MANPOWER PLANNING - INTRODUCTION & PURPOSE
02
Introduction
Manpower planning is the process of assessing current workforce capabilities, demographics and work processes; determining future workforce requirements; identifying gaps and implementing solutions to bridge the gaps.
For start-ups, the typical steps in a manpower planning process may not apply. Such companies are advised to try alternative manpower planning techniques.
Please refer to A1.2 Alternative methods of manpower planning.
Purpose
This policy establishes the guidelines to plan for the appropriate type and number of employees, avoiding the cost of overstaffing or understaffing.

MANPOWER PLANNING - BENEFITS
03
BENEFITS
The outcomes of this process will enable companies to better recruit and select the right people. At the same time, companies will be able to establish effective learning and development plans for its staff. Last but not least, a well thought through manpower plan will enable companies to better strategise its career management plans to develop and groom employees to fulfil their manpower needs.
Manpower planning is key to the implementation of a companys business strategy. It enables the company to recruit and retain the right mix of people it requires to support its business needs. At the same time, it will serve to pre-empt problems of manpower surplus and shortage. Manpower costs may be lower because management can anticipate imbalances before they become unmanageable and expensive. A structured manpower planning process allows a company to understand the effort needed for the different activities in each unit, section or department. It ensures that a company has the right mix of skills and the optimal number of people to do the work, leading to more efficient utilisation of workforce. Management can better explore alternative staffing options other than permanent staff, for example, employment of part-timers and re-employment of older employees. Manpower planning also provides management with a good perspective of how anticipated changes in the business will impact manpower requirements and allows time to locate the right talent to fill existing and forecasted gaps.

[A] FORECASTING FUTURE BUSINESS REQUIREMENTS
This exercise is conducted on an annual basis during the annual business planning and budgeting exercise. Management will determine the business objectives and growth forecast for the year and subsequent years, where applicable. Examples of these objectives include: Increase annual turnover from $X to $Y Increase demand for product A by 20% by forming partnerships with overseas
Process Owner:
Leading Management Supporting Heads of Department (HODs)
distributors Scale down retail operations to focus on core competencies such as marketing and distribution management
The following considerations should be noted during this process as this will impact future needs: Sales and production forecasts Seasonal variations Manpower budget Timeline for acquiring or developing human resources Number of employees Mix of casual, permanent and contract positions
08
Changes in the division/department structure (i.e. newly created functions/sections/units and streamlined functions resulting in consolidated, eliminated or expanded sections or units)
Short-, mid- and long-term requirements Existing and required talent pools Existing and required competencies Succession planning Job levels
Employee productivity rates and use of technology or equipment that enhances productivity/efficiency resulting in reduced manpower requirements Changes in employment practices (i.e. use of subcontractors or agency staff, substitution and simplifying tasks/work processes) Changes in government policies (i.e. MOM quota on foreign workers and investment incentives) Based on the objectives set by management, the HODs, in conjunction with the immediate supervisors will set targets for their respective division, department and/or function. This forms the basis for determining manpower requirements for the year.
PLE
EXAM
An example of a target for an F&B company would be to achieve a 10% increase in monthly sales for a particular restaurant outlet.
09
[B] DETERMINING MANPOWER REQUIREMENTS FOR THE YEAR
The HR department is responsible for overseeing and facilitating the annual manpower planning process by providing the HODs with guidelines and templates including payroll budget, salary ranges, manpower requirements template.
Please refer to T1.1 Manpower Requirements, for a sample of a manpower requirements template.
Process Owner:
Leading Heads of Department (HODs) Supporting Human Resource Department (HR)
The HODs are responsible for determining manpower requirements for the year ahead to achieve the target established. The HODs should work with supervisors during this process. The typical steps in the manpower planning process are:

10
The plan should remain flexible and take into account both micro and macroeconomic considerations. You may need to consider: Factoring in sales and production forecasts, manpower budget and timeline for training and developing employees. Recruiting different types of workers, other than full-time and permanent staff, to meet the varying demand pattern over time. For a restaurant, this may include hiring part-time waiters to supplement full-time crew during a busy weekend period. Employing workers across more than one function. To increase productivity, a waiter may also be assigned to help out with kitchen preparation during off-peak hours. Factor in expected changes in productivity when estimating future activity time.
EXAM PLE
For example, investment in automation will help decrease certain activity time.
Responding to labour supply conditions.

