...HUMAN RESOURCES STRATEGIES – RESOURCING STRATEGY Marinaş Cristian Puia Ramona Ştefania Academia de Studii Economice Bucureşti, PiaŃa Romană nr.6, Sector 1, Bucureşti, +4021 319 19 00, Ramona.puia@man.ase.ro In this article the authors make an abstract of the main human resources strategies, presenting them in relation with the global strategy of the organisation. The accent falls on resourcing strategy, one of the main sources of competitive advantage. Resourcing strategy is not just about recruitment and selection. It is concerned with any means available to meet the needs of the firm for certain skills and behaviours. A strategy to enlarge the skill base may start with recruitment and selection but would also extend into learning and development programmes to enhance skills and methods of rewarding people for the aquisition of extra skills. These statements want to emphasise the strong links between different human resource strategies. Key words: strategic management, human resources, resoucing strategy, skills. The last years’ research proved that the main priority of organisation strategy and strategic management is to secure a long-term future of the company. It is certain that such a purpose you can not achieve by practicing a bad human resource management and not take into consideration the strategic role of human resources.

...than a set of activities relating to the coordination of an organisation’s human resources. HRM is a major contributor to the success of an enterprise because it is in a key position ‘to affect customers, business results and ultimately shareholder value’. Stated by Gratton (2000), ‘The new sources of sustainable competitive advantage available to organisations have people at the centre – their creativity and talent, their inspirations and hopes, their dreams and excitement. The companies that flourish in this decade will do so because they are able to provide meaning and purpose, a context and frame that encourages individual potential to flourish and grow’. Stone (2013) mentioned that HRM is either part of the problem or part of the solution in gaining the productive contribution of people.

...2014/2015 CIPD Certificate in Human Resources Practice Unit 3 – 3RAI Recording, Analysing and Using HR Information Diane Kubok Organisations need to collect data as a point of reference to be able to retrieve information whenever it is needed. There is also need for data as a legal requirement. Two examples of data collected:- Attendance – recording staff absences is essential to an organisation to identify true absences i.e. illness against identifying those who may choose to take time off for other reasons, i.e. dissatisfaction with role, dissatisfaction with management, lack of motivation and accountability. Many organisations use the Bradford Score to calculate frequent short term absences in order to monitor cost and reasoning behind each absence and identify those who may benefit from Occupational Health support. Medical Tests – many organisations may have a requirement for medical tests to be performed for compliance with health and safety, i.e. skin tests, eye site, and general fitness, for the roles including lifting and carrying, along with white finger tests for those using vibrations tools. Methods for storing record and the benefits:- Computerised HR information systems: Advantages – large data base capable of holding a large amount of information that can be separated by sections for easy analysis and retrieval.
