-
The process of human resource
management consists of all the actions that an organization
takes to attract, develop, and retain quality employees.
-
To ensure that the organization is properly staffed, managers engage in strategic human resource planning—the process
of developing a plan for satisfying the organization’s human resource needs.
-
Managers organize information about a given job by performing a job analysis, which they use to prepare two
documents: a job description listing
the duties and responsibilities of a position and a job
specification, which lists the qualifications—skills, knowledge,
and abilities—needed to perform the job.
-
After analyzing the jobs that must be performed, the HR manager forecasts
future hiring needs and begins the recruiting process to identify suitable
candidates and encourage them to apply.
-
In recruiting and hiring, managers must comply with antidiscrimination laws
enforced by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission
(EEOC).
-
Discrimination occurs when a person
is treated unfairly on the basis of a characteristic unrelated to ability, such
as race, color, religion, sex, national origin, age, or disability.
-
Once a pool of suitable candidates has been identified, managers begin the
selection process, reviewing
information provided by candidates on employment applications and administering tests to
assess candidates’ skills and knowledge.
- Candidates who pass this stage may be granted an interview and, perhaps, offered a job.