EXAM PLE
For example, when the unemployment rate is low, competition in the labour market will intensify and companies may experience higher employee turnover.
Responding to changes in government policies such as foreign manpower policies and investment incentives.
Please refer to A1.1 Guidelines on Manpower Planning for step-bystep instructions on determining manpower requirements and T1.1 Manpower Requirements for a template.
11
The HODs are responsible for determining the cost implications of the forecasted manpower requirement of his department.
[C] DETERMINING MANPOWER COSTING
The departments projected manpower cost for the year is determined by the calculation of current, along with projected manpower costs. These include existing employment costs, estimated salary increments, and statutory payments for the following year along with projected increases of headcount by job level.
Process Owner:
Leading Heads of Department (HODs) Supporting Human Resource Department (HR)
The aggregate sum of the total projected manpower cost is derived from the following components:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Head count is the total number of permanent and contract staff that the department is expected to hire based on manpower requirements. Total salary cost refers to gross salary inclusive of overtime payment, allowances, annual bonus and incentive payments. Total benefits cost refers to employee benefits such as medical insurance, annual leave, holiday subsidy, etc. Total statutory payments include CPF, Skills Development Levy and Foreign Worker Levy. Total current employment cost is the sum of total salary cost, total benefit cost and total statutory payments paid by the company for the current year. Average cost per employee is the calculation of total employment cost divided by all employees within each job category. Projected cost increment refers to the percentage increment for all current staff for the following year.
12
8 9 10
Projected average employment cost per employee for the following year is the sum of the total current employment cost for all employees divided by current head count. Projected total head count refers to the increase (or decrease) in head count based on business needs. Projected total employment cost is the multiplication of projected headcount for the following year with the projected average expected employment cost per employee.
Please refer to T1.2 Manpower Cost Analysis for an example of manpower costing computation.
The HOD is responsible for justifying forecasted manpower requirements and projected manpower cost when presenting to Management for approval. Net benefit of the proposed manpower plan should be evident from the increased productivity of employees and the consequent improved performance of the department. You may consider some of the following measures to determine the net benefit: Employment cost per unit of output Sales per employee Amount of product handled per man hour Management will review the manpower plan and evaluate the net benefit it is expected to bring to the company. If the manpower plan is deemed to be inefficient, Management may implement supplementary measures such as process redesign, train ing and automation to improve productivity. The estimated future man-hours required may decrease as a result of increased productivity.

After the manpower plan has been approved by Management, the HOD will work with HR to fulfil the manpower requirements. Here are some methods of doing so:
[D] DEVELOPING THE ACTION PLAN
Recruitment and Selection Identifying ways and channels to recruit new hires.

Process Owner:
Leading Management Supporting Human Resource Department (HR) Heads of Department (HODs)
Career Management Look within the organisation to find suitable candidates and deploy them to work in new areas.
Refer to Career Management Module for more details.
Job Redesign This refers to enhancing the scope of an employees job to provide an opportunity for the individual to offer more value add in his scope of work. This could include the provision of end-to-end services.
EXAM PLE
In the Hotel industry, it is increasingly common for the guest relations officer to double up as a concierge or to assist in the Food and Beverage department.
14
Learning and Development Prepare existing employees for new responsibilities by offering on the job or other internal/external trainings. Collaboration with similar organisations may also be considered to reduce the cost incurred for specialised training.
Refer to Learning and Development Module for more details.
Restructuring This is a long-term strategy that involves the reorganising of work units to leverage on synergies. There may be a need to reduce workforce over time by redeployment or attrition. Outsource Non-strategic and non-core competencies can be outsourced to external organisations (e.g. cleaning, security services, IT, payroll, warehousing). Other options Company can choose to tap on contract staff and/or interns from tertiary institutions to meet temporary or short-term needs for increased manpower. A permanent role for an employee on a part-time basis (<35 work hours per week) may also be considered. Where appropriate, overtime can also be used as a means to manage temporary increases in manpower requirements.

