If the employers want to remain competitive, they must con
stantly consider how they до business, including recruiting and
selecting processes. They must also make sure their employees have up-to-date training relevant to the company's business strategy Human resources management must be careflly planned.
Large companies usually have high structured liuman-resource; departments which до all the recruitment and selection of employees, based on criteria previously identified by the company some of the companies draw up а profile of their employees, comparing the work with the key skills that are required to accomplish it.
Many small-and-medium-sized businesses don't pay enough attention to the hiring process. For them, hiring is just one task
among many others. Some don't have time and hire someone in а state of crisis, to solve an immediate problem, the others don't have resources to figure out what exactly they want in an employee, to describe the job properly. In both cases, manpower specialist; may offer some practical advice and assistance to employers Companies should not hesitate to get professional help.

ON BUSINESS 1N RUSSIAN
Для многих понятие рыночная экономика неотделимо от понятия безработица. Однако на любую проблему можно посмотреть под разным углом зрения. Не только работоспособные граждане испытывают трудности в поискак работы, но и работодатели, и даже целые отрасти могут ощущать сильную нехватку рабочей силы.
Наиболее остро данная проблема стоитперед бизнесменами, занятыми в сфере общественного питания. И в России, и в Голландии, и в Соединенных Штатах на дверях кафе, ресторанов и закусочных можно увидеть объявление "Требуется официантка". Текучесть кадров в ресторанном бизнесе в Соединенных Штатах превышает 200%. Подобное положение вещей вынуждает владельцев ресторанов и закусочных переходить на более агрессивные методы поиска и вербовки персонала. Объявления о возможности работы на условиях неполного рабочего дня появляются на досках объявлений в школах и колледжах. Объявления размещаются в интернете, вагонах метро, автобусах и трамваях, которыми в основном пользуются молодые и малообеспеченные граждане. Вы можете встретить подобные объявления в местах общественных пар
ковок, в универсамах.
Владельцы ресторанов быстрого питания предлагают работникам, помимо базовых льгот, сопутствующие льготы и
привилегии. Владельцы субсидируют приобретение работниками форменной одежды, обеспечивают бесплатным питанием, организуют увеселительные и спортивные мероприятия, проводят розыгрыши призов. Стартовая зарплата обычно пересматривается в сторону ее увеличения по истечении трех первых месяцев работы на данном предприятии общественного питания
При наборе персонала акцент делается на постоянное улучшение условий труда в данной отрасли, вазможность продвижения по службе, возможность выплаты премий (бонусов) и получение дополнительных доходов нерегулярного характера. В сознание нанимаемых работников методично закладывается мысль о том, что сфера общественного питания - это та отрасль, где можно приобрести навыки и знания, которые окажутся полезными в дальнейшей деятельности, и та отрасль, где можно сделать карьеру. Поможет ли эта новая политика в области найма решить проблему занятости в отрасли - noкажет время.
