The main purpose of the induction training new employees on how the company functions and the duties they are supposed to undertake. It further gives the hired employees a sense of belonging.
(b) A company may be required to hire extra employees for the reasons that, the existing employees are overworked when the customer service is suffering, and also when the HR department expects the business to grow in size.
(c) The consequences of failing to undertake a plan for recruitment requirements can result in unproductive recruitment and selection process, and this can lead to the hiring of unsuitable employees. They can upset the confidence and productivity of good employees (Rees, 2017). It can also result in astronomical costs towards the company.
(d) The main significance of developing the job description and recognizing the selection criteria are: to make sure that the organization will employ the most suitable candidate for the job. Through the process, the interviewers can clarify more about the position, that is, the kind of employee they are looking for.
(e) The main importance of integrating and inducting employees is to help the new employee in forming a good rapport with the organization. A good induction training program enables the unified incorporation of the recruit, assisting him in contributing to the organization efficiently; therefore, it assists the corporation as well as the hired employee.
(f) The HR life cycle is a structure of the stages workers go through. Each stage has its encounters and prospects. The first step involves the attraction of potential employees to the company. These are done through employer branding, and it successfully highlights qualities that make the organization a better place to work. The attraction stage is followed by the recruitment step. It involves hiring the right people in the organization, which is very important for the progress and efficiency of any occupational. After the recruitment step, the hired employees are introduced to the organization through learning the job duties and establishing relationships with his or her coworkers, and this represents the third step (Noe et al. 2018). The fourth step is the motivation stage. The organization offers employees an opportunity to reenergize themselves, through recognizing and rewarding the best employees through the evaluation and the celebration stages. Lastly, the cycle ends with the separation stage, where the employees separate themselves from the company. Immediately employees leave the organization, other employees must be recruited, and the cycle begins again.
