Tesco People Resourcing

Introduction

I will be analysing Tesco’s approach to employee resourcing. In this report, I will be talking about Tesco’s approach to human resource planning, recruitment and selection methods, reward and performance management practices and issues regarding diversity and how health and safety are managed.

Human Resource Planning

Human resource planning is about finding the right resources to meet organisational goals. It also requires them to increase employee retention and be able to recruit new member for their organisation.

Human resource planning involves developing a plan to finding the right skills and methods to meet organisational needs. This means they need to find the right person for the right job and to do this they will need to develop a job description and post a
