Business Definition for: Manpower Planning
- the development of strategies to match the supply of workers to the availability of jobs at organizational, regional, or national level.

At a national level, this may be conducted by government or industry bodies, and at an organizational level, by human resource managers. A more current term for manpower planning at organizational level is human resource planning.
