Document Summary
Human resource plan: a firm"s overall plan to fill existing and future vacancies, including decisions on whether to fill internally or to recruit from outside. Where diversity and inclusion programs exist, recruitment must also take these programs into account. The propensity of a recruiter to rely on methods, systems, or behaviours that led to past recruitment successes. Can eliminate time-consuming deliberations, may also perpetuate past mistakes and obscure more effective alternatives. Changes in the labour market can affect recruiting and change quickly. Recruiters can check three fast-changing measures: o leading economic indicators. Published information relating to direction of economy o predicted versus actual sales. Because plans are often based on sales, if variations between predicted and actual sales exist, plans may also be inaccurate: employment statistics. Reports on the state of employment in different industry sectors tighter competition may require more vigorous recruiting. The requirements of each job are a constraint.
