PROCUREMENT:

The first operative function of personnel management is procurement. It is concerned with


procuring and employing people who possess necessary skill, knowledge and aptitude. Under its
purview you have job analysis, manpower planning, recruitment, selection, placement, induction
and internal mobility.

Job analysis:

It is the process of collecting information relating to the operations and


responsibilities pertaining to a specific job.

Human resources planning: It is a process of determining and assuring that the


organisation will have an adequate number of qualified persons, available at proper times,
performing jobs which would meet their needs and provide satisfaction for the individuals
involved.

Recruitment: It is the process of searching for prospective employees and stimulating them
to apply for jobs in the organisation.

Selection:

It is the process of ascertaining qualifications, experience, skill and knowledge of


an applicant with a view to appraising his/her suitability to the job in question.

Placement:

It is the process that ensures a 360 fit, matching the employees qualifications,
experience, skills and interest with the job on offer. It is the personnel managers responsibility to
position the right candidate at the right level.

Induction and orientation:

Induction and orientation are techniques by which a


new employee is rehabilitated in his new surroundings and introduced to the practices, policies, and
people. He must be acquainted with the principles which define and drive the organisation, its
mission statement and values which form its backbone.

Internal Mobility:

The movement of employees from one job to another through


transfers and promotions is called internal mobility. Some employees leave an organisation due to
various reasons leading to resignation, retirement and even termination. These movements are
known as external mobility. In the best interest of an organisation and its employees, such job
changes should be guided by well-conceived principles and policies.
