WORKDAY-PRO-HCM-CORE practice question 14 of 15
Which staffing models are available for supervisory organizations? (Select two correct answers.)
Full set: 192 questionsDomain Staffing Models
Workday's Human Capital Management (HCM) Core framework provides two fundamental staffing models that can be assigned to a supervisory organization. Position Management is a model where specific positions (or "seats") are created, budgeted for, and defined within an organization. Employees are then hired into these distinct positions, which exist whether they are filled or vacant. In contrast, Job Management is a more fluid model where employees are hired into a specific job profile within an organization. This model does not use individual positions; instead, it manages staffing based on job profiles and hiring restrictions, offering greater flexibility. The choice of staffing model is a foundational decision made when creating a supervisory organization.
A. Headcount Management: This is a method of controlling staffing levels, typically used within the Position Management model by limiting the number of positions, not a distinct staffing model itself.
B. Customer Defined Staffing Model: Workday provides standardized, configurable staffing models (Position and Job Management). It does not allow for the creation of entirely new, customer-defined models from scratch.

3. Cornell University, ILR School. (2022). HRIS and HR Analytics Courseware: Module 3 - Core HR Structures. In this module, the course materials explain Workday's organizational framework, noting: "A critical attribute of a Supervisory Organization is its Staffing Model. The two options, Position Management and Job Management, dictate how roles are structured and filled, with significant implications for budgeting, recruitment, and compensation."
