Purpose The purpose of this study is to propose a contemporary human resource management (HRM) framework by zakat institutions, which collect and manage religious alms, both obligatory (zakat) and voluntary (ṣadaqah), in Malaysia. Design/methodology/approach In doing so, discussions pertaining to the key elements of zakat institutions’ HRM including recruitment, selection, performance appraisal, training and development and compensation are gathered from the existing literature and other sources of information such as zakat institutions’ websites and publications. In addition, zakat officers’ insight on how HRM is practiced at their institutions is gathered through a series of semi-structured interviews and incorporated in the findings of this study. Findings The paper finds that the state government, by virtue of the State Islamic Religious Council (SIRC), which is the sole trustee of all waqf properties in Malaysia, may have significant influence in formulating the human resource strategies and policies in zakat institutions. Research limitations/implications The proposed HRM model can be a useful reference for SIRC in enhancing the current human resource practice in its respective zakat institutions. Originality/value The novelty of this study lies in the proposed HRM model applicable to zakat institutions. The model emphasizes the alignment between the zakat institutions’ HRM practice and their zakat collection and distribution goals, as well as zakat management objectives in general.

Supply Analysis

Modelling processes are being introduced to improve the integration of various resource management objectives. As a mechanism to protect non-timber values, the BC Ministry of Forests has implemented forest cover constraints which place area-based maximum and minimum limits on harvest disturbance and old growth retention, respectively, within forest management zones. Timberline Forest Inventory Consultants has developed a proprietary model that explicitly deals with resource demands such as visual quality objectives, habitat protection measures, and water quality protection guidelines. The model uses a pseudo-geographic inventory to simulate the intent of forest cover constraints on harvesting. A variable degree of spatial resolution is available depending on inventory formulation and management zone definition. Key words: British Columbia, integrated resource management, modelling, forest cover constraints, spatial resolution
