The staff at the enterprise is a collection of employees who have the best professional training, as well as experience in solving practical problems to achieve the goals of the organization. At the same time, workers must work on an ongoing basis. In order to keep records and planning staff, several classifications were developed. They are based on basic features.
The personnel structure depending on the functions performed is as follows:
Workers who are directly involved in the provision of transport or industrial services, as well as the creation of wealth. This group also distinguishes the main employees (engaged in production) and auxiliary (serve this process).
Specialists responsible for legal, economic, engineering and other functions, and clerks who are involved in the preparation of documentation.
Managers who manage the enterprise and its structural divisions.
The personnel structure in this case is divided into linear and functional. Linear manage the production activities of departments and workshops in the enterprise. Functional ones lead the groups of the organization’s main services.
The structure of senior management personnel at the enterprise is also classified by the level they occupy. Based on this, the following types can be distinguished:
Top managers have a very high level of responsibility. They are usually engaged in financial-industrial groups, large associations and departments.
Mid-level managers are directors and general directors of enterprises, their deputies. This group also includes managers of large workshops.
Heads of the lower level usually occupy the posts of masters or senior craftsmen, foremen, shop managers, small functional services and departments.
The staff structure, depending on how the employee is involved in the production process, can be divided into:
- industrial production (employees of service, auxiliary and main industries; research laboratories and units; security and so on);
- non-industrial, which consists of employees of the social infrastructure of the organization (housing and communal services, children's and medical facilities, dispensaries, recreation centers that belong to this company, enterprise).
The personnel structure of the enterprise is also distinguished in accordance with its skill level:
Unskilled workers who are involved in the most dirty work in the enterprise.
Qualified employees usually have the necessary level of education, which is often not confirmed by sufficient experience.
Highly skilled workers perform responsible and complex work. They must have at least three years of experience, as well as extensive practical experience in such an area.
Employees need to regularly improve their skills through internships or continuing education.
But the organization’s personnel structure is not a static entity, since it is characterized by the employee’s hiring and retirement.
In addition, it is possible:
Intrafirm (intra-production) movement of personnel, which is determined by several features. We are talking about inter-workshop movement, inter-professional mobility, skills movements and the transfer of workers to another category.
External movement is determined by a number of indicators (turnover data on hiring and dismissal; a coefficient that characterizes staff turnover).
