Improving efficiency in managing personnel reserve

Abstract

Company performance on strategic goals is significantly dependent on the level of qualification of employees and particularly managers as a key resource determining not only growth and development, but even the existence of the organization. Securing staff with high qualification grades is further complicated by certain external conditions faced by enterprises, including the lack of competent professionals, declining labor quality, etc. Thus, the formation of personnel reserve may be nearly the only way to provide the enterprise with the qualified staff with appropriate level of competences. The authors have explored, aligned and classified the indicators of performance of a personnel reserve. Based on the above, the conclusion was drawn on the need to extend the performance indicator system to include competence-related indicators and to introduce indicators of optimal composition of personnel reserve. The proposals were tested for a transport company and a follow-up program of measures was drawn offering the most precise solutions to the problems of personnel reserve management.
