This method of planning of labour resources is based on an extension in the future of existent tendencies, relating the indexes of production and amount of personnel (foremost betweenness by the volume of works and quantity of busy). So, as it applies to activity of Fund of social security of Russian Federation the volume of services in social security must determine the general quantity of workers. The proper norms can be extrapolated in the future, and the prognosis of volume of works can serve a starting point for determination of requirements in a personnel. Naturally, that not at all always this method is adequate. For successful application of extrapolation it is necessary to have in a presence a tendency and norms on which it is possible it will be to lean in the proper calculations. It is possible only in that case, when basic activity of organization and labour of workers productivity remain unchanging. In addition, numbers, got by extrapolation, must be adjusted taking into account planning of measures on the increase of the labour productivity, if such are present. In a number of cases adjustment must take into account a market capacity. In particular it touches the sphere of insurance services. If a market is already filled, a reception on work of additional workers can result in the decline of the productivity already workings. A thin calculation, having for an object increase of the productivity of all workers, is here needed, at the decline of the individual making each.

Balance method. This method is very near to extrapolation, but a difference consists in that planning of personnel in this case is carried out for a few constrained between itself or types of activity in organization. This method is especially effective for the calculation of amount of auxiliary personnel.

Thus, balance between the types of activity can be counted both on products and to the personnel. In large organizations, such as Fund of social security of Russian Federation, the use of such method can bring good results. The basic lack of extrapolation is here saved thus: those tendencies and correlations which spread on the future period of activity of organization must already exist; I.e. this method again well works as it applies to the unchanging terms of work and types of activity. So, an amount of employees of administrative Department must be in balance with the general quantity of employees of Fund and size of his property.

Expert questioning. Bringing in of experts is used for determination of requirements in labour resources, foremost in transition on new products. As experts - people, on opinion of which it is possible to rely - managers can come forward on a personnel, specialists of different functional types and leaders of primary collectives. Questioning last is the special case. Ask managers, whether additional workers will be required them for implementation of new tasks and, if - yes, then in what amount. Such questioning has for an object not so much abstract construction of structure of future employment, how many concrete distributing of tasks between collectives with their proper acquisition. A manager can present, what workers will manage with new tasks, what - no, not only quantitative but also high-quality descriptions of personnel will be analysed the same. In addition, a manager will be in some measure accountable to the management of organizational-skilled work in that, in respect of the undertaken obligations.

Design. This method is also used for determination of requirements in labour force in changing terms. A model can be made both on the basis of requirements of technology (scales of works, accordance between the amount of workers and by the type of the rendered favour, amount and specific of streams of information and other) and on the basis of социотехнического approach, taking into account the queries of production and social subsystems of organization (enriching of labour, development of personnel, rotary press of personnels and other). During realization of new projects the models of the linear programming, minimizing loss both from the surplus and from insufficient amount of workers, can be used in Fund of social security of Russian Federation.
