other approaches to staffing

• Effective human resource management (staffing) is important to business as it ensures that the organization has:

  • The right people, in the right roles, with the right support, with opportunities to succeed leading to higher productivity and positive work environment
• • Human resource management focuses on how employees can be:
  • Effectively recruited
  • Effectively deployed (used)
  • Effectively developed and trained
  • Effectively motivated
  • Effectively managed and led
• individual approach-

  • Focuses on the relationship between an employee and their employer
  • Assumes that each employee is unique and has their own goals, motivations, and interests
  • The employer has the power to hire, fire, and set the terms and conditions of employment
• collective bargaining

  • A process whereby a group of employees (represented by a trade union) negotiate with their employer for better wages, working conditions and benefits
  • Employees have more bargaining power when they negotiate collectively rather than as individuals
