In Dept 1, an Allocation Board is to be kept which shows vacancies. This Board is a piece of cardboard which shows all Divs and Depts of the Org Board aligned much as the Org Board. It is kept by Personnel Control and when a request for a staff member comes in, the Personnel Control 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 Dept where the vacancy is. The same action is taken when an ED comes out in which new personnel is authorized, and these are taken up at once, with all priority.
