Adjustment of a given age distribution to a desired
age distribution within a required time frame is dynamically
performed for the purpose of Human Resource (HR) planning
in Human Resource Management (HRM). The adjustment
process is carried out by adding the adjustment magnitudes to
the existing number of employees at the selected age groups on
the yearly basis. A model of a discrete dynamical system is
employed to emulate the evolution of the age distribution used
under the adjustment process. Genetic Algorithms (GA) is
applied for determining the adjustment magnitudes that
influence the dynamics of the system. An interesting aspect
of the problem lies in the high number of constraints;
though the constraints are fundamental, they are
considerably higher in number than in many other
optimization problems. An adaptive penalty scheme is
proposed for handling the constraints. Numerical
examples show that GA with the utilized adaptive penalty
scheme provides potential means for HR planning in HRM.
