Human resource planning is a process by which an organization ensures it has the right number and type of employees at the right time to meet organizational objectives. An HR plan is integrated with the company's strategic plan to forecast future human resource needs based on factors like expansion, diversification, or downsizing. The HR planning process involves assessing current human resources, forecasting future demand, implementing supply strategies, and preparing replacement charts to minimize gaps between demand and supply of personnel.
