A Comparison of the different HRM areas and their contribution to
organisational performance.
Recruitment and staffing is related with finding the right employee for the
organisation which may be a challenging task for Jaguar. It basically means finding
a right employee for the job as when it is compared with Training and development
area is responsible for maintaining high performance level of the employees, and it
also an important key for the employees (Paranthaman and et.al., 2017). To get
aware with the culture of the organisation, the job duties of an employee, training is
considered to be beneficial for the employees.
Employee compensation mainly refers to the benefits which employee are
receiving for the services which they are giving to their employees. It is considered
as one of largest cost for Jaguar. While as compared compared with Employee
training and development it basically deals for boosting the performance of the
employees of the Jaguar and these are the continue efforts which are done by the
company.
Workplace safety mainly related with type of healthy environment which the Jaguar
provide to its employees where they feel comfortable to do their work. HR is
focusing on that areas which provides safety training to its employees so that in case
if any injury happens during work, they are able to deal with that.
…Recruitment and staffing area contributes to to the organisational performance if
the Jaguar recruit and select those candidates who are more effective ,than the
ability to retain and hire satisfied candidates will be more likely for the organisation.
An important part is played by Employee's compensation area that it helps in
maintaining the work life balance of the employees and also helps to improve the
productivity of the employees which helps them to achieving their goals and
objectives (Liu and et.al., 2017). It is also helps the organisation because in
improving the employee's well-being it is projecting the efforts of the organisation.
Workforce safety in the organisation is helpful in preventing accidents which takes
place in the organisation.

An examination of strategic HRM in relation to the changing effects on
organisations and its business environment
Strategic HRM is essential component of business. It, therefore entails
evaluating goals of the business the vision of the organisation as well as the future
plans. Strategic HRM process is employed to ensure that business runs effectively
and efficiently. The knowledge ,capability and experience of an organisation's
workforce is a determining factor of success. This may be the reason for the
organisation that it pay particular attention to the recruitment of staff and also to
engage in the training of staff and volunteers, to build the organisations capability.
Strategic HRM greatly contributes to goal accomplishment, thereby making the
organisation sustain for a longer time.
Strategic HRM vertically tries to link human resource practices with the
Jaguar Land Rover strategies and strategic management process. It supports the
Jaguar in implementing its business strategies successfully (VATS, SHARMA and
KUMAR, 2021). It helps the Jaguar in creating and maintaining an edge over
competitive advantage. With the development of strategic orientation in HR
departments, Jaguar has understood that their human capital can provide
sustainable competitive advantage.
With the emergence of Strategic HRM in Jaguar, many departments has tried
to match their practices and strategies and processes with the business strategy. For
Jaguar company, its practices can be thought as a tool to achieve competitive
advantage. All the recruitment and selection programs of Jaguar Land Rover which
are adopting the practices of it focuses on attracting and hiring the most skilled or
talented employees (Guo and et.al., 2021). Strategic HRM Of the Jaguar greatly
contributes to the goal accomplishment, thereby making the Jaguar sustain for a
longer time. It also supports the Jaguar to implement its business strategies
successfully.
A critical evaluation of the role of recruiting and retaining appropriate
employees from the available labour markets
The role of recruiting and retaining appropriate employees can be analysed as
follows:
It reduces hassle of turnover: For Jaguar,turnover of employee is a natural
aspect,but for the HR team of the Jaguar, it will create a hassle,if it turns to be high.
It will be a expense for the organisation if the retention of employee is low. An
employee who is staying with the company for a longer period,will also build good
relations with their colleagues and will also help the organisation in growing its
business.
Reduces Acquisition and training time: If employee turnover is there in the
Jaguar, than it will be a very difficult task for the organisation to recruit new
employees who best fits for the organisation. The next steps like selection, training is
a time consuming task for the organisation. Therefore adding all the hours for these
tasks, turnover of employees is like a challenging task for the human resource
department.
Conducts motivational activities at the workplace: It is very necessary that
Jaguar should conduct activities which provides motivation to the workforce should

