Define whistle-blowing.
Whistle-blowing is the disclosure by an organization's member (current or former) of illegal, immoral, or illegitimate practices to persons or organizations able to take corrective action.
Differentiate internal from external whistle-blowing.
Internal whistle-blowing reports wrongdoing to someone within the organization (e.g., a superior); external whistle-blowing reports it to outside parties such as regulators, media, or the public.

Analyzing organizational objectives, forecasting HR demand, forecasting HR supply (internal & external), identifying the gap, and formulating action plans (recruitment, training, redeployment).
Differentiate recruitment from selection.
Recruitment is the positive process of searching for and attracting a pool of prospective candidates to apply; selection is the negative process of screening and choosing the most suitable candidate from that pool.
List common internal and external sources of recruitment.

Induction is the process of welcoming and introducing a newly selected employee to the organization, its policies, culture, job, and colleagues to help them settle in quickly.

Training is short-term, job-specific, and aims to improve current skills (focus on present); development is long-term, broad, career-oriented growth of the whole person (focus on future), more relevant for managers.

Job analysis is the systematic process of collecting information about a job's duties and requirements. Its two outputs are the Job Description (duties/responsibilities of the job) and Job Specification (qualifications/skills required of the jobholder).
Differentiate job description from job specification.
Job description states the tasks, duties, and responsibilities of the job (job-oriented); job specification states the minimum qualifications, skills, and personal attributes a person needs to perform it (person-oriented).
What is job evaluation and what is its purpose?
Job evaluation is the systematic process of determining the relative worth of jobs in an organization to establish a rational and equitable pay/wage structure.
Name the four main methods of job evaluation.
Non-analytical: Ranking method and Job Grading/Classification method. Analytical: Point Rating (point factor) method and Factor Comparison method.

What this deck covers
The Unit - II deck follows the UGC NET Management Unit - II syllabus — 2 chapters and 14 topics — so questions land on material that is genuinely examinable rather than trivia around it. That works out to roughly 25.5 cards per chapter.
Answers are written to be recallable, not just readable — averaging about 184 characters, which is long enough to carry the reasoning and short enough to say out loud.
A deck like this earns its keep on the second and third pass. Read the syllabus first so you know the shape of the subject, then use the cards to find the specific facts that have not stuck.
