The human resources team ensures new staff members can meet the needs of the organization, have a positive transition into the company and have the immediate necessary skills to perform the task at hand. HR eases the transition by providing orientation and, in many cases, a booklet of employee expectations.
The HR team also manages the staffing aspects of an employee leaving the firm. In this instance, the role and purpose of staffing is offering an exit interview to understand why the employee is leaving and under what conditions. Such interviews provide the HR team with pertinent trends, such as employees routinely leaving to work with competitors. Another ancillary role of staffing is ensuring the organization has enough workers to meet its labor demands. To do this successfully, strategic human resources personnel partake in the forecasting process with the management team.
