The topic I have chosen for this TMA from the study section of block 5 of my course is
resourcing. I am going to implement my learning and I am showing my understating for the
topic by the practical implication to the Human Resourcing Limited. Human Resourcing is a
pe
recruitment consultancy that specialises in recruiting Human Resource and Training
professionals, predominantly for the South Wales and South West market.

Resourcing:
According to this topic resourcing the first thing after studying it in this course we get it is
HR function that goes about resourcing an organisation with people, and the various related
ra
issues that need to be considered. In this topic we are basically covering five major things
which are: HR planning, contracts of employment, recruitment, selection and retention.
pG
According to this study we are introduced to the topic of resourcing by exploring above five
ingredients of resourcing. Resourcing refers to activities hiring new employees for an
organization, make contracts with the employees, how to retain their loyalty with the firms.
Basically it covers all the aspects which are related to the hiring people to work with your
organization. By using this you hire people who are best fit to the place for which they have
To
been chosen. For this different techniques and HR planning is done. It is a systematic way to
get appropriate people. For example in our chosen organization named as human resourcing
limited uses these techniques and tools for the recruitment of people foe their organization
and as for the other organizations. They are expert in hiring suitable and potential people for
specific jobs. That is why other company request their services for the human resourcing. It is
because they use such techniques like; Job Profiler™ is a powerful tool designed to take the
guesswork out of the most intangible element in any recruitment process....personality, online

in HR and personnel recruitment. As they says, “we listen ....listen to your requirements
....listen to your timescales and budgets ....listen to your concerns ....listen to how you like a
recruitment partner to act.” This is because they use the five ingredients of the resourcing in
an efficient manner that they are the first priority for other organizations to recruit personnel
for them.

Outline and critically evaluate a key strategy, event, initiative or problem specifically

performance indicator And by these means they get the employees for the specific
organization. The problem few years ago was seen that the some employees did not come fit
ra
to the organization and they raised a turnover in the organizational level. The most of the
companies contacted back to the human resourcing as they were considering it the human
resourcing fault that they did not get the appropriate employees for their specific
pG
organizational environment and needs so that the selected personnel get adjusted with the
organization. So for this purpose the human resources developed the NVQ. In this they assess
the overall constraints and traits of an employee and put it on the database then an
unparalleled database of candidates is generated that clients can access without any initial

cost – only ultimately incurring a fee should we successfully fill your vacancy. To make this
whole process clean and error free human resourcing arranged internal and external verifiers.
Internal verifiers are designated to carry out quality checks on the work of NVQ Assessors to
ensure assessments are fair and consistent with the assessment criteria. External verifiers visit
NVQ centres to ensure the assessment process is carried out properly. In this way the process
of recruitment was polished in this way that the process of resourcing make and implemented
in the most significant and proficient manner that the right person would go the right place.
As the critically viewed this specific event accompanied with the problem we see that there

are basically five functions; HR planning, contracts, recruitment, selection and retention.
Firstly the human resourcing was simply having a data base of the employees who send their
CV and they simply put them in the database after a little bit evaluation. And when a
company hires them for the purpose of resourcing, they simple evaluate the qualifications,
requirements and recruit the person for the firm. But when there raised the problem with
rs
retaining problem, the human resourcing thought to re-evaluate their processes of operations.
The main problem that they get in their old system was; they were having problem with their
Human resource planning. Actually they do not properly evaluate the environment and needs
pe
of the firm. Similarly they don’t have proper look over the future HR needs. After getting this
they emphasize these four components majorly that are named as analysing the environment;
forecasting future HR needs; analysing the current situation and projecting forward; and
Pa
reconciliation, decisions and plans. These all needs and processes are now being handled by
the internal and external verifiers as defined above and then they developed the NVQ that
helps them to have a better employment options. As the other recruitment and selection
process were evaluated then we saw that there is no such as problem that can be a cause to
de
the problem of retention. All we found that the problem was relating to the HR planning that
further goes on and caused a big flaw in the retention of the employment.

Question 3:
Why is your chosen HRM topic important in your chosen organisation and others like it in
rs
the same sector? Critically analyse and discuss the issues you have described for the practice
of HRM in your chosen organisation and others like it. Illustrate your answer with examples?
pe
Resourcing and Recruitment is almost central to any management process and failure in
recruitment can create difficulties for any company including an adverse effect on its
Pa
profitability and inappropriate levels of staffing or skills. Inadequate recruitment can lead to
labour shortages, or problems in management decision making. Resourcing is however not
just a simple selection process and requires management decision making and extensive
planning to employ the most suitable manpower. Competition among business organisations
de
for recruiting the best potential has increased focus on innovation, and management decision
making and the selectors aim to recruit only the best candidates who would suit the corporate
culture, ethics and climate specific to the organisation. The human resourcing limited is the
ra
company which offers its services to the other organization for the purpose of the recruiting
Human Resource and Training professionals. It uses Successful recruitment methods include
a thorough analysis of the job and the labour market conditions and interviews as well as
pG
psychometric tests to determine the potentialities of applicants. HRL also focus on interviews
and assessment with emphasis on job analysis, emotional intelligence in new or
inexperienced applicants and corporate social responsibility (CSR). Other techniques of
selection that have been described include various types of interviews, in tray exercise, role
To
play, group activity, etc.
It basically focuses on all these as because resourcing is the backbone to the management
process of any organization. Similarly the process of recruitment does not however end with
application and selection of the right people but involves maintaining and retaining the
employees chosen. Despite a well drawn plan on recruitment and selection and involvement
of qualified management team, recruitment processes followed by companies can face
significant obstacles in implementation. Theories of HRM may provide insights on the best
approaches to recruitment although companies will have to use their in house management

many tools and methods to have better recruitment and retention of employees. HRL satisfies

way to recruit employees. That’s why some of its clients have to face much more loses due to
the unexpected employees turnover. So the pressure was increasing on them. As the most of

the operation of this firm are related to the resourcing, so they took decision to change it
according to their requirements. By many other means and way this resourcing topic is much
more related and important to the human resourcing limited and many other companies like

Company reputation as a business
 Company liability for claims of unfair discrimination
 Achieving the "buy-in" from the candidates with the skills you need
In short if we examine the companies like HRL; the resourcing is the basic business of them.
They have not to be good but to be best in this field. Failing to do so, they are going to lose
their good will, profits and futuristic progress too. It is all because resourcing is the central to
any management process.