A 1.1 GUIDELINES on manpower PLANNING

Step 1: Define current activities for each department Step 2: Determine the current annual man-hours required for Executives and Non-Executives Step 3: Define future activities for each department Step 4: Estimate the future man-hours required Step 5: Forecast losses of existing staff during the year Step 6: Determine number of people to recruit and promote during the year
17
STEP 1:
DEFINE CURRENT ACTIVITIES FOR EACH DEPARTMENT

Develop a complete list of current activities for the department. These activities may be categorized into transaction-type activities (i.e. very repetitive, standard procedures and duration) and non-transaction-type activities (i.e. less repetitive and non-standard).
Manpower requirements sample

Figure 1-3: Manpower requirements sample (Step 1)
18
STEP 2:
DETERMINE THE CURRENT ANNUAL MAN-HOURS REQUIRED FOR EXECUTIVES AND NON-EXECUTIVES
For transaction-type activities, record the following: The estimated transaction volume/frequency in the current year The activity time (in hours) of Executives and Non-Executives required for each transaction Multiply the transaction volume and activity time to get the total number of man-hours required in a year. For non-transaction type activities, man-hours required in a year may be calculated in the same way, if activity time is quite standard and the transaction volume may be estimated accurately. In some cases (e.g. one-off projects), allocate a reasonably estimated man-hour number for the activity.
19
STEP 3:
DEFINE FUTURE ACTIVITIES FOR EACH DEPARTMENT

In the same way, develop a complete list of activities for each department. Newly planned activities are included in the list.
20
STEP 4:
ESTIMATE THE FUTURE MAN-HOURS REQUIRED

Like current man-hours, the future man-hours required for both Executives and Non-Executives are determined by multiplying the transaction volume and activity time for transaction-type activities and by allocation of a reasonably estimated man-hour number for non-transaction type activities. Any changes in productivity level should be reflected in the estimation (e.g. change to activity time or transaction volume).
21
FORECAST LOSSES OF EXISTING STAFF DURING THE YEAR

Existing Executives and Non-Executives may be lost due to resignation, retirement or transfers to other departments. The resignation rate, retirement rate and transfer rate during the year is estimated. Multiply them with the current headcount to get an estimated loss of staff during the year.
STEP 5:

22
STEP 6:
DETERMINE NUMBER OF PEOPLE TO RECRUIT AND PROMOTE DURING THE YEAR

Establish the effective hours in a man-day (excluding meal hours and breaks). Establish the number of working days in the year by deducting the number of days of public holidays, rest days and non-working days, annual leave, estimated sick leave, other applicable types of leave and training days. Multiply the result with the effective hours per day to get the effective working hours in a year. Divide the future man-hours required by the effective hours in a year to get a future headcount needed. Deduct the current headcount against future required headcount. Add the forecasted losses during the year. The resulting number is the final gap (i.e. the headcount that has to be recruited or promoted/transferred in during the year).

MANPOWER PLANNING - ALTERNATIVE METHODS OF MANPOWER PLANNING
23
A1.2 Alternative Methods of Manpower PLANNING

The usual manpower planning process may not apply to start-ups or companies with limited number of employees. Such companies may refer to benchmarks used within their industry to estimate their manpower requirements.
24
THE FOLLOWING METHODS MAY BE APPLIED IN PART OR IN WHOLE WHEN DECIDING ON THE MANPOWER REQUIREMENTS FOR AN ORGANISATION:
TREND ANALYSIS
This approach involves studying the variation of employees over the last few years in each department (e.g. Sales, Projects, Finance, IT, Marketing). The company may wish to look at the number of employees in each department over the past 3-5 years, or the number of employees in each subgroup at the end of each year over a 3-5 year period. This is done to identify trends that may continue into the future.
NOTE
Elements such as sales volume changes and productivity enhancements may also affect staffing figures.
several e r a e r e Th of metho d s power n a m g n i deter min ailable. v a s t n e requirem
25
RATIO ANALYSIS
This approach is done by making forecasts based on the ratio between a causal factor (e.g. sales volume) and manpower required for the work to be done (e.g. number of sales staff). Example:
If it takes 20,000 man hours to complete a specific project, completing this project within 6 months (or 180 days), will require a minimum of 14 staff to be on this project for an average of 8 hours per day. In this scenario, historical values are used as a sample to plot estimated manpower requirements.
REQUIRED TO COMPLETE 20,000 MAN HOURS IN 180 DAYS NO. OF HOURS PER DAY = 8 HRS MIN. NUMBER OF STAFF = 20,000 14 (188)
Factors such as sick leave, rest days, non-working days, public holidays and training days have to be taken into consideration. This approach does not take into consideration enhancements in productivity and extra hours put in by employees.
NOTE
BUSINESS UNIT FORECASTING

This approach is done by HR meeting up with supervisors and managers to come up with an estimate for the manpower requirements of the company for the upcoming year. This may involve managers using unit or trend forecasting to derive the estimates.
26
FUNCTION SPECIFIC RATIOS

Here are some widely accepted ratios for a selection of functions that may be considered when planning for manpower requirements: FUNCTION KPI GUIDELINE Fewer than 100 100 to 249 250 to 499 HR full-time equivalent employees (FTEs) to employee ratio
NOTE

If a company has a total staff of 823, the number of HR personnel would be 823 x 0.98 (100) 8
SALES
Sales per person
If the company wants to achieve a sales target of $1 million and sales revenue per person is estimated to be $0.25 million, then number of sales people required is 4.

