5. Right Answer: C
Explanation: Answer option C is correct.Strategic staffing and recruitment involves taking a picture of the company at a 30,000-foot level, rather than from an operational perspective. Identifying recruitment sources such as employee referrals may prove to be valuable once the strategies have been defined. Conducting a labor market analysis allows HR to identify the availability of a qualified workforce for use in the achievement of strategic objectives. Total rewards packages include conducting wage surveys and utilization reviews to understand compensation and benefits trends, designed to compete with internal and external market conditions. Defining the employer brand not only creates an employer identity, but helps to differentiate a company from their competition.Chapter: Workforce Planning and EmploymentObjective: Review Questions
