Staffing Metrics Evaluation
Resource: Strategic Staffing, Ch. 13
Staffing metrics can be short-term or long-term, and efficiency- or effectiveness-oriented. Short-term metrics can be used as leading indicators to gauge a company’s ability to place the right people in the right jobs at the right time. Long-term metrics are best for evaluating the effectiveness of a staffing system because they drive the financial impact of staffing for the organization.
Choose an organization with which you are familiar.
Evaluate in 700 to 1,050 words three metrics that are – or should be – used to determine how well the staffing process meets the needs of the organization.
Describe the metrics selected for discussion.
Assess how these help the organization determine effectiveness.
Use the information available in Strategic Staffing, Ch. 13, and supplement it with your own research.
Cite any sources according to APA formatting guidelines.
