...University of Phoenix Material Week One Individual Assignment: New Health Medical Systems Memo As an HR Consultant to New Health Medical Systems, you have been asked to evaluate the company’s staffing strategy to determine how well it aligns with the new strategic goal and the requirement to fill 35 new positions. Scenario New Health Medical Systems is a large hospital and healthcare system in the southwestern part of the United States. The Board of Directors recently announced a new strategic direction to become a regional center for critically ill patients. As a part of that strategy, the organization has opened a new cardiovascular unit, where patients can receive care for heart attacks, strokes and other types of cardiovascular disease. The organization was quickly able to recruit a quality physician to head the unit. Additional professional staff was also relatively easy to find; however, finding qualified technicians has become much more difficult than originally anticipated. The problem doesn't seem to be so much in terms of being attractive to candidates, but rather a lack of skilled technicians in the immediate region. Most of the skilled technicians are already employed, and are not actively seeking jobs with other organizations. The director of staffing for the organization has been asked to create a new staffing strategy to fill the 35 new positions in this department. After considering alternatives, she is recommending the following. 1. Place advertisements...

...In chapter one the first key point is the challenges that HR managers have. To list the challenges they are: Going global, embracing technology, managing change, developing human capital, responding to the market, and containing cost. In my studies I have learned that HR faces many challenges. Along with these challenges there are many functions that an HR manager must be able to do. HR managers also have a lot of responsibility. First and foremost are the laws that deal with employees. Diversity is a big thing now and to make sure that a company has a good mixture of culture and race is very difficult. Some other responsibilities are advice and counsel, service, policy formulation and implementation, and employee advocacy. HR executives must be able to consider problems from the viewpoint of line managers and supervisors but also skill in communication with the managers and supervisors. HR managers also engage in activities such as recruiting, selecting, testing, planning and conducting training programs, and hearing employee concerns and complaints. They also propose and draft new policies or policy revisions to cover recurring problems or to prevent anticipated problems. As a HR manager you must listen to the employees’ concerns and represent their needs to managers.

...ORGANIZATIONAL DIFFERENCES IN MANAGERIAL COMPENSATION AND FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE After doing researches for 14,000 top and middle level managers and 200 organizations, managerial compensation decisions are made regarding base pay, bonus pay, and eligibility for long term incentive. Findings indicate that contingent pay was associated with financial performance, but base pay are not. The study examined both the determinants and consequences of organizational differences in pay level and pay mix among a national group of top and middle level managers. There are three components determine the level of compensation, such as pay mix, or the extent of variable pay, in terms of the relative amounts of short-term bonuses, long-term incentives, and base salary in an individual’s pay. Determinants of Compensation: Employee and Job Characteristics: Consistent with Human capital theory, there is empirical evidence that the number of years of education and labor market experience have explained much of the variance in their pay levels. The higher in an organizational performance hierarchy a job is the greater potential impact on organizational performance its incumbent is likely to have. Level of base pay is positively related to an employee’s human capital investment and level of job responsibility. Pay mix is positively related to an employee’s human capital investment and level of job responsibility. Organizational Variables: More recent examinations of organizational differences...

...Introduction The primary responsibility of Human Resource [HR] management is to manage the workforce of an organization with an emphasis on minimizing financial risk while maximizing profit for the business. One aspect of minimizing risk is ensuring that the workforce is performing their jobs efficiently and effectively. So, the question is how do we gauge the efficiency and effectiveness of the workforce? The answer is, through the implementation of a competent performance appraisal system. In light of the results of the recent employee survey conducted, there are both real and perceived issues that exist between HR and the management team. The lack of cohesion within the organization has resulted in low employee morale which affects performance and ultimately, profitability. The purpose of this presentation is to explain the merits of a good performance appraisal system, for both individuals and teams of the organization and to show how it will help to resolve the problems uncovered by the survey. Moreover, my intention is to describe the process for assessing team performance and the differentiating factors for executing an appraisal for an individual versus a team in an organization. Lastly, the board of directors asked for a report with regard to succession planning in the last board meeting. I want to describe the benefits of succession planning and propose a solution for the implementation of succession planning in our organization. Performance Appraisals Performance...

Maersk's was experiencing a rise in Employee turnover, had become a publicly traded company and competition was on the increase. HR had to analyze the situation, form a strategy and implement it. Maersk was expanding globally and trends in the broader market became increasingly mobile. The work force changed, talent, needs and practices also changed. Finding and retaining high-quality talent was becoming a bigger challenge. One advantage of hiring internally is that promoted employees are already familiar with the policies and culture. Hiring internally may also improve employee morale and loyalty. Disadvantages of hiring internally are potential narrowing of thinking, stale ideas (inbreeding), smaller talent pool (fewer applicants) and internal politics will occur (possible discontent of rejected applicants, new subordinates may not respect new boss). One advantage of hiring externally is that new candidates can provide new ideas or fresh perspectives. Another is...
