HR is one of the most important departments of an organization. Monitoring and tracking all employees, managing business resources, and working in close collaboration with administration makes HR a key department of any business. Today, technological advancements in various business sectors have brought remarkable developments in the HR management world. Here, we present 4 technological trends, which are likely to continue through 2018.
Mobile Access
The HR solution access from smart hand-held devices is one of the trends which help the HR department and each employee to keep real-time track of HR activities. It’s a centralized solution that brings employees to a common platform and enables them to gain remote access via smart devices. Employees will have access to personal information, benefits, and pay stubs. Employees can view their time off balances and apply for leave from anywhere, anytime using their smartphones. Managers can view the requests and approve/reject time off requests on the go.
Data-driven Decisions
Data-driven systems help with making strategic decisions within a business. While automating routine tasks, HR teams also highlight capturing proper employee data to know their key areas of interests, skills, and expertise. Knowing such talents of their workforce help managers assign the right job to the most deserving candidates.
With more online data, security becomes a major concern for HR teams. In various organizations, data security is still a barrier that prevents the workforce from accessing online data from remote devices. Organizations are on the lookout for ways to improve their online security and make things clear and transparent.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
With the advancement in technology, the present day employees work more with their machines, than their team. Current work techniques have inspired the concept of AI. Today’s workforce likes automated systems, auto-generated data, and accepts the help of such technologies to perform their day-to-day activities. In all workforce management tasks, artificial intelligence is becoming more common across companies.
Customized Cloud Solutions
HR functions are mostly dependent and influenced by the strategic mission and goals of an organization. To bring HR needs in line with the overall business vision and work in close collaboration to meet the needs, organizations consider custom HR management software that will work best for fulfilling their responsibilities.
