Assignment 1: Staffing Plan for a Growing Business
Due Week 6 and worth 280 points
Please choose from one (1) of the scenarios below. Note: The scenario
that you choose in this assignment will be the one you continue to use
for Assignment 2.
Scenario 1
You are a Human Resources Manager of an expanding technology company
consisting of 170 employees that develops and distributes small
electronic devices. Over the past two (2) years, a research group
formed, designed, and built prototypes of small remote surveillance
cameras used for security. Recently, your company won a contract to
build and provide these remote surveillance cameras to various
government agencies. The contract will begin with your company supplying
these cameras to agencies within your home state. If all orders are
fulfilled sufficiently, the contract will be expanded to supplying
agencies outside of your home state.
For the immediate future, you will need to secure a larger facility and
hire more staff to sustain the first part of the contract. This staff
will consist of ten (10) Assembly Technicians, one (1) Certified Quality
Control Engineer, one (1) Contract Administrator, and one (1) Office
Support Paraprofessional. Meanwhile, there is a contract clause
requiring that you provide a staffing plan in order to ensure future
product deliveries and sustain the possible future growth.
Scenario 2
You are a former certified education administrator who departed your
former position to become the owner of a small, in-home day care
consisting of you and a part-time assistant where you care for children
from age three (3) to age ten (10). Over the course of time, your
demographic population has increased due to significant business growth
that has resulted in many families relocating to your area. With more
businesses projected to move to the area and the building of new housing
developments, it is projected that this growth could be long term.
You have decided that this is a good opportunity to expand your day care
business as you have received many inquiries for childcare. In order to
comply with your home state regulations, you will require a larger
facility and will need to hire additional staff in order to sustain the
larger demand for day care. This staff will consist of five (5)
Certified Day Care Professionals, one (1) Registered Nurse Professional,
five (5) After-School Assistants, and one (1) Office Support
Paraprofessional. You have secured approval for a bank loan and qualify
for future loans for future expansion if your current endeavor is
successful. Meanwhile, the state in which you operate has requested that
you provide a staffing plan before it will issue licensure for your
expanded capacity.
Note: You may create and / or make all necessary assumptions needed for the completion of these assignments.
Select one (1) of the scenarios and write a four to five (4-5) page paper in which you:
Identify two (2) types of staffing models that could apply to your
chosen scenario and determine which model would be best suited for
efficiency, productivity, and possible future growth. Examine the
significant effect of each identified staffing model on processes that
may be occurring within the organization (e.g., outsourcing, contingent
workers, consulting firms, etc.).
Predict the major potential legal issues that you may encounter when
establishing equal employment opportunities and diversity within the
workplace while still aiming to acquire employees with the needed
certifications and credentials. Next, explain the method of achieving
transparency within your staffing model. Justify your response.
Specify three (3) tasks that you need to perform to identify, analyze,
and develop job requirements and task statements that you will include
in formalized job descriptions. Next, predict the frequency with which
you would need to review and adjust these job descriptions as your
company progresses. Provide a rationale for your response.
Describe three (3) methods to deal with high employee turnover and the
availability of employees with required knowledge, skills, or abilities.
Next, describe the primary manner in which the described
