Human Resources Management Function Business Process Model
According to our research and consultation process, we have identified a number of sequential sub-functions within the Human Resources Management business process model. These sub-functions, shown in black text in the diagram below, provide a foundation for BASCS classifications related to the Human Resources Management function.
Human Resources Management Sub-function Business Process Model
A number of sequential activities in each sub-function were identified for the Human Resources Management process. These activities, shown in black text in the diagram below, provide the next level of BASCS classifications related to the Human Resources Management function.
Human Resources Management Function Draft Classification Model
This model records classification structure addresses the Human Resources Management function, the steps in the business process developed to fulfill the function (i.e., sub-functions), the activities associated with each of these sub-functions, and the transactions of administrative business concerning the management of human resources within the federal government-as commonly conducted in and across all government institutions to facilitate the delivery of programmes and services.
The five sub-functions of the Human Resources Management business process, listed in order of a life-cycle concept of managing human resources, are:
- Human Resources Management - Planning
- Human Resources Management - Recruiting
- Human Resources Management - Developing
- Human Resources Management - Retaining
- Human Resources Management - Performance Measurement.
As a business process, these sub-functions are arranged in the following sequence:
HUMAN RESOURCES MANAGEMENT FUNCTION
PRIMARY NUMBERS AND SUB-FUNCTIONS
- 1.5.0 Human Resources Management - Comprehensive Matters
- 1.5.1 Human Resources Management - Planning
- 1.5.2 Human Resources Management - Recruiting
- 1.5.3 Human Resources Management - Developing
- 1.5.4 Finance Management - Performance Measurement
- 1.5.4 Finance Management - Performance Measurement
Note: the numeric coding system presented in this draft model classification structure is used for example purposes only. As of the date of this model, LAC has made no final decisions regarding the application of a standard coding system (including delimiters) to complement classification structures for common administrative records.
The Human Resources - Comprehensive Matters record grouping is reserved for records of activities and transactions that relate to or affect, in a comprehensive manner, the Human Resources Management function or the business process developed to fulfill that function (i.e., this record grouping is reserved for records of activities and transactions that relate to or affect all or most sub-functions of the Human Resources Management business process).
Examples of such activities and/or transactions are:
- developing, applying, monitoring, and/or evaluating a policy, guidelines, systems, procedures, etc. that address or encompass all or most aspects of the human resources management function and/or business process (example record types: draft and approved policies, guidelines, procedures; draft and final requirements definitions for human resources management information systems1);
- group activities and initiatives, i.e., those of committees, project teams, delegations, etc., that focus on all or most aspects of the human resource management function and/or business process (example record types: committee and/or work group meeting agenda and minutes, records of decisions, issue logs);
- liaison activities, e.g., via the Human Resources Council, the Human Resources Management Institute, that address or encompass all or most aspects of the human resources management function and/or business process (example record types: documents of inter-organizational information sessions and/or collaborative initiatives);
- reporting activities that address or encompass all or most aspects of the human resource management function and/or business process (example record types: draft and final reports addressing the overall (e.g., corporate) human resources management function and/or business process.
1 Note: for records of activities relating to information management systems and technologies, see the model records classification structure developed for the Management of Information function.
Note: records of activities and/or transactions that relate to specific sub-functions of the human resources management business process (i.e., planning, recruiting, developing, retaining, or performance measurement) should be classified to those sections of this classification scheme. Records that simultaneously address two or more, but not all, sub-functions of the business process should be classified to one of those sub-functions; the existence of these records should be noted in the descriptions of the related sub-function, activity, and/or transaction records groupings or, if appropriate, in the profiles of related individual documents (as a metadata 'cross-reference' element).
