HEP: 4375/CRICOS Provider Code 00246M © Laureate International Universities 2016 Page 2 of 4 Task 1: Defining Human Resource Management The role of human resources can be defined in many different ways. Your task is to select a business of your choice, preferably the company you currently work for or a company you have previously worked for. If you do not have previous work experience, select a company that has information readily available on its website or where you may have access to interview an employee. Provide the following information;  A brief description of the company – what they do and the size of the company in terms of employees  A brief description of the type of employees with reference to Atkinson's flexible firm model.  Does it have a dedicated HR Department? If not, explain where the responsibilities for HR functions are situated in the company.  What sort of approach to HR can you observe about the company?  Consider the strategic human resource management model proposed by Nankervis et al (2014) – are there any roles that are not undertaken by the human resource team in your chosen company? For example, they may outsource some of the HR functions.  At each of the different levels (strategic, operational and functional) describe the HR functions that are performed.  A diagram may be useful to demonstrate the different HR roles and responsibilities in the organisation. Task 2: Recruitment and selection Search the journal database to locate a recent (post 2006) academic journal article that discusses recruitment and selection issues in Australia and one from another country. Compare and contrast the differences described in the journal articles. Write a 500 word literature review of the journal article to include in your portfolio. HEP: 4375/CRICOS Provider Code 00246M © Laureate International Universities 2016 Page 3 of 4 Task 3: Retention and development Choose an industry you recently worked in (or are planning to work) Option 1 Research the most common reasons that people stay in their jobs, i.e, what are the 'retention levers'? Be sure to use accurate, reliable sources. Option 2 If your chosen industry is hospitality or another industry that suffers from high staff 'wastage' you may discuss the issues that relate to the high wastage. Your response should demonstrate depth of research and high level of understanding of the issues relating to retention. Write a one page response on either option 1 or 2. Task 4: Performance management Develop a performance management plan for a chosen position within an organisation. Include;  a copy of the job description and a brief overview of the company  a detailed description of the most suitable type of performance review method  a justification as to 'why' the chosen review method is the most suitable  a table demonstrating you have identified some of the pros and cons of your chosen performance review method relevant to the specific position you have chosen. A copy and paste from another source is not acceptable. HEP: 4375/CRICOS Provider Code 00246M © Laureate International Universities 2016 Page 4 of 4 Marking Criteria  Responses are accurately and clearly communicated.  Use of theoretical knowledge to support responses.  Theory is supported with appropriate references that are cited correctly both in-text and in the reference list.

For your Assignment 2 (Group) – Extract from Subject Outline
Strategy development

Word limit: 2,000 words (±10%)

Marks: 20

Due Date: 5 pm Friday, Week 11

(Soft copy to be uploaded on BB AND hard copy along with a FULL safeassign report need to be submitted)

Use the Theory relating to Adaptation, Aggregation and Arbitrage to explain how companies from the following industries have used this theory for the pursuit of their businesses:

Computer industry (hardware or software)
ICT industry (Information Communications Technology)
Pharmaceutical industry
Food / Beverage industry
Steel Industry
Manufacturing of heavy equipment
Students should choose 2 industries from the list above and 2 companies in each industry (4 companies in total).

This is a group assignment. Every member of the group is expected to be able to discuss all areas of the report. You should meet many times and discuss the issues identified in the report.

Suggested Structure:

Introduction
Body: a paragraph heading for each of Adaptation, Aggregation and Arbitrage containing discussion of ideas using your research outcomes of the 4 companies studied. OR you can focus on the industry-level analysis using the 4 companies researched. How has each industry been pursuing some or all the elements of the ‘AAA’ framework? Use the table below as a guide.
Industry 1 (Companies A, B) Industry 2 (Companies C, D)
Adaptation
Aggregation
Arbitrage
Conclusion
You do not need to define the concepts. Descriptive material has negligible value and should be avoided. We are seeking analysis, discussion and recommendation, enriched by ideas found in journal articles.

In business you will be expected to produce short well-argued reports. This is where you demonstrate that skill.

All ideas in the report must be referenced using Harvard Referencing (in-text citations and full references at the back).

Assessment Criteria:

Demonstrated knowledge of the Model ‘AAA’ ( /8)
