Assessing the organization's current workforce as part of an HR planning process involves:

Assessing the current workforce requires taking an inventory of employee skills and capabilities (D). At the SPHR level, workforce assessment focuses on internal supply analysis—what talent the organization currently has.

A skills and capability inventory identifies strengths, gaps, depth, and readiness, forming the foundation for workforce planning, succession planning, and reskilling strategies.

Market conditions (A) are part of external analysis. Training reviews (B) and supervisor surveys (C) may provide input but do not replace systematic skills inventory.

SPHR exam content emphasizes that effective HR planning starts with a clear understanding of internal talent supply.
