Plan Your Resources In The Short Term And Long Term

Human resources is often the largest expenditure a company makes

, hence it is important that they recruit the right type of people and the right number of people. However, the larger and more diverse your company, often the more difficult and less effective this exercise can become. Hence it is important that you use the support of a strong resource scheduling software.

Often companies will estimate the number and type of employees they need to recruit on a yearly basis, this may be according to company trends and past patterns in recruitment. Although this is important, it isnt enough, as it also allows for a wide margin of error and inefficiency. Recruitment needs to be considered from two angles. The first is the short term angle, which is a reactive form of recruitment, and can be adhoc. The second is the medium to long term angle, which is a proactive form of recruitment based on the companys future vision. SAVIOM Employee Scheduling Software addresses recruitment at both levels.

In the short term, Saviom enables managers to identify the immediate requirement for resource recruitment. It allows managers to easily calculate resources that are available in the future and resources required for jobs planned in the future. This information is presented in an easy to understand graphical format, and is also provided in a report that clearly communicates the gap between the supply and demand of resources. Furthermore Saviom also can streamline processes for adhoc recruitment based on last minute requirements. Such information is critical, and must be noted and acted upon, because understaffed projects are not only unhealthy for employees working on the projects, but unhealthy for a companys reputation.

In the longer term, Saviom is essential in supporting recruitment for companies in order to help them with their long term strategic goals. For example if a company wants to expand to other countries, or diversify into other industries, then it needs to invest in the right employees that will take it in the desired strategic directions. This requires foresight, proactive planning and feeding this information to resource managers and HR to ensure that the right resources are recruited.

Finally, some important points to remember before recruiting is to:

Retrain current employees to acquire new set of skills to maximise the efficiency of existing staff.

Provide better incentives to retain people with rare skill sets as they can be hard to come by.

Build and implement a proper recruitment plan based on the resourcing gaps i.e. plan to hire people at the appropriate time.

SAVIOM Employee Scheduling Software is essential in making sure that you recruit the right resource.
