The link between organization strategy and human resource activities

The strategy of the organization is a process that is step by step of realizing the ways to achieve the goals of the organization that are long term if the resources are made available(Kew, Stredwick, & Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development. 2013). It can be said to be the process that is systematic in reviewing the chances and the threats that are in the business environment. This will help enhance the efficiency and the productivity of the PAC Resources organization. This is a name that is given so as to make sense in some activities like the setting of goals and the formulation of strategy.

On the other hand, the planning of the human resource entrains estimating the demands of the future and the human resources supply for accomplishing the organization goals. HR planning contains all the human resource management activities for example HR forecasting, information collection, the making of policy, making new recruits, training of workers and the development of the organization(Werner, & DeSimone, 2009). Furthermore, it includes motivation and the human resource development within the organization. These activities assists in the HR preparation and in their planning for the exact number and the types of people that are being targeted.

Human resource development

This is an area that is under the management by the director in charge of training Kellie Stephens who oversees other two employees. These are another trainer and an assistant for administration who is coordinating the training of the logistics of the PAC programs. One of the problems areas of the human resource is the inefficiency of the HR department to properly update and ensure the improvement of the performance of the PAC systems of management (Brennan, & International Institute of Business Analysis. 2009). Another problem area is how to manage the training program at the PAC Resource Inc. HR department.

Safety and Security

The management of the security and the safety of the PAC is under the leadership of Jose Vasquez. The main problem area is the freshness of Mr. Jose only being a new person in the leadership area. He is just come from the College and may not be able to take on the post with the greatest quality that is need to hold his office(Baumgartner, 2009). Another area that have been of concern is the high instances at the PAC claiming for their compensation. This is majorly done on the syndrome of the carpel tunnel by the employees(Baumgartner, 2009).Finally, another problem is the unavailability of Jose because of his ergonomics audit involvement.

Staffing

The department of staffing is being led by Kim Wong. He has overseen the company grow from a number less than 100 to a current number of 835 employees who are on fulltime employment. The problem in this department is it lacking diversity. The lack of a layoff plan is a big problem that the organization is facing. The management is even worried that in case of a layoff of the employees who are new recruits would greatly harm the reputation of PAC.

Compensation and Benefits

The PAC has a tradition of paying at rate of the market and conducting of a survey of the salaries in an interval of three years. This is done to ensure that the organization remains to be as competitive as ever. This is a tradition that has greatly served the PAC better in the years that they have practiced it. The benefits for the employees is a problem that the organization has had to cope with. This is because of how expensive these benefits have become with the passing of time.

Employee Relations

Steve Wilson is the one who is in full control of the relations of the employees. The unionization of the employees’ one of the greatest problems that PAC Resources Inc. have had to cope with. The management is aware of the possibility of unionization under the current leadership and is worried with the cost cutting process turning the undercurrent to become a landslide.
