short supply may not require more personnel, as more productive and s%illed individuals produce more. <ne company, faced with a shortage of s%illed warehouse wor%ers, built automated warehouses. That reduced the number of wor%ers needed while increasing efficiency in the warehousing operation. <ther options include finding machines that can do the wor%@ brea%ing down s%illed "obs into less s%illed components@ or modifying the product to eliminate the need for the s%ill that is in short supply. W?AT IS INVOLVED IN ADMINISTRATIVE CONTROL REGARDING A PERSONNEL PROGRAME The planner must monitor the system on a continuing basis to ensure that it gets results. Hour #ersonnel planner will benefit from clearly e,pressed interest in the program from top management. 'uch recognition gains cooperation throughout the organi&ation. +hatever actions are ta%en in #ersonnel planning that affect the s%ills or e,periences of wor%ers, office employees, supervisors or managers, must be recorded. )ll such data must be made part of each individualMs personnel record. They must also be entered on the plannerMs s%ills inventory. <nly when this is done can the planner %now the nature and number of personnel and s%ills available.

LIMITATIONS OF MANPOWER PLANNING Int,rn$- L#&#t$t#on0 There are several limitations of planning. 'ome of them are inherit in the process of planning li%e rigidity and other arise due to shortcoming of the techniques of planning and in the planners themselves. 1> R#.# #t( a. #lanning has tendency to ma%e administration infle,ible. b. #lanning implies prior determination of policies, procedures and programme and a strict adherence to them in all circumstances. c. There is no scope for individual freedom. d.

Every planner has his own li%es, disli%es, preferences, attitudes and interests which is reflected in planning. 3> T#&, "on0!&#n. a. #lanning is a time consuming process because it involves collection of information, its analysis and interpretation thereof.

1>3 RECRUITMENT PROCESS Recruitment refers to the process of identifying and attracting "ob see%ers so as to build a pool of qualified "ob applicants. The process comprises five interrelated stages, vi&, 6. #lanning. 8. 'trategy development. 9. 'earching. :. 'creening. . Evaluation and control. The ideal recruitment programme is the one that attracts a relatively larger number of qualified applicants who will survive the screening process and accept positions with the organi&ation, when offered. Recruitment programmes can miss the ideal in many ways i.e. by failing to attract an adequate applicant pool, by underKover selling the organi&ation or by inadequate screening applicants before they enter the selection process. Thus, to approach the ideal, individuals responsible for the recruitment process must %now how many and what types of employees are needed, where and how to loo% for the individuals with the appropriate qualifications and interests, what inducement to use for various types of applicants groups, how to distinguish applicants who are qualified from those who have a reasonable chance of success and how to evaluate their wor%.

)2 MANPOWER PLANNING

STAGE 1: RECRUITMENT PLANNING: The first stage in the recruitment process is planning. #lanning involves the translation of li%ely "ob vacancies and information about the nature of these "obs into set of ob"ectives or targets that specify the ;6/ -umbers and ;8/ Types of applicants to be contacted. N!&%,r0 o1 "ont$"t : <rgani&ation, nearly always, plan to attract more applicants than they will hire. 'ome of those contacted will be uninterested, unqualified or both. Each time a recruitment #rogramme is contemplated, one tas% is to estimate the number of applicants necessary to fill all vacancies with the qualified people. T(',0 o1 "ont$"t0: It is basically concerned with the types of people to be informed about "ob openings. The type of people depends on the tas%s and responsibilities involved and the qualifications and e,perience e,pected. These details are available through "ob description and "ob specification. STAGE 2: STRATEGY DEVELOPMENT : +hen it is estimated that what types of recruitment and how many are required then one has concentrate in ;6/. !a%e or 0uy employees. ;8/. Technological sophistication of recruitment and selection devices. ;9/. Feographical distribution of labour mar%ets comprising "ob see%ers. ;:/. 'ources of recruitment. ; /. 'equencing the activities in the recruitment process. )3 MANPOWER PLANNING

