Human Resource Planning is now seen by many as an important aspect of Human Resource Management. It holds out the promise of integrating the various HRM functions and of involving HRM practitioners more closely in the development and implementation of corporate level strategy and plans. This paper traces the development of the concept of Human Resource Planning and examines its use in North America, Britain and the Asia Pacific area. Based upon this review, situations in which complete, fully‐integrated Human Resource Planning is likely to be feasible and practical are outlined For situations where this sophisticated approach is either inappropriate or is not supported within the organisation, simpler HRP strategies are proposed
