1 Explain the factors that affect an organisation’s talent planning, recruitment and selection
policy
1.1 Explain the organisational
benefits of a diverse workforce
PASS
You have identified 4 relevant benefits of a diverse workforce
Yousef, but as you have relied on some external references, it

experience here too.

an organisation’s approach to
talent planning
PASS
You have identified both internal and external factors that can
affect the organisation’s approach to its planning. In terms of

the organisation as well.
1.3 Describe the factors that affect
an organisation’s recruitment
and selection policy
PASS
You have identified both internal and external factors and used
external references to explain these. It would have been better
to use examples from your own organisation to explain these
Yousef.

methods and identify when it is
appropriate to use them

Although you have briefly mentioned 3 types of recruitment

explained when it is useful to use each of them.

methods and identify when it is
appropriate to use them

Unfortunately you have also only briefly mentioned 3 selection
methods and again you should describe these in detail and

importance and benefits of

those involved in an induction
process
REFER
What is required here Yousef, is a plan in a table, identifying

at your own company’s induction plan and use that as a basis
