Abstract

A mathematical model for optimising the strategic staff planning in universities is used to analyse the impact of different personnel and academic policies on the strategic staff plan, considering a preferable staff composition. The personnel policies are evaluated allowing or not the dismissals of permanent workers; the ratio of internal promotion for workers and the personnel budget. The academic policies are tested through the impact of different demand trends. Addressing the specificities of the university, the optimisation model considers not only economic criteria, i.e., personnel costs, but also other factors related to the fulfilment of the required service level and the achievement of a preferable workforce composition. Several computational scenarios are used, based on real data from the Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya (Barcelona, Spain). The results show the adjustment to the preferable workforce composition through the available mechanisms (dismissals, hiring and internal promotions).

基于MILP模型的高校员工战略规划影响评价

一个数学模型用于优化战略员工计划在大学分析不同的人事和学术政策对战略员工计划的影响，考虑到一个较好的员工组成。评估人事政策是否允许解雇正式员工;员工内部晋升的比例和人事预算。通过不同需求趋势的影响对学术政策进行检验。针对大学的具体情况，优化模型不仅考虑了经济标准，即人员成本，还考虑了与实现所需服务水平和实现更理想的劳动力组成相关的其他因素。基于加泰罗尼亚理工大学(巴塞罗那，西班牙)的真实数据，使用了几个计算场景。结果表明，通过现有机制(解雇、雇用和内部晋升)调整到较理想的劳动力构成。[收到2015年6月12日;2015年11月24日修订;2016年7月24日修订;接受2016年12月7日]

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
