Question

Explain the following **internal sources of recruitment**:

(i) Transfers

(ii) Promotions

Edvaya · Accepted Answer

The correct answer is Subjective. **(i) Transfers:** Transfer involves the **lateral shifting** of an employee from one job to another, one department to another, or from one shift or location to another, without a substantial change in the employee's responsibilities, status, or remuneration. It helps in filling vacancies from within the organisation. It may involve a change in duties and working conditions, but generally not in salary. Transfers can also be initiated to meet organisational requirements or to give employees broader experience. **(ii) Promotions:** Promotion refers to the **upward shifting** of an employee to a higher position, carrying greater responsibilities, better facilities, enhanced status, and higher pay. It is a vertical movement within the organisational hierarchy. Promotions serve as a powerful source of motivation for employees, improving their morale, loyalty, and commitment to the organisation. They also reduce the need to recruit from outside for senior positions.
