Case Study`s Unit 13: Recruitment and Selection
in Business


Case Study: Dr. Oetker
Page 322

1. Which types of vacancy might Dr. Oetker require when moving
production from Germany to the UK?

In order to move their products from their current facility to their
new facility they need to hire chauffeurs. In their new facility they
might need local employees for their sales and marketing
department, because there is a lot of difference between the German
and UK market. A few examples of vacancy`s they need to require
are; Market researchers, local sales staff (who can speak and write
English) and production staff.

2. What might happen if they don`t recruit the right staff?

There operations might stop, because if for example the chauffeurs
aren`t local or do not speak the right language the distribution of the
products can go wrong and this would mean that the customers
would take their buying somewhere else.

3. What effect would their recruitment have on the local area?

People who are currently looking for a job would become more alert
and they will also create a lot of job opportunities in the area,
because they operate worldwide this means that they are a big
company and that they need a lot of new employees.

4. Which other factors should be considered when moving
production from one country to another?

, Labor/Government Regulations, because not every country operates
with the same regulations, for example in China the minimum wage
for an employees are much lower than the minimum wage in Europe.
Another thing which a business needs to consider when moving
operations could be; the pay of tax. In some country`s the tax is
higher compared to another country and in some country`s you even
need to pay income tax, so this should also be considered when
moving operations.
