LLOCATION BOARD

in Department 1, an allocation board is kept which shows vacancies. This board is a piece of cardboard which shows all divisions and departments of the org board aligned such as the org board. It is kept by personnel procurement and when a request for a staff member comes in, the personnel procurement officer writes on a small strip of paper the post that is vacant and who requested the personnel on the reverse side of the paper. A pin is then stuck through the end of the paper and it is stuck in the department where the vacancy is. At the top of each division and department is the maximum quota of personnel authorized for that department or division by the Ad Council and the current number of persons in the department concerned and the division.
