Answer to Question 1

Career-directed employees tend to have personal goals for advancement and may want
to stay with a company for many years or leave to start their own business after a few
years. They may have technical training or other education that is useful to the business
and can be taught new skills or given increasing responsibilities and be expected to learn
quickly. They require frequent and varied rewards, including periodic salary or wage
increases. They usually have opinions and suggestions for improvements that should be
listened to and respected.
Part-time employees usually do not have career goals that involve advancement in the
business. The job may be a way to supplement family income or earn money for a short term objective. They may have education or practical experience to bring to the business
and may possess the maturity and skills needed to staff the business over weekends or
during vacation periods. They often feel as much loyalty to the company as career
employees but do not seek or expect major leadership responsibilities.
Temporary seasonal employees are hired full-time when there is more business than the
permanent staff can handle. They are hired for their ability to perform a few skills
competently and quickly. Money and work experience are their major motivations.
Loyalty to the company and an interest in its growth and success are not common in
seasonal employees. They may require closer supervision than other employees.



Answer to Question 2

Personnel management is the direction of workers in a manner that brings out their best
efforts and attitudes on behalf of the business.
