Introduction:
“Human Resource Planning is an effort to anticipate future
business and environmental demands on an organisation, and to provide qualified
people to fulfill that business and satisfy those demands.”------ Wayne F. Cascio
Likewise, Beatty and Schneier have defined Human Resource Planning
as a sequential process embodying the following characteristic:
- Inputs into human resource planning process
- Analyzing of existing human resources
- Forecast of future human resource needs
- Implementation of the human resource plan
- Evaluation and redesign of the human resource plan
Human Resource Planning is the process by which an organisation
ensures that it has the right number and kind of people, at the right place,
at the right time, capable of efficiently and effectively completing those tasks
that will help an organisation achieve its overall objectives.
It is a sub system in the total organizational planning and it is only after
this that the HRM can initiate a recruitment and selection
process.
Human Resource Planning facilitates the realization of the
company’s objectives for the future and determines the appropriate means for
achieving those objectives and is variously called manpower planning, personnel
planning or employment planning.
