Write a report about a human resource management (HRM) issue affecting your organisation or an organisation you know well.
The HRM issue you choose to write about must be one of the following: job analysis and design, recruitment and selection, or employee retention. In your report make sure to include:
A brief description of the organisation and the HRM issue you have selected.
An analysis of the HRM issue. Describe the issue in detail. Explain why the issue needs improving in the organisation and make a case for change.
In your analysis, compare a practice in your own organisation with industry best-practice, or another organisation's practice.
A set of recommendations to enable improvement or change.
Explain what could be done to bring about improvement.
These recommendations should follow logically from the analysis above; they should not be an unconnected after-thought.
It is important to demonstrate your knowledge about the HRM issue and to clearly reference your sources. Read about your issue in journal articles (using the AIB Online Library), books (including the textbook), industry reports, business literature, etc. Remember to note down your sources and reference them in the report.
In order to do well you need to structure your discussion appropriately, use quality references, and clearly link recommendations to the description and analysis presented earlier in the report.
This assessment is an individual assessment (i.e. this is not a group assessment). Please ensure you avoid collusion and other practices which compromise individual assessment work
