    The document discusses several topics related to human resource planning including: 1) Linear programming and goal programming can be used for human resource planning to minimize costs while meeting constraints or multiple goals. Computer simulation can examine programs to address surpluses or shortages. 2) Objectives of human resource planning should be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time-bound. 3) Competencies are defined as a combination of skills, knowledge, self-concept, traits, behavior and motivation that allow successful task completion. 4) Human resource planning links organizational practices to strategic needs and can involve both short and long term forecasting to identify and plan for future needs.

    Programs for Human Resource Planning Linear programming, e.g.

    . to minimize total labour costs within certain constraints Goal programming, e.g. setting multiple goals such as increasing profits by 10% and hiring bilingual salespeople

    Computer simulation, e.g. to examine the effects of


    various programs to reduce surpluses or shortages

    Competencies defined
    A collection of characteristics (i.e. skills, knowledge and selfconcept, traits, behaviour, motivation, etc.), that enables us to successfully complete a given task.

    HR Planning (How?)

    We link firms HRM practices to its strategic business needs identified by the strategic planning process HR Planning can be both short term and long term (three or more years) Identify future needs

    Plan for meeting them

    Demand Forecasting
    Demand forecasting involves predicting the number and types of people the org will need at some future point Statistical approaches org predicts the needed workforce size

    based on certain business factors


    Statistical approach is used when an org operates in a stable environment (patient load to predict number of nurses needed)explosive growth need more of a judgmental approach

    Demand Forecasting Trend analysismost commonly used statistical

    method
    Demand for future human resources predicted on

    past business trends regarding a business factor.


    Ratio Analysisprocess of determining future

    HR demand by computing exact ratio between the


    specific business factor and the numbers needed.

    Demand Forecasting
    Ratio Analysis
    Student-faculty ratio10,000 students and 500 professors 20:1 faculty student ratio. For every 20 students you have one professor. If enrollment increases by 1,000 students we would need to hire an additional 50 faculty Regression Analysissimilar to both trend and ratio analyses in that forecasts are based on the relationship between business factor and workforce size.
    This method is more statistically basedregression analysis scatter diagramDiscuss Figure 3-2 page 68