take place so that it also helps the employees of the Jaguar to increase their comfort
level..
Increases Overall Productivity: It takes around 1 -2 years for a employee who is
new to the Jaguar for reaching at that point of productivity level with that employee
which has been replaced. But if the employee stays with the Jaguar for a longer
time, than it will help a lot to organisation from saving its productivity which has been
lost and it will also helps an employee and HR team too.
An analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of HRM in terms of its
contribution to business success.
………………..
Employee satisfaction : HR is mainly responsible for determining that whether
employees are satisfied not only with their seniors but also with other duties related
with their job as well (Abbas, Shah and Othman, 2021). HR department than finds
out the reasons for the dissatisfaction of their current and previous employee and
finds best possible methods to resolve the issues of employees so that the morale of
the employees boosts up and they remain motivated.
Training and development : In order to determine whether employees are
performing their duties efficiently or not,the HR specialists conducts assessments for
the employees of the Jaguar. Although it is very necessary that to meet the demands
of the position, the employees must have the necessary qualifications and skills
which are required. This strategy reduces the retention of the employees and it also
reduces the turnover.
Conflict Resolution: Whether the employees are satisfied with their jobs,their
seniors,co-workers or not,the conflict regarding this thing is always there at the
workplace. A trained specialist at Jaguar will handle the relation and helps to resolve
the conflict,by restoring relationships positively in the Jaguar.
Performance Improvement: The another responsibility of HR is the development of
performance in the management systems. It is not possible without Human
Resource specialist that for measuring the performance they need to construct a
plan,which measures the performance of employees.
Budget control: For cutting the cost associated with the workforce management,
the HR department has developed the methods which helps to save the money of
the company in the long run.
HRM can contribute to the success of the business by increasing the productivity of
the employee and retention is also a another way which can be contributed by HRM
which helps to achieve the goals of the Jaguar and it also ensures the healthy
relations between the employees of the Jaguar.
An investigation into the internal and external factors that influence HRM
decisions in the workplace
Internal Factors that influence HRM decisions are as follows :

Mission: Mission basically describes that what is the purpose of the company.
People sometimes also perform their task by only keeping the mission of the
company in mind. Mission also affects the HR functions of the organisation.
Policies: Policies are the guidelines on which the organisation works. It guides the
people about what to do and what not to do (Farndale, Nikandrou, and
Panayotopoulou, 2018). Objectives guides about where we have to reach but the
route for where we have to reach is shown by the policies.
Organisation Culture: Organisational culture comprised of shared culture , beliefs
and habits which exist within the organisation. The personality of the organisation is
depicted by Organisational culture. It is one of the important factors which affect the
process of the organisation including HRM decisions.
External Factors that influence HRM decisions are as follows:
Economic Factors: The factors which shape and design the development of
economic activities. The economic factors which affect human resource
management decisions of Jaguar are population and workforce, market conditions of
the workforce,national income and inflation pressures.
Economic conditions: Conditions of the economy also affects the HRM decisions
of the Jaguar. Jaguar should take the decisions accordingly by keeping in mind the
economic conditions of the country..
Technological Factors :Due to the increasing advancement of technology in the
economy,HR department of the Jaguar is looking for the ways which helps them in
saving money (Vashchenko, 2017). A job that is used to be performed by 2 to 4
persons now has cut down to a single person right now. Technology is changing
accordingly in what way we are doing the business,not from the consumer viewpoint,
but from the viewpoint of saving the cost.
Political Factors:The political factor covers the political institution which has an
impact on HR department of Jaguar. Activities which are performed by HRM of
Jaguar are affected by these factors. Some of the functions like HR planning,
recruitment and selection,training and terminations are are governed by the
constitutional laws.
Discussion and evaluation of these factors and how they support
organisational development
Internal factors which support organisational development are as
follows:
Mission: mission or Vision of the organisation plays an important role in the
development of the company. Vision of the business provides a direction or create a
goal that has to accomplish by the company. Vision of the Organization support the
development as it provides a set of target to achieve in a limited period of time. In
order t achieve the target, company develops. Vision of Jaguar and its performance
to achieve the organisational goal lead to the development of the company.
Policies: Guidelines are prepared to create effectiveness in the operational activities
of the organisation. Policies control the business activities and create effective
utilization of the resource (Alsheibani, Cheung and Messom, 2018) . Guidelines are

prepared for the employees and the use of machinery in he most effective ways that
led to the better resource utilization and reduction in the cost of production. Reduced
cost in the production of Jaguar lead to the increase in the profit margin. Therefore,
policies of the organization contribute towards the organisational development of
Jaguar.
Organisational Culture: Culture of the organization plays an important role in the
development of the company. Diversified culture of Jaguar lead to the increase in
creativity and innovation in the operational activities of the company. Development of
innovative ideas in the company provides new innovation in the products that lead to
the increase in the sale of the organisational and supports the organisational
development.
External Factors which supports organisational development are as follows:
Economic changes: Changes in the economy might have effect on business. A
weak economy may have other effects on Jaguar while a strong economy might
some have other effects on it )(Asatiani and et.al., 2021. Economical changes such
as change in tax rates, interest rates and labour cost, demand and supply affect the
business in various ways. The increase in demand will lead to the development of
the organisation as it will increase the sale of products.
Impact of New Technologies: Technological advancement is one of the major
change which leads to change of corporate culture of Jaguar. Once there was only
way to interact with top management was moving into their office (Mahardika and
et.al., 2019). But tools now have increased the interactivity among employees today.
Communications now have become more informal than what actually they are before
and management has also become more attainable than what it was before in
Jaguar.