KM$;,L or KB!(L: <rgani&ation must decide whether to hire le s%illed employees and invest on training and education programmes, or they can hire s%illed labour and professional. Essentially, this is the Bma%e or Bbuy decision. <rgani&ations, which hire s%illed and professionals shall have to pay more for these employees. T,"2no-o.#"$- So'2#0t#"$t#on: The second decision in strategy development relates to the methods used in recruitment and selection. This decision is mainly influenced by the available technology. The advent of computers has made it possible for employers to scan national and international applicant qualification. )lthough impersonal, computers have given employers and ob see%ers a wider scope of options in the initial screening stage. W2,r, to -oo;: In order to reduce the costs, organi&ations loo% in to labour mar%ets most li%ely to offer the required "ob see%ers. Fenerally, companies loo% in to the national mar%et for managerial and professional employees, regional or local mar%ets for technical employees and local mar%ets for the clerical and blue2collar employees. W2,n to -oo;: )n effective recruiting strategy must determine when to loo%2decide on the timings of events besides %nowing where and how to loo% for "ob applicants .

)3 MANPOWER PLANNING

STAGE 3: SEARC?NG: <nce a recruitment plan and strategy are wor%ed out, the search process can begin. 'earch involves two steps A)> So!r", $"t#B$t#on $n B)> S,--#n.> A)> SOURCE ACTIVATION: Typically, sources and search methods are activated by the issuance of an employee requisition. This means that no actual recruiting ta%es place until lone managers have verified that vacancy does e,ist or will e,ist. If the organi&ation has planned well and done a good "ob of developing its sources and search methods, activation soon results in a flood of applications andKor resumes. The application received must be screened. Those who pass have to be contacted and invited for interview. =nsuccessful applicants must be sent letter of regret. B)> SELLING: ) second issue to be addressed in the searching process concerns communications. Here, organi&ation wal%s tightrope. <n one hand, they want to do whatever they can to attract desirable applicants. <n the other hand, they must resist the temptation of overselling their virtues. In selling the organi&ation, both the message and the media deserve attention. !essage refers to the employment advertisement. +ith regards to media, it may be stated that effectiveness of any recruiting message depends on the media. !edia are several2some have low credibility, while others en"oy high credibility. 'election of medium or media needs to be done with a lot of care.

STEP 3: SCREENING: 'creening of applicants can be regarded as an integral part of the recruiting process, though many view it as the first step in the selection process. Even the definition on recruitment, we quoted in the beginning of this chapter, e,cludes screening from its scope. However, we have included screening in recruitment for valid reasons. The selection process will begin after the applications have been scrutini&ed and short2listed. Hiring of professors in a university is a typical situation. )pplication received in response to advertisements is screened and only eligible applicants are called for an interview. ) selection committee comprising the Eice2chancellor, Registrar and sub"ect e,perts conducts interview. Here, the recruitment process e,tends up to screening the applications. The selection process commences only later. P!r'o0, o1 0"r,,n#n. The purpose of screening is to remove from the recruitment process, at an early stage, those applicants who are visibly unqualified for the "ob. Effective screening can save a great deal of time and money. (are must be e,ercised, however, to assure that potentially good employees are not re"ected without "ustification. In screening, clear "ob specifications are invaluable. It is both good practice and a legal necessity that applicants qualification is "udged on the basis of their %nowledge, s%ills, abilities and interest required to do the "ob. The techniques used to screen applicants vary depending on the candidate sources and recruiting methods used. Interview and application blan%s may be used to screen wal%2ins. (ampus recruiters and agency )) MANPOWER PLANNING

representatives use interviews and resumes. Reference chec%s are also useful in screening. STAGE 4: EVALUATION AND CONTROL: Evaluation and control is necessary as considerable costs are incurred in the recruitment process. The costs generally incurred areD 2 6. 'alaries for recruiters. 8. !anagement and professional time spent on preparing "ob description, "ob specifications, advertisements, agency liaison and so forth. 9. The cost of advertisements or other recruitment methods, that is, agency fees. :. Recruitment overheads and administrative e,penses. . (osts of overtime and outsourcing while the vacancies remain unfilled. 1. (ost of recruiting unsuitable candidates for the selection process. 1>3 EVALUATION OF RECRUITMENT PROCESS The recruitment has the ob"ective of searching for and obtaining applications for "ob see%ers in sufficient number and quality. Geeping this ob"ective in the mind, the evaluation might includeD 6. Return rate of application sent out. 8. -umber of suitable candidates for selection. 9.
