1-Reorganizing: It focuses on restructuring the organization. Being a manager or president, he/she is required to see and evaluate his/her own organization especially during the economical crisis so that it is easy to know how to come up with the urgent flaw. With this, we have to pay more attention to vision, mission, goals, policies, and strategies of the organization and then evaluate the human resource planning to see whether the there is a balance between demand and supply or not. Reorganizing could be done from the large organization to small size or vice versus by focusing on rotating the staff, renovating some departments or changing the goals of the organization.
2-Downsizing: It means that we have to make some changes in the company. It starts from the top management to middle management to line management. For example, Thai Airline Co., Ltd uses these two approaches to organize the company when it becomes larger and larger. First, the company reorganizes the structure by dividing the company into two parts of main business (Core Business and Business Units), and then it starts to downsize the staff. The company uses the strategy that is called “Acting.” It means the top management will come and work for middle position if it is vacant or vice versus. For supervisory management, it is replaced with each other if it is free position. Doing this, it does not only satisfy the employees but also it makes the company be successful.
3-Non-staff movement approach: It is related to rotating of the staff in the company, and it is divided into
A. Reclassification or Reallocating: It concentrates on demoting and downgrading the employers, employees or some departments in the company or organization. Demoting refers to the tactics that are used to demote some positions of the top management or middle management to the other levels so that the company can reduces some salary. Downgrading is concerned with combing something together to make it smaller than before. In the organization or the company, it will combine some departments together if it thinks that it can be or put the staff together so that the company or the organization is able to reduce some other expenses.
B. Transferring: This is not so different from downsizing approach. The company will not need to employ more staff, lay off or terminate, but the company will negotiate with the employees and then transfer them to work in other departments where it recognizes that they do not well undergo. For example, the staff could be transferred from department of sales to department of promotion if it is thought that it can be and will give much more benefits.
C. Job sharing: This also a good method that can be used when the economy is under crisis and it will reduce some sorts of expenses and not affect the company or staff too. Job sharing refers to the employees will get more burden or responsibility. They do not only work for their jobs but they will help other employees to achieve some kinds of jobs. Some tasks are required to be shred so that the company can save some money.
4-Voluntary turnover: It is also a good method that can be used above all when company is facing some problems during economical crisis. It comprises of attrition and early retirement.
A. Attrition: It is a process of gradually weakening somebody’s strength and confidence by continuous harassment in the expression shown. When the employees see less value, or they are harassed in other manners, they will find their ways out. The organization does not force the employees to move out but the employees will be aware of themselves whether to stay or not.
B. Early retirement: It is relevant to the regulation of the organization or company in keeping or retiring the staff. Some companies or organizations set immediate retirement regulation that it can help the company or the organization retire some employees during the economical crisis. For example, some companies in The USA retired the employees early when they confronted the economical crisis. Thousands of employees are voluntary to retire early because the companies promulgate that category of law or regulation.
5-Working hour reduction: This is another way that can be employed if the company or organization is facing some crises. The company or the organization will reduce some working hours or lessen some days off. For example, the employees regularly work from Monday until Friday and 9 to 12 and then 1 to 4 or 9 pm. Because of the above problem, some are required to toil from Monday to Thursday and others from Wednesday to Friday or from 9 to 4. This could assist the company to save some more money or reduce some more expense.
6- Dropping: It refers to cutting off some departments or units in the organization or company. The managers are thoroughly required to get all the information from all the departments of the company or organization, and then they begin to decide whether to drop this or that they consider it wastes a lot of money, and it is not necessary too. For example, some production lines have a lot of competitors and they do not provide much profit, so they should be dropped off.
