Synopsis

This volume provides a comprehensive treatment of the staffing function--defined by the authors as an integrated system of planning for obtaining, using, and developing human resources. Written as an on the job reference source for personnel professionals, the book emphasizes a practical rather than theoretical approach to the subject of staffing. All three authors are university professors with considerable research, publication, and consulting experience on human resource issues, thus, their book is well researched and informative, with a field-based, applied focus. Choice Beginning with an overview of staffing and its overall role in the organization, the authors move to thorough treatments of staffing legislation and regulation, federal court decisions affecting staffing, and the uniform guidelines, adverse impact and affirmative action programs. They then turn their attention to job analysis, human resource planning, the recruiting process, employee selection, selection tests, interviewing, and performance appraisal. Concluding chapters address career planning and development within the organization and human resource administration. Numerous tables and figures a well as a convenient checklist for evaluating the staffing function complete this important contribution to human resources literature.
