Staff allocation planning

As a tool of human resources development, the concept of planning the allocation of staff can be applied in two ways: In a horizontal perspective, it refers to assigning a staff member to a different subject area without changing his/her position in the hierarchy (breadth of assignment/rotation).

Seen in a vertical perspective, it means improving a staff member’s formal position in the administration hierarchy, usually through promotion. The employing agency is interested in managing the allocation of staff at various career steps, in order to fill positions to ensure that tasks are performed efficiently and that possibilities for career advancement are transparent for staff.
