Illustrate Placement

Question

According to Pigors and Myers what do you mean by Placement?

Answer 1

According to Pigors and Myers “Placement consists in matching what the supervisor has reason to think the new employee can do with what the job demands (job requirements), imposes (in strain, working conditions, etc.), and offers (in the form of pay rate, interest, promotional possibilities, companionship with other, etc.)”. They can additionally describe that it is not as easy as to equalise all those factors for a new worker who is quiet in many ways an unknown quantity. For this reason, the first placement usually carries with it the status of probationer.
