Abstract :-

The traditional method to find manpower is that customers must find people who are good at their work and have to get the conclusion based on comments of other people. Resources to respond to their populations’ demand for services are often inadequate and the distribution of human resources is generally poorly balanced between urban and rural areas.  Manpower is an essential fact in the modern world. People need various kind of manpower such as masons, plumbers, landscape architects, carpenters etc.in order to fulfil their daily needs. The shortcoming of manpower repulses the people from day to day activities. People in Sri Lanka face the challenge of finding human resources for manpower. In this fast-paced society, the hectic lifestyle has disrupted the work-life balance. There is no systematic process of manpower management and selecting manpower to get the things done. The aim of this research is to provide a solution for manpower management. The proposed solution is focusing on implementing the web-based system for manpower management to solve the issues with searching human resources. This web-based application can provide details of employees in different work fields such as masons, plumbers, housekeepers, landscape designers, electricians etc. It allows the customer to check the employees’ details in order to book them and workers would be able to get the customer details through their profiles on the proposed system (Bass.lk) Also the system provides eligibility check past projects of employees. The rating system of customers and workers provide support for decision making before making an appointment. The web-based solution is suggested to provide location-based appointment service in order to witness the cost of effective technological advantages in their decision-making activities.
