People are an organisation’s most valuable resource. The effectiveness of an organization depends on its staff. Good quality work requires good quality people. An organisation which uses a fair and effective recruitment process is more likely to employ the right person for each job. An organisation that has a poor recruitment process is unlikely to recruit the right people. This may lead to poor performance, low quality projects and possible risks in areas such as child protection.
This section looks at the process of recruiting staff, from identifying a new role, to finding and recruiting the right person. In addition to permanent staff, it is wise to use this process as much as possible for the recruitment of casual staff and volunteers.
