Linkage between performance management and staffing.

Staffing is one of the most important functions of management. It is the process of fitting the right candidate at the right job, at the right time. Staffing is the process of providing jobs to deserving people, through the function of recruitment, selection and training with a view to getting benefits from them, for the achievement of pre-set goals of organization.

Performance management is an ongoing process of communication between a supervisor and an employee in support of accomplishing the strategic objectives of an organization. The communication process includes clarifying expectations, setting objectives, identifying goals, providing feedback, and reviewing results.

Job analysis is the process of gathering and analyzing information about the content and the human requirements of jobs, as well as, the context in which jobs are performed. This process is used to determine placement of jobs. Job Analysis can be used in performance review to identify or develop goals and objectives, performance standards, evaluation criteria, length of probationary periods and duties to be evaluated

Performance management is the process of identifying, measuring, managing, and developing the performance of the human resources in an organization. Thus, it can be regarded as a systematic process by which the overall performance of an organization can be improved by improving the performance of individuals within a team framework. It is a means for promoting superior performance by communicating expectations, defining roles within a required competence framework and establishing achievable benchmarks.
