Seniority Promotion Systems — A Review

Abstract

In reviewing the personnel management literature, this article argues that promotion has been a very neglected area, especially in Britain. Personnel management writers have tended to assume that most appointments are made by recruitment from the external labour market, even though many employers have shown a preference for the promotion of existing employees.
