ABSTRACT
PRODA is a research and
development centre based in Enugu.
Personnel management
system deals with the general operation procedure and flow of information about
people working in the organization, in this case, PRODA as well their future
personnel needs. This system is concerned primarily with the basic functions
or\f recruitment training and development benefits and welfare, the achievement
of personnel policies and procedures.
Computerized system
poses high speed of processing precision, storage, its versatility and high
retrieval system makes possible the completion of tasks that could never been
achieved with manual system because of the difficulty of completing them on
time for the results to be useful.
Therefore
in the project, I will carry out among other things the feasibility study of
existing system, design and develop, a new system implementable in any given
Dbase4.
ORGANISATION OF WORK
The project work is made up of the
title page, the Approval page, Certification, Dedication, Acknowledgement, the
Abstract, the Organization work, the Table of Figures and Contents.
It is also divided into chapters,
which is seven in number.

introduction which is subdivided into statement of the problem, purpose of the
study, the aims and objectives of the study, the scope of the study,
limitation/ constraint of the study. Assumption and definition of terms of the
study chapter two is made up of literature review of the study chapter three is
made up of the description and analysis of the existing system, facts finding
and method, organizational structure, objectives of the existing system, input,
process, output analysis, information flow diagram, problem of the existing
system and justification of the new system.
Chapter four is made up of the
design of the new system, output specification and design, input specification
and design, input specification and design, file design, procedure chart,
system flowchart and system requirement.
Chapter five is made up of the
implementation of the study, program design, program flowchart, pseudocodes,
source program and test run.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
Computers have become a
glamorous new adventure especially its limitless areas of application. With the
society, so computer oriented literacy and application have become a must
computer literacy involve knowledge of basic computer concepts that is knowing
simple computer terminology, how he computer works and how it can basically be
used to solve problems. The quest for computer knowledge is increasing being
felt in the society, schools at all levels are vigorously acquiring computer
and engaging in in computer education which has become a requirement for many
institution. Many companies and organization are all interested on how fast
they could get the job done with great efficiency and accuracy. Not only that
many organization no longer employ those who have no basic computer knowledge.
In Nigerian today, basic knowledge in computer has become one of the criteria
for employment.
Following the emergency of computer
and other electronice data processing equipment paper working and other
recording keeping system have been replaced with the term data processing.
This “data processing” became popular
when men can no longer remember all his activities and the need for record
keeping came into play.
The uses of computer have caused
decisive changes in human civilization. Its development is one of the major
events not just in scientific history, but in the world history. Computers have
a bigger impact on then the atomic energy. Another major event that more or
less made some historical period, the only possibility that atomic energy will
have bigger impact in its case is that there will be bo historian to discuss
the matter. T he computer has deeper effect on us than anything else because it
penetrates the technological level. It penetrates the logical activity,
political activity and the way people think. It is very difficult to think of
any aspect of our life that are not scientifically influenced.
The trade unionists and workers have
attached sentiments and evils against this situation machine because they see
it as necessarily increasing the level of unemployment at categories of the
labour force. But researchers are sincerely of the view that is automations
creates unemployment but displacing it from some jobs, it is capable of
generating greater employment opportunities by increasing aggregate output.
This will ensure a greater demand for goods, services and likewise labour in
the economy of the country. This is the type of result that is employed by
industry, organization, forms, especially in administration. Where automation has been properly conceived
implemented and managed.
Personnel management is one crucial
tasking and risking aspects of organization is glaringly not only important but
also an essential necessity. The advantage and applications a re limitless
impotential may be a brief and snappy scan at the function of personnel
management will quickly unveil the arduous and tasking nature of the processes
and the unlimited advantages of application of the computer in the personnel
management system.
The personnel management system term
among other embraces:-
- Recruitment, selection and placement
- Wages and salaries administration
- Employee welfare, health and safety and leave
- Training and development and industrial relations and
joint consultation
The computers have not always helpful to managers and decisions maker because of our inability to properly unlock the potential of computer-based system especially in help decisions makers. Computer is reshaping all of society and the world business.
In this
project titles “Computer-based personnel management information” system is
centered on using the computer as an aid to process (manipulate) the personnel
and all its management function with its attached advantages over the mundane
or obsolete traditional filing system.
