Three stages of HR Planning

HR planning systems should support an organization’s business plan. Businesses must have a precise blend of knowledge, skills, and abilities among employees.

HR Planning can be separated into three forecasting periods:

  1. Short-range planning involves projecting workforce staffing requirements.
  2. Middle-range planning involves a mix of both short- and long-term forecasting.
  3. Long-range planning requires more strategic analysis and environmental scanning.

The supreme test of a human resource planning system is whether it provides the right number of qualified employees at the right time.
