Something that is used by humans in any way, shape, or form can be considered a resource.

Human Resource Management is influenced by the demands of the individual business. The leadership of the company sets the tone for the entire organization. HRM is left to execute the plan.

Human Resource planning can be defined as a process by which an organization ensures that it has the right number and kinds of people, at the right place, at the right time, capable of effectively and efficiently completing those tasks that will help the organization achieve its overall objectives or in other words HRP can be defined as planning for the future personnel needs of an organization, taking into account both internal activities and factors in the external environment.

Need and Importance of HRP

Human resource Planning translates the organization objectives and plans into the number of workers needed to meet these objectives. The need and importance of HRP is as follows:

HRP helps in determining the future manpower requirements and avoids problems like over staffing or under-staffing in the organization.

HRP helps in tackling with the factors like competition, technology, government policies etc. that generates changes in the job content, skill requirements and number and types of personnel required.

Now a days there is a demand of exceptional intellectual skills while the existing staff becomes redundant, the HR manager has to attract and retain qualified and skilled personnel and also required to deal with issues like career development, succession planning for which he takes the help of HRP. A proper and realistic human resource plan is needed to ensure equal employment and promotional appointments to the candidates fro weaker sections, physically handicapped and socially and politically oppressed citizens.

HRP provides valuable and timely information for various designing and execution of personnel functions like recruitment, selection, transfers, promotions, layoffs, training and development and performance appraisal.

It helps the organization to anticipate imbalance in human resources, which in turn will facilitate reduction in personal costs.

HRP facilitates planning for future needs which will help in better planning of assignments to develop managers and to ensure the organization has a steady supply of experienced and skilled employees.

Factors affecting Human Resource Planning

HRP is a dynamic and on going process. The process of updating is not very simple, since HRP is influenced by many factors, which are as follows: The type of organization determines the production process and number and type of staff needed. The human resource needs of an organization depend on the strategic plan adopted by it. For e.g. the growth of a business calls for hiring of additional labor, while mergers will need a plan for layoffs.

Organization operates under different political, social environment and has to carefully formulate the HR policies and so the HR manager has to evolve suitable mechanism to deal with uncertainties through career developments, succession planning, retirement schemes etc.

HRP also depends on the time periods and accordingly the short and long-term plans are adopted. And this time span is based on the degree of environmental uncertainties.

The type and quality of information used in making forecasting is an important factor influencing HRP. Accurate and timely human resource information system helps in getting better quality personnel.

HRP is required to ensure that suitable candidates should be appointed at the right kind of job. So these are some of the factors that affect the human resource planning.

Limitations of Human Resource Planning

It is very difficult to ascertain future manpower requirements of an organization, as future is always uncertain.

It is more relevant to the countries that face the problem of scarcity of human resources.

It is a time consuming and costlier process.

It is beneficial in the organizations that adopt a professional approach and at the same time are conscious about the changing environment.

HRP is beneficial where adequate skilled manpower is available.

HRP is also made difficult in the organizations that have a very high labor turnover.

I have this question to answer in a case study as well. All I can think of right now is the fact that Colgate had no management prerogatives, and that "Darkie" toothpaste was racially offensive to U.S. minorities and civil right groups.

The ongoing trend in organizations which are becoming less focused on jobs and more focused on employee activities that are driven by participation in teams or the ability to accomplish changing objectives rather than simply fulfilling the requirements of an existing job. This comes from the realization that focusing jobs as the focal point for employee activities is not very effective (Jex, 1999).
