Abstract

‘Manpower is a key resource, perhaps the country's most valuable asset, and it should be in the forefront of Government, industry and company strategy and policy, and not treated as a residual factor as so often happens at present. ‘It would be wrong to suppose that there is some magic list of extra manpower measures which would transform any existing set of programmes into a comprehensive manpower policy. The task is rather to create a new attitude to manpower.’
