Top management at Reisener Corporation are looking to improve productivity in corporate staff functions. One area targeted for the initiative is the Human Resources (HR) department. The following data were collected for three relatively routine actions for the most recent period: hiring, separations, and transfers (within Reisner facilities).

Required

a. Compute the partial productivity measures for labor for the three actions.
