IS/ISO 30405 : 2023 Human Resource Management - Guidelines on Recruitment

ICS 03.100.30

MSD 19

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard (First Revision) which is identical to ISO 30405 : 2023 'Human resource management - Guidelines on recruitment' issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Human Resource and Innovation Management Sectional Committee and approval of the Management and Systems Division Council.

This standard was first published in 2019. This revision has been undertaken to align it with latest version of ISO 30405 : 2023.

The main changes are as follows:

a) Document restructured to include a practical approach to create a positive candidate experience;

b) Structure now follows the phases of the recruitment process within the hiring organization;

c) Information about the relevance of describing requirements of a position included;

d) New Annex B on artificial intelligence added;

e) Previous Annexes C and D deleted;

f) Information on data protection and privacy advice added;

g) New Annex C added, presenting options for checking work eligibility and background information of candidates;

h) Definition of the candidate experience broadened to include not only the best-fitting candidates in the final stages of the recruitment process but also all applicants, candidates and persons interacting with the organization during the recruitment process but not hired.

The text of ISO standard has been approved as suitable for publication as an Indian Standard without deviations. Certain conventions are, however, not identical to those used in Indian Standards. Attention is particularly drawn to the following:

a) Wherever the words 'International Standard' appear referring to this standard, they should be read as 'Indian Standard'; and

b) Comma (,) has been used as a decimal marker while in Indian Standards, the current practice is to use a point (.) as the decimal marker.
