Workforce planning is a strategic process that helps organisations align their human resources with their business goals and objectives. It involves analysing the current and future workforce needs, identifying the skills gaps and surpluses, and developing and implementing strategies to address them. Workforce planning enables organisations to optimise the use, development, and retention of their talent, and to enhance their performance, efficiency, and competitiveness.
