Hi Soumya,
Sorry for replying you late due to my busy routines in the last few days!
Well referring to your first question, it is really important for a company to access its human capital as it helps for :
1. Staff training costing for each department/skill set wise-talent pool
2. Provides an insight for the future budgeting for the employees as per their skill set level (intellectual knowledge) and also department wise.
3 To calculate and judge the effectiveness of the candidates hired as while hiring a candidate only efficiency is understood so also a best way to measure effectiveness.
4. To also determine the talent pools that are critical to a company's success.
5. to prepare the succession plan for the crucial talent pool.
But before we go beyond to measure the human[/list]

But before we go beyond to measure the human capital we will have to
-- forcast the supply and demands of skills (always in flux) as per client's
requirement
a)Forecasting of clients' demand to identify the skills that are commoditizing ahead of the market i.e. what skills clients will be needing after 3-5 years
b) To assemble workforce capabilities to meet clients' need.
c) The catagorization of skills and employees capabilities and identification of job roles that are linked with multiple skills.
If we invest on human capital and devise flexible retention plans that are flexible/ more career oriented will also help in reducing turnover rate.
