How does that compare to last year? · Staff mix – how many casuals/part time/full time do we have? · Skill sets – what skills and knowledge we currently have on payroll? · What do we need to meet the strategic objectives over the next 12 months? How many staff? With what skills? · How are we doing on labourspend against plan? · Are we an employer of choice? If yes what do we do that we should continue? If not what can we do? · Are we paying any overtime? · Is our workforce diverse enough? · What do exit interviews tell us about why staff leave? · Do we have a succession plan in place for all positions? · Is anyone leaving or retiring soon that we know of? · What contingency plans do we have in place to deal with staff shortages? Analysis of external labour market: · What trends in the external labour market affect us? · Is their labour with required skills available? · Where can we source labour from? · Is there training going on that will increase pool of labour? |
As you can see within your notes the conversation didn’t follow any clear path. Your task now is to create a report for the managing director that answers all of the above questions in a structured manner
