Hello Jazi, Greetings! Manpower planning is the first step where an organization analyzes its manpower needs, taking into consideration turnover rates, corporate policies for promotion, succession planning, and retrenchment/superannuation. Once the next year's manpower requirement plan is finalized, a recruitment plan is drawn up. A recruitment plan involves job descriptions, qualification details/skill levels, recruitment sources, recruitment dates, and coordinating dates with institutions, etc. Hope this clarifies the question.

Hi Jazi, see below the difference between Manpower Planning and Recruitment Planning.
MANPOWER PLANNING
Manpower Planning, also known as Human Resource Planning, involves ensuring the right number of people with the right skills are in the right place at the right time to carry out tasks suited to them, leading to the achievement of organizational goals. Human Resource Planning holds a significant position in the industrialization sector, following a systematic approach in its execution. The procedure includes:
- Analyzing the current manpower inventory
- Making future manpower forecasts
- Developing employment programs
- Designing training programs
RECRUITMENT PLAN
Example of a recruitment plan:
1. Quantity of recruitment
- Identify the number of employees/staff to be recruited per department
- Create a table with columns: No, department, position, number of employees, date of new employee, remarks
2. Design of recruitment materials
- Are testing tools available for the positions mentioned above?
- If not, the company should plan to procure these materials
- Do job descriptions for the positions exist?
3. Sources of recruitment
- Develop a table with columns: No, position, channel, budget, who follows?, remarks
- Recruitment sources can be internal or external
- Explore various recruitment channels and match them to suitable positions
4. Selection plan
- Who receives CVs and when?
- Who reviews CVs and when?
- Who organizes the evaluation of candidates' professional and skills? When does this occur?
- Who conducts interviews and when?
- Who makes the final decision and when?
Create a table with columns: No, working contents, who follows, who supports, date, remark.
5. Recruitment budget
Identify the budget allocated for this recruitment.
6. Notes (if any)

Understanding the Relationship Between Manpower Plan and Recruitment Plan
The recruitment plan envisages the time taken for recruitment and/or training. For example, as per the manpower plan, if you require one staff member in June 2011, then the recruitment plan may start from February or March. This timing depends on the position to be recruited, the notice period for the previous employee, etc.
