For P2, learners will need to look at an organisation and consider the purpose and use of information. Learners will need to know how the information gathered is used by managers, whether it be for monitoring, controlling, co-ordinating or planning. The information is used to make decisions. In the case of the supermarket transactions, it will be clear that immediate decisions are made as a consequence of the information generated, whether it is opening another till, reviewing the success of promotional activities, declining a method of payment or re-ordering depleted stocks.

In this assignment I’m going to explain the sources of
information needed in a selected organisation. My selected
organisation is Sainsbury’s.

Human resources: The HR department provides comprehensive
human resource management services for the company. Its
main functions include recruitment and selection processes,
they also do classification and pay systems; policy
development and management. Sainsbury’s is a top business
so it’s very important that they employ the right people. Also
it’s vital that they cooperate with customers as customer
satisfaction is key as negative feedback could lead to a
tarnished reputation. Human resources include:

Candidate Search: specializes in finding the right people to fill
jobs at companies. Sometimes large companies have their own
recruitment staff, but more often, a private individual works for
one or more companies to find a person who meets the specific
requirements of a job the company has open. Frequently, the
job recruiter is a freelance worker who will recruit for various
companies at the same time.

Interviewing: An interview is a conversation in which the
interviewer questions the interviewee in order to gain
information. Interviews can be formal or informal, structured or
unstructured. They can be conducted one-to-one or in groups,
face to face or by telephone, Skype, or email.

Payroll: The financial records for employee wages/salaries,
withholding, deductions, bonuses, pay for time not worked
(holidays, vacations, sick time, etc.) and other items on
employee pay checks. It can also mean the record of total
earnings of all employees for a company in a fiscal year.

Hey guys, all of you studying BTEC out there know how frustrating it can get with all those assignments. While studying myself I always wished there was someone to help me with my assignments and even having a template can make it twice as easy at times, so, here you go. I have every major unit. Use sensible guys.
