Subject: Regarding construction of manufacturing plant in Oklahoma and work force planning for production unit.
This is to inform you that the proposed site for the new manufacturing plant could be in Oklahoma. Various researches and analysis has been undertaken in this regard and considering the economic, demographic and employment trends in Oklahoma, which underscores to proceed with construction of plant in the state.
Considering the gender statistics, Oklahoma has 52 percent of young females in the age group of 20-29. This is more than the whole US state. In the case of males, it is around 57 percent in the age group of 20-29 which is also more than whole of the US. Capra Tek could utilize the availability of more number of young males and females in Oklahoma for planning it’s work place in future.
Further, with regard to age distribution in various sectors, production sector holds a better picture which employs around 44 percent of people in the age group of 25-44 and 45 percent of people in the age group of 45-64. This shows the availability of skilled labor in Oklahoma compared to other states.
Arkansas which is also in the South Central region of the US, has a less number of employable young force, which is 48 percent in the age group of 20-29. In the case of males, it is around 55 percent in the 20-29 age group. While the availability of skilled labor force is also much lesser in Arkansas which is 36 and 40 percent respectively in the age group of 25-44.
Further it is estimated that the production lines of Capra Tek plant requires approximately 500 employees by the end of three phases, 150 employees for Phase 1, 100 employees for Phase 2 and 250 employees for Phase 3.
Every candidate will have to pass through a three round selection process. The first stage is an initial screening based on matching of skills and experience. Candidates who clear the first round will go through a second round of face-to-face interview with General Manager of Productions department. The candidates will be assessed based on knowledge, skills and experience. The selection stage also requires a medically fit certificate from a registered physician. Candidates who qualify all the three rounds will be given offer letters and the plant requires a total of 500 employees to be recruited for the production unit by the end of phase 3. All the selected candidates will have to attend a six-week training at the onsite too. The recruitment team have to screen at least 1000 candidates considering the hired-joinee ratio of previous years.
Considering the availability of skilled employees and employable young people in Oklahoma, the plant will definitely able to meet the work force requirements of the production unit.
With these aspects in the work force planning, Capra Tek could also continue to develop its elements in work force culture to become the employer of choice. Capra Tek’s policy of Equal employment opportunity will set the platform for both the male and female skilled employees to find equal opportunities of getting employed.
The Open Door policy of the company will help to establish transparent and flexible bottom-up communication paths. Capra Tek feels that its employees should be free and encouraged to speak openly to their supervisors, or other managers and directors about significant matters. This policy is essential for dealing with concerns or issues and gaining insight into potential problems.
Capra Tek also has a violence in the workplace policy which aims to provide a safe workplace free from violence, intimidation, harassment or any other form of disruptive behavior. The company also expect that all employees conduct themselves in a professional manner and in accordance with good business practices. The purpose of this policy is to provide employees with guidelines on managing actual or potentially violent situations. It aims to make all employees aware of the potential for violence in the workplace, to increase their capacity to recognize and act on early warning signs of potential violence, as well as to understand how to respond to any incidents of this nature.
I assert that these policies could be further developed by including sub-policies. These elements of work place culture of Capra Tek would definitely earn it a reputation of employer of choice not only in Oklahoma but also in the whole of US.
Let me conclude by stating that Oklahoma is the ideal location for the new manufacturing plant. Further, by developing the various policies Capra Tek could easily become an employer of choice too.
Thanking You
