HRP focuses on aligning human resources with organizational strategy at both the macro and micro levels. At the macro level, HRP examines employee policies and their effect on management. Micro-level HRP develops tactics to help the organization achieve its goals by ensuring it has the right number and mix of skilled employees. Key aspects of micro-level HRP include demand forecasting to identify future needs, manpower supply analysis to determine gaps in the available workforce, and manpower planning to develop strategies for recruiting, retaining, and reducing employees.
