SEMESTER 1
YEAR 2023
, Contents
Mr Muhammed Saleem had a meeting with you whereby he asked for your guidance on
introducing workplace flexibility to accommodate to the changing needs of the organisation and
the employees. Present a proposal in which you discuss three forms of workplace flexibility that
can be introduced within Accounting Buddies. ...................................................................................... 3
Communication is the glue that binds various elements, coordinates activities, allows people to
work together and produce results. Identify five (5) methods of communication that can be
implemented within the company, which also include communicating with staff members who
are working from home.............................................................................................................................. 4
One of the problems you have noticed is that Accounting Buddies still currently uses a paper-
based system to store and maintain employee records and other administrative documents in
the HR department. You feel that the paper-based system is outdated and time consuming, and
you decide to approach Mr Muhammad Saleem with a proposition to implement a human
resource information system (HRIS) at Accounting Buddies. Define what HRIS is to Mr
Muhammad Saleem, and then briefly outline the benefits of an HRIS. ............................................. 6
Mr Muhammad Saleem has listened to your proposition and is excited about the introduction of
an HRIS in the company; however, he has investigated HRIS’s in the past and now believes you
are only looking at the positives. He asks you to identify the potential reasons for HRIS failures
to avoid the same happening at Accounting Buddies. ......................................................................... 7
Thembi, a senior financial consultant at Accounting Buddies has announced that she will be
resigning from her current position as she will be relocating to Cape Town. She has submitted a
formal notice in writing to leave in one month. The company is surprised by this sudden
resignation and is faced with the challenge of recruiting a new HR manager. Due to time
constraints, they have decided to recruit a candidate internally. Tabulate the advantages and
disadvantages of internal recruitment. .................................................................................................... 9
Since Thembi has been working for the organisation for 6 years, you realise that she has
valuable information that she can she can share which will be useful to Accounting Buddies.
You decide to set up an exit interview with her before she leaves. Explain the purpose of an exit
interview and then identify the outcomes of such an interview. ........................................................ 10
