Work councils, board representatives, and treating employees as partners can help achieve competitive success. Realistic job previews provide positive and negative job information. Application forms, performance tests, and interviews are useful selection tools. Training prevents errors while job rotation exposes employees to varied tasks. Performance standards, goals, and feedback from multiple sources help evaluate employees.
