  • 51 Accesses

Abstract

The estimation of future personnel requirement is a very important and also a very difficult phase of the manpower planning process. In this chapter we consider manpower requirement forecasting, assuming that it is independent of the manpower availability forecast. In this way one obtains a good starting point for the matching phase, which may result in adaptations of both manpower requirement and availability forecasts. In chapter 5 the matching phase will be considered in some detail.
