Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The two supply sources in human resources planning are typically internal and external. Internal sources include employees who can be promoted or transferred to fill open positions, while external sources include applicants from outside the organization. Option A is incorrect as contracting-out and outsourcing refer more to external service providers than potential employees. Option B is partially correct, but only includes promotion as an internal source and not transfer. Option D is incorrect as it only includes internal sources and not external sources. Option E is also incorrect as it does not refer to potential employees but rather methods of managing workload.