Ratio of full time staff to part-time staff, temporary staff, interns
For companies that have seasonal variations in manpower requirement, temporary staff and interns may be used during peak periods.

INDUSTRY SPECIFIC RATIOS

INDUSTRY KPI POSSIBLE CONSIDERATIONS If the target revenue is $5 million and on an average an employee generates $1 million revenue per year, then number of employees required will be 5.
Professional Services, Sales, Real Estate, Manufacturing
Revenue per employee
Depends on whether the retail environment is a hightouch or low-touch one, to consider the following options: - Ratio of number of service staff to customer (e.g. High

Retail
Number of customers to serve
OR - Number of service staff responsible per square feet of retail space (e.g. High Touch
1 staff per 300 square feet, Low Touch 1 staff per 1000 square feet)
Depending on the quality of service provided and type of cuisine offered, an employer may choose to have a ratio of wait staff to tables in a restaurant.
For a sit-down dinner for 10 people:
Minimum 1 server per 3 tables Optimum 1 server per 2 tables Premium 2 to 3 servers per 3 tables

Atlas Sound & Vision Pte Ltd

Background of company
Atlas Sound & Vision is a reseller and distributor of premium audio and visual products within Singapore, and has a staff strength of 95 in Singapore, 30 in Malaysia and 5 in Australia. Incorporated in 1962, they have seen rapid growth in both their revenue turnover and headcount over the past decade with a combination of strong leadership and the foresight to capitalise on business opportunities. After attending the manpower planning training workshop, Atlas used the for manpower requirement template manpower planning on its retail and project teams to ascertain the effectiveness of the Toolkit. Through experience, Atlas has found the manpower planning template more applicable for jobs that are more transactional and predictable in nature.
Benefits of using the HR Toolkit

The use of this template has helped the management of Atlas better understand the job activities of each individual. This knowledge has helped Atlas to improve the recruitment and selection, and performance management for new employees. With a better understanding of how to use the template, Atlas will now use it to evaluate the work done by its Finance team and to see how technology can be used to reduce the workload of some of its executives.
Self-implementing the manpower planning framework

Prior to the implementation of the HR Capability Toolkit, Atlas, like most companies in its initial phase of development, did not have a clearly defined approach to manpower planning. Its organisation structure was unstructured, and existed to serve the business needs of the company. Manpower planning was based on industry and competitor norms and supplemented with each business units manpower requirements.

Fast Facts:
Year of Incorporation: 1986 Staff Strength: 20 (At HQ Level) Industry Focus: IT Engineering Sales Turnover: S$5-S$20 Million

TME Systems Pte Ltd

Background of company
TME Systems Pte Ltd Singapore was established in 1986 and specialises in automation testing and measurement solutions for high tech products. Its core capabilities are in the distribution of world-class cutting edge technology products, industrial automation solutions, education trainer solutions and test and measurement solutions. During a deep-dive study of TMEs manpower needs, the company realised that they were facing challenges due to a lack of HR resources. The absence of business forecasting for each division also revealed the reason for challenges in ascertaining its manpower requirements. A manpower audit also revealed their shortage of senior positions critical to leading its day-to-day operations. TME took up the recommendations made by the consultant and customised the templates in the HR Capability Toolkit to meet their specialised business needs. This helps each division to better plan for its resources needs. The better management of workload for its employees has resulted in a lower attrition rate compared to previous years, and has given the company the confidence to come up with an improved set of recruitment and selection procedures to improve the suitability and quality of new employees to TME.
Issues faced by company

Manpower has always been a key concern for TME as its employees have to go through rigorous training to specialise in the niche areas that the company operates in. Due to the heavy investment in training, it has been a costly endeavor whenever an employee leaves the organisation as TME would have to devote resources in training a new employee. This problem is exacerbated by a lack of dedicated HR resources to address the attrition issues.
Better manpower planning through the HR Toolkit

TME worked with SNEF Consultants to better ascertain its manpower gaps and to better plan its manpower needs.
