Steps Used in manpower planning
Analyzing the current manpower plan
Reviewing utilization
Finding out current demand
Finding out future supply
Finally developing a manpower plan
The MDI campus is lush green and has a dedicated area for various indoor sports and leisure activities . Each leisure area requires a dedicated gardener and each such garden/lawn requires manpower planning to estimate the number of gardeners required in the area.
We analyzed the number of gardeners required to man the gardens of MDI.
After a thorough analysis we concluded that the present number of Gardeners are somewhat overstaffed. The staffing is more appropriate during monsoon and rainy season when there is an overgrowth of grass. In other seasons the number of gardeners required is lesser.
We interviewed a number of gardeners to ascertain their working habits and methodologies. The findings are documented below:

Primary job:
Trimming grasses pruning bushes
Secondary jobs:
Keeping the bushes and the plantation in order
Soil upkeep and enrichment
Cleanliness of the gardens and lawns
Pesticide spraying
New plantation and expansion of green area
Primary analysis results:
1. Gardeners are normally late and they also are not in their full capacity.
At any given time not all the gardeners employed are present.
