"The impact of human resource planning on organisational performance "

Human Resource Planning (HRP) is a strategic approach through which organizations anticipate and prepare for future workforce needs. Effective HR planning ensures that a company has employees with appropriate skills available when required. This paper examines how systematic HRP contributes to improved organizational outcomes. Well-structured planning minimizes employee shortages, reduces operational costs, strengthens recruitment efforts, and enhances overall productivity. By forecasting talent needs, identifying capability gaps, and supporting training initiatives, HRP enables employees to perform efficiently and helps organizations remain competitive. The study concludes that HRP is fundamental for long-term stability, growth, and sustainable performance.
