Staffing is the process of acquiring, deploying, and retaining a qualified workforce. It involves human resource planning, recruitment, selection of employees, orientation, training, performance appraisals, compensation and benefits to create a competent and high-performing workforce. The effectiveness of the staffing process depends on using appropriate selection devices during interviews, providing new employee orientation and training, conducting performance reviews, and offering competitive compensation and benefits to attract, motivate, and retain valuable talent. When implemented correctly, staffing can result in a well-matched and committed workforce that helps the organization achieve its strategic goals.
